RICHARD PRYOR: OMIT THE LOGIC
May 31, 2013  | By David Bianculli

Showtime, 9:00 p.m. ET

 
This new film biography is directed by Marina Zenovich, who previously directed a pair of documentaries on another controversial character, Roman Polanski. And in telling the story of Pryor, one of his generation’s most talented and influential comics, Zenovich calls upon some very impressive and persuasive witnesses, including Mel Brooks, Dave Chappelle, Chris Rock, Bob Newhart, and Lily Tomlin.
