Who eles here loves the comedy pair of Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor and whats your fav movie the 2 have been in together? and what your fav they have been in single?

I think there both great single actors and Fatastic working together, the best movie comedy pair EVER ;) .

I got the Richard Pryor movie boxset with

Car Wash
Stir Crazy
Brewster's Millions
See No Evil Hear No Evil

Them movies are in the boxset with Stir Crazy and See No Evil, Hear No Evil my 2 favs, that they been in together great movies to have in your dvd collection

As in movie without each other my favs:

Gene Wilder: Willy Wonka and the choc factory :D

Richard Pryor: Brewster's Millions :cool:

Wish Richard Pryor was still with us, but his movies and stand up shows will always make me laugh and smile ;)
 
I remember Silver Streak being very good - funny as well as being a great thriller - I'd like to see it again.
My favourite Gene Wilder film has to be Young Frankenstein.
 
Silver streak is hilarious, i also love stir crazy.

I had no idea they weren't frienRAB either, wow that is a shock

I love gene in willy wonka,, superb
and richard in brewster's millions
 
Can't say I'm that surprised. From what I've read Richard Pryor wasn't that nice a person in real life although no one can doubt his comic genius.
 
Young Frankenstein. I love it! The dance number is my ringtone, starting off with Gene's speech... "From what was one an inarticulate mass of lifeles tissues.... may I now present a cultured, sophisticated, man about town.... HIT IT!" and on into the song itself. Sometimes I don't answer my phone purposely until after Peter Boyle has screamed "Puttin' on the Ritz!"

Paddy :D
 
Not forgetting Richard Pryor's turn in Superman 3. Okay, not the best movie in the world, but I still thought he was endearing as the put-upon, luckless Gus Gorman.

Favourite line went something along the lines of 'I don't wanna go jail...there are robbers and rapists, and rapists who rape robbers...':D
 
I Love the Richard Pryor LIVE in concert dvd, that has to be one of the most funny stand up shows EVER, fantastic dvd to have. :D

Got the Richard Pryor book aswell called, Pryor Covictions and been readin that and wow i know he had hard life and tuke drugs but readin the book i never knew it was so bad.

He was high and stoned and stuff while doin the movie Stir Crazy and alot of his other films.
 
The pairing seemed to work rather well and they just bonded and came out naturally within their films. I know Pryor liked the drugs and heard that even as a close friend of his, you never knew where you was with him.

PRIOR / WALLY: You mean I'm not white ? Does mum know ?. There's a lot of adjustments that need to be made...



Nice t*t shot in that too :p
