"STIR CRAZY (Sidney Poitier, 1980)
SEE NO EVIL, HEAR NO EVIL (Arthur Hiller, 1989)
ANOTHER YOU (Maurice Phillips, 1991)
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 newly remastered versions of all three films, accompanied by an array of fascinating contextualising 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."
