In celebration of Black History Month Filmmaker’s Lounge, hosted and curated by Kevin Epps, will show Which Way Is Up? (1977, 94 min.) with Richard Pryor.
Richard Pryor plays a landmark role—actually, three roles—in this comedy, which has gained cult status among Pryor fans. Orange-picker Leroy Jones finds himself fired from his job and alienated from his friends and family as a result of accidentally joining a union strike.
The film is shown at 3:30pm, followed by Q&A with screenwriter Cecil Brown.
The event is free, but seating is limited and first come, first served.
