Here’s a blurb about the screening from Filmindependent:
For February, the hundredth year celebration of Paramount Pictures continues with two films featuring Richard Pryor, both directed by Sidney J. Furie and teaming Pryor with Billy Dee Williams. The first film is 1972’s Lady Sings the Blues—it’s the movie’s 40th anniversary—the Billie Holiday biopic starring Diana Ross, Williams and introduced Pryor to the mainstream audiences.
The second film is the 1973 action Hit!, in which Pryor is part of a team assigned by CIA agent Billy Dee Williams to avenge the death of his daughter at the hand of drug dealers—a mission that takes the group to Marseilles to achieve its goal.
