Cardona provided a list of statistics on the Salvadoran people, and said that 75 percent of the people earn less than $10 a month, half of the children in El Salvador die before age 5 and the per capita income in El Salvador is the lowest in Central America^ "It is the kind of conditions we have been fighting and struggling for a long time to change." Cardona said. The FDR-FMLN-backed revolution is trying to overthrow the military- backed government to try lo redistribute some of the nation's wealth, Cardona said. He claims that redistribution of land is of upmost importance, since ownership is restricted. Mobllipation against the government is now nearly impossible. Cardona said, because the people fear repercussions. "The FDR wouldn't go along with ihe elections because they felt they were fraudulent." Cardona said. "It was clear if they had not voted, if they did not have a stamp on their card (that showed they voted), their paycheck would be refused, or their children kicked out of school, or become possible victims of Cardona also c zed U.S. i a!d the r move of the Reagan administration was the landing of 5,400 troops in Honduras.

This is in many ways a different Richard Pryor. He is no longer the nervous, hyper young stand-up comic spouting obscenities at half-drunk crowds in smoke-filled nightclubs. This is Richard Pryor at the apex of bis form: a more relaxed, mellow Pryor. Even his harsh vocabulary has undergone a metamorphosis of sons. It is no longer used for its shock value, but rather as a kind of anesthesia to put his audience in the proper mode of thought Eddie Murphy pales in comparison to this Richard Pryor. My only problem with Richard Pryor, Here and Now was the film's assembly. The editing was somewhat crude, and many times the blunt-ended jump from one camera angle to another, and from one reel to another was a bit distracting. There is also a short segment at the beginning that treats us to a few personal, backstage glimpses of Pryor. but it passes by much too quickly. Despite the minor flaws, I like this •one — enough to quote one of Pryor's one-liners at. the beginning of my review. I suggest watching it with a Urge audience for full impact, but it s enjoyable with a small one.
