In a quasi-homage to Hitchcock, Wilder plays George Caldwell, who falls for the lovely Hilly (Jill Clayburgh) and finds himself mixed up in art fraud, missing letters of Rembrandt, and murder. Not only that, he keeps getting thrown off of the train. One of those times, he meets up with a criminal, Grover Muldoon (Pryor) who happens to be in the police car he steals. In the funniest scene in the film, Grover has George buy the cap, shoe polish, sunglasses and radio from a shoe polisher at the train station and makes George a black jiver so he can get by the feds.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are lots of funny scenes in this film, but the best part of it is the chemistry between Wilder and Pryor, who became a successful screen team. This, however, is their best teaming. The bad guys are great. McGoohan and Walston act as if they’re in a heavy duty suspense film, which makes them real and threatening. It works perfectly against the comic aspects of the film.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHitchcock fans will see this as a mild takeoff on “North by Northwest.” It is, but it stands on its own as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest teaming of Wilder and Pryor.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text show-more__control\"\u003eI see Silver Streak as a mild Hitchcock parody that is a nice little blend of comedy and mystery.Gene Wilder,while not at his absolute best,impresses nonetheless here.Jill Clayburgh is credible as the love interest.Yes it is the first film in which Wilder teamed with Richard Pryor,yet Wilder and Pryor are only together for a small percentage of the overall film.The film,though,has a strong enough foundation in terms of story and performances to where Pryor and Wilder do not really need to be together throughout.In fact,this is their best teaming ever despite that fact.To top it all off,the ending is a rather exciting one.A definite worthwhile watch.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003ca title=\"Carry On Jack\" href=\"https:\/\/rareandcollectibledvds.com\/product\/carry-on-jack\"\u003eCarry On Jack\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"FilmClassicsonDVD","offers":[{"title":"DOWNLOAD","offer_id":51487049253151,"sku":"sistr-2","price":10.94,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"DVD","offer_id":51487049285919,"sku":"sistr-1","price":12.94,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/0788\/5087\/files\/Silver-Streak-rareandcollectibledvds-940.jpg?v=1766640228","url":"https:\/\/filmclassicsondvd.com\/products\/silver-streak","provider":"FilmClassicsonDVD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
