Richard Pryor was the king of stand-up comedy in the 1970s. Hollywood studios were eager to transfer his dynamic humour and personality from the stand-up stage to the big screen. But, as it turned out, Pryor's film acting inspired far less acclaim than his stand-up performances. How did this happen? The book is designed to examine this matter in a comprehensive film-by-film analysis.
