Richard Pryor has passed away at age 65. I really enjoyed a lot of his movies. He has been fighting Multiple Sclerosis since 1986. RIP Richard

that was "See No Evil, Hear No Evil" .... very funny, loved the icecream cones on the bench, and the opening scene where they almost got run over and they yelled, WHERE YOU FROM, OSHKOSH?.... close to home as Gene Wilder is a Milwaukee native....
