Richard Lewis knows a little bit about pain—and has always made hilarious, neurotic, surprisingly honest comedy out of it. The comedian gave VF an exclusive interview to talk about the final season of Curb Your Enthusiasm, but the conversation ended up roaming far and wide. The past few years have been difficult for Lewis, because of a series of surgeries and a diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease. Despite it all, he’s as vibrant and sharp as ever, and his virtually lifelong friendship with Larry David sounds stronger than ever: “I can’t tell you how loving he is—the best friend you could ever imagine.” Dive into a great, and candid, conversation.
