Richard Pryor Dies at 65
December 11th, 2005 at 2:58 am
I just read the sad news that comedy legend Richard Pryor passed away at Encino hospital near Los Angeles due to a heart attack. I grew up really enjoying Pryor’s films, even “Brewsters Millions” which Pryor himself didn’t really like. I loved the very un-PC “See No Evil, Hear No Evil”, but I think my favourite performance was in “Superman III”. I remember feeling really sad for his character as well as laughing out loud.
Pryor famously battled with alcohol and other drugs for many years, but I think on balance, history will remember him as simply a great comic and comic actor. So long Richard.
