Funny

Stand-up comedy doesn't always age well. Too many then current references can feel dated when it's watched years later. "Richard Pryor: Live in Concert" doesn't feel dated at all. It feels as fresh and funny now as it was then. This movie even had my twenty year old ("I hate stand-up comedy") daughter laughing. That's no neat trick.

Before he burst into flames

This is one of the very first taped stage comedy of Richard Pryor. Shot in Long Beach, California in 1970's, Richard Pryor's Live in Concert is one of the all time greats. Pryor's comedic style comes out like fire in this comedic stand up. From his antics about sex and nature, to his wild and crazy comments about "white people," Pryor is amazing. Entertaining and true, it is a stand up comedy for the ages.
