These guys go down with legends- laurel & hardy, Gleason & Carney, Abbot & Costello, & of course Pryor & Wilder. Funny thing is most of the films as a whole weren’t that good but their chemistry made even a bad film worth watching.
No you are wrong... Mel Brooks does get the proper credit, he was a genius! You can not over looks his classic movies or roles! Mel Brooks that's a slap in his face to say hes underrated.
Yes i definitely agree,they definitely created comedy magic in all their movies together. One of the prime examples is the bathroom scene in Silver streak!
@@UnashamedlyGodSquad I think you missed a key takeaway from what made his improvisations work. It's not about being the cleverest performer or least unforgettable.
@@indzone12 - I don';t know that much about Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor. I guess you seem to claim you do. So I guess in real life they really weren't good friends. But I guess they didn't hate each other either.
Gene once said that he and Pryor were not good friends off screen the way most people thought, despite their great chemistry on screen. Their collaboration on screen was some of the best. RIP Richard Pryor
"Mens rea!?! What do you mean I have mens rea! How did I get it?! Is there a cure? Is there a pill I can take?" I almost peed in my pants from laughing so hard the first time I saw that in Hear No Evil See No Evil.
The two of them are brilliant, Some of the best comedy films I've seen consists of them both, I've literally been in tears with them because their that funny. Im only 23, I didn't grow up watching them but I wish I I did, Ive saw more than enough of their films to know they truly were amazing actors and will be missed by millions. Thank you for the laughs my man, You're a buzz!!!
Used to like blue streak but Martin Lawrence tries too hard to be funny, he should have relaxed more and that film will never be Beverly Hills cop in my opinion. Silver Streak was excellent.
Wilder and Pryor did a very good job in there movies, my favorite one was stir crazy. I have that and see no evil here no evil on DVD. R.i.p. Richard Pryor
I’ve never seen this video. I love Gene more than any actor anywhere at any time. He was such a beautiful genius. He truly was peerless. Thank you for posting this video!
gene wilder and Richard Pryor were of their times and ahead of their times truly unique talents we will never see the likes of them again and the worlds poorer for it xx
My favorite movie was Silver Strek. Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor worked so well together and made the movie such a hit. Loved watching the two work together.
I absolutely love Gene Wilder. He's an original. There's a sweetness and gentleness to him and then those wild crazy faces he does. Silver Streak is one of my favs
I don't like old movies but Gêne Wilder sure knew how to make us laugh over and over again and than the chemistry between him and Richard was hilarious. Too bad they didnt made more movies together because they where a very good comedy duo. R.i.P Gêne Wilder.
Today, this awesome person,actor and wonderful comedian passed away.... R.I.P Gene, one of the greatest ones / El día de hoy oficialmente se ha anunciado su muerte que en paz descanse un grande
brilliant advice for young actors, sometimes you need to let go of the ego, and if someone says a fantastic line when improvising, say the most natural mundane thing to help bring that line out...don't kill the idea, don't try to top the idea!
Great advice. I see this often in office work with guys also. Too many try to be the funny dude, but then, someone else tries to outdo him. Instead of outdoing the other guy, just let him roll and say something that compliments his his remark, not degrade it.
They were AWESOME together. We watched Stir Crazy with our kids two weeks ago and they loved and laughed throughout the whole movie. That is one of my top 15 movies of all time
I was born on Gene's birthday and he has always been one of my favourite comedians regardless of that fact. Richard Pryor also sits amongst the Gods of Comedy.
Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor definitely made each other better actors, comedians and ultimately better people in general. His interview highlights the incredible chemistry and undeniable humor that existed between these two genius legends. These men had tremendous passion for their crafts and it naturally comes across in each of their performances, always complimenting each other’s talents! Insanely gifted human beings who will be cherished and missed.
Two of the GREATS. If Gene is talking about that scene from the movie Silver Streak, I was standing behind the movie camera talking to Scatman Crothers a co star in the film, a really nice guy.
the scenes in stir crazy where gene is laughing clearly at pryors antics, but incorporates the laughter into the character instead, like some sort of nervous tick is just genious. one of my all tme favorite movies
What a great comedian. I miss him immensely. Terry Garr was interviewed several years back and said he was the worst person to work with that he was very mean. Hard to believe but she was dead serious. Maybe she had the attitude.

Mr. Wilder and Mr. Pryor were, in my opinion, one of the funniest comedy duos ever. They just seemed to have the right magic between them.
ptick16 ghh
Yes they were without a doubt
These guys go down with legends- laurel & hardy, Gleason & Carney, Abbot & Costello, & of course Pryor & Wilder. Funny thing is most of the films as a whole weren’t that good but their chemistry made even a bad film worth watching.
Hear no evil , see no evil , was well written , hilarious comic genius!!!
Proof humans can get along.
The death of Richard Pryor + Gene Wilder marked the end of an era in comedy
Completely Agree.
And Rodney dangerfield
They had such a great chemistry together
So True 😔
Everybody dies. Duh
Gene Wilder doesnt get enough credit for how funny he really was...Mel brooks either
+Take this L;Ron Hubbard gene fix your hair
No you are wrong... Mel Brooks does get the proper credit, he was a genius! You can not over looks his classic movies or roles!
Mel Brooks that's a slap in his face to say hes underrated.
Why do you say that?
@@rphanmurphy8385 he's not too bright
Mel Brooks is a total genius, adorable
Two Legends... glad I got to grow up watching these guys in their prime.
Because no one else can?
R.I.P...SUCH A KIND AND GENTLE SOUL..YOU WILL BE MISSED..
J ÅÝ This is Gene Wilder, not Bill Cosby. You obviously commented on the wrong video.
Green N Gold 4 Life No u obviously don't know ur boy likes young boys
All my heroes are villains go look yourself you butt hurt. Idolizing these people for what??
Gene and Richard created comedy magic together. I never laughed so hard than I did during 'Hear No Evil, See No Evil'. I miss them both.
I have Stir Crazy See No Evil Hear No Evil and Brewster's Millions on dvd really good films
My best bit is at the end when it's revealed how short the time is that they've been together.
One of THE MOST underrated movies EVER!!!!! MENS REA?? Lol. Keep your eyes on the road. Oh, if it'll make you feel better. LMAO!!!
I suppose a fuck is out of the question 😂😂😂
Yes i definitely agree,they definitely created comedy magic in all their movies together. One of the prime examples is the bathroom scene in Silver streak!
Well he is in his 80's,and who cares how old or what he looks like,he'll always be a comedy genius in my eyes
Daaamn, reading this 7 years later with Gene Wilder now long gone leaves a dark, heavy and empty space in the reader's soul.
Well said
A great man. 🙏

Gene Wilder is One of a Kind. Its so sad that he is dead, but he has gotten the Golden Ticket and now he is with his bestfriend Richard Pryor
He wasn't that close a friend.pryor called him a faggot but tbf he was on coke at the time
@@roblaa3198 Pryor got balls calling anyone a faggot. Look it up
You mean Gilda.....
They were never that close. Know your shit man
@@indzone12 - I don';t know that much about Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor. I guess you seem to claim you do. So I guess in real life they really weren't good friends. But I guess they didn't hate each other either.
His voice never changed....
lol,,,good observation.
To the people commenting on how he looks....he's over 80 years old!
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!!!!!! He don't go 😂
@H M normal
I do not see any negative comments at all.
He looks good being 80yrs old here
Died at 83 so he would be 74 in this . Interview done 2007 . Died 2016
Two absolute legends. The world's a darker place without them
Just the mere sight of Mr Wilder brings a smile to my face. God Bless and r.i.p Mr Wilder.
Wilder and Pryor were the last great comedic duo in American cinemas.
Such a beautiful man! I've always loved and admired him, on and offscreen. He has such a grace about him that is so very rare. It's blinding
That is the word I have reached for unsuccessfully! Yes. A rare grace.
+Jeniferlyn He truly does seem like a very nice man. I always felt bad for him losing his wife.
Gene once said that he and Pryor were not good friends off screen the way most people thought, despite their great chemistry on screen. Their collaboration on screen was some of the best. RIP Richard Pryor
I miss the hell out of these guys. Great comedy and incredible chemistry
Hear no evil see no evil stir crazy are 2 of the funniest films ever made. That scene in stir crazy when they try to act tough 😂😂😂
"Mens rea!?! What do you mean I have mens rea! How did I get it?! Is there a cure? Is there a pill I can take?" I almost peed in my pants from laughing so hard the first time I saw that in Hear No Evil See No Evil.

It's a shame today's generation won't know or don't even know who the comic geniuses of Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor really were.
The two of them are brilliant, Some of the best comedy films I've seen consists of them both, I've literally been in tears with them because their that funny.

Gene and Pryor were a great team! loved these guys acting together. Pryor was a comedic genius who had a sad personal life, but shined on camera! RIP
these two guys were screen magic together...I've never laughed so hard since Blue Streak and stir Crazy.
silver streak
eww blue streak is that horrible cop movie with Martin Lawrence and Luke Wilson. As the other guy pointed out you mean silver streak
Used to like blue streak but Martin Lawrence tries too hard to be funny, he should have relaxed more and that film will never be Beverly Hills cop in my opinion. Silver Streak was excellent.

They were one of the greatest comedy teams of all time.
Martin and Lewis, Laurel and Hardy, Abbott and Costello, Wilder and Pryor. The 4 horsemen duos of comedy.
They were AWESOME together. We watched Stir Crazy with our kids two weeks ago and they loved and laughed throughout the whole movie.
That is one of my top 15 movies of all time
They made such a great team in movies. See No Evil, Hear No Evil is my all time favorite.
amazing legendary man 🙏
Taken so early, another blessed, talented legendary icon passes on. Ill keep watching his work, R.I.P Gene.
85 aint bad man but ino what you mean its fuckin heavy 2016 has been a fuckin bitch
I sure miss seeing both him and Mr. Pryor in film. Amazing comedians that brought so much joy.
Two genius comics now and forever.
I will cry like a baby when its GOD'S time to take him. I was born in the 60's and I love movies and Gene is in so many of my fav. of all time.
I was born on Gene's birthday and he has always been one of my favourite comedians regardless of that fact. Richard Pryor also sits amongst the Gods of Comedy.

Aye yer right gene!.
It's called talent!. And you both had it in buckets!.
RIP.
Two absolute legends and hereos of American history.
I'm young but I love these old, classic comedians. My dad introduced me to them. Good humor and lots of truth to life.
Lovely. Stir crazy
I know when I watched them worked together it was Golden. Great comical chemistry.
He was always so nice :) Thats why I always loved him
One of the greatest actors hands down along with Richard Pryor
What a great comedian. I miss him immensely. Terry Garr was interviewed several years back and said he was the worst person to work with that he was very mean. Hard to believe but she was dead serious. Maybe she had the attitude.
