Synopsis:

Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder were two of American cinema's best-loved comic actors, and this box set collects three of their classic collaborations.

In Stir Crazy , Skip (Wilder) and Harry (Pryor) are sentenced to 125 years for a bank robbery they didn't commit and must rely on each other to survive in a maximum-security prison. In See No Evil, Hear No Evil , blind Wally (Pryor) and deaf Dave (Wilder) team up to foil a murderous gang of thieves. Finally, in Another You , compulsive liar George (Wilder) is mistaken for the heir to a fortune, to the delight of conman Eddie (Pryor).

This essential three-disc collection features an array of fascinating contextualizing extras, including newly recorded commentaries, interviews, and critical appreciations, as well as a 100-page book containing new and archival writings. Strictly limited to 6,000 individually numbered units.
