On this day, November 17, 1989, the comedy-drama Harlem Nights premiered in theaters, bringing together comedy legends Eddie Murphy and Richard Pryor. Directed by Murphy himself, the film showcases a 1930s Harlem club owner’s struggle to keep his business afloat while dealing with rival gangsters and law enforcement. With a stellar cast and unforgettable comedic moments, Harlem Nights quickly became a memorable part of 80s cinema.

Did you catch Harlem Nights when it first came out, or have you seen it since?
