@clubshayshaypod: "#RichardPryor's ex-wife wants to make it her story. I read her book 'A Fallen Angel.' Richard was abusive, and she wants it to be more about that. I met with Jennifer, and I was like, 'Look, Richard Pryor is #MalcolmX with punch lines. That's how Black people see him. They would lose their minds if they made this movie about you. You are a minuscule part of Richard Pryor to us, so you do yourself a disservice trying to make it this.'" - #DamonWayans #mikeepps #marlonwayans
He chose to leave his legacy in the control of a white woman

So his wife wanted a Tina Turner story where the story was around Ike’s abuse

Chadwick Boseman was able to show the genius of James Brown and also show he was abusive…

The James brown & Ray Charles films did a great job of showing that even with great talents, they were flawed & problematic in many ways. The stories can’t be toldfrom the view of a romantic partner.

He was so abusive not only to his ex-wife, but too many black, prominent female figures in the industry

I AGREE…Should it be mentioned YES he was wrong for that..should it be the main topic HELL NO..The backlash would eat her up worst than what she went through.

Y’all are not listening to understand. Richard Pryor was a comedian. Is whole life was tragic. But his story shouldn’t be just about how abusive he was. YES touch on it but that’s not who he was 100%

He was married 7 times to 5 women for a total of 12 years. Focusing on any one relationship would be a disservice to his life story.

richard pryor is one of my favourite comedians but dismissing his abuse is a major disservice to women

Wanting to tarnish his name after the fact instead of doing something while he was alive makes me wonder a whole lot

Hmmmmm so she wanted to tell the truth about a man and y’all saw it as reducing his life down to his mistakes and said no to protect his legacy. Got it. I understand both sides. Make both movies cause I’d watch. 😌
