Damn, he was one of my favorites. In a day where movies come and go, and so do the actors.....Gene Wilder was a classic. He will surely be missed. Reunited with Gilda.
Off Topic..........but RIP Gene Wilder:(

Provided great entertainment to millions over the years.

Loved Gene Wilder. Can't leave out Dr. Frankenstein (of course pronounced Fronkensteen).
Heck no you can't!!! CLASSIC!! Makes me wonder what Gene Hackman is up to these days??? The younger generation may never know what they are missing.
So many great roles and so much laughter. There is a ongoing debate between my friends as to whether they would ever be able to remake Blazing Saddles today. Then again it would be hard to believe anyone could make it better.
I almost forgot about The Women in Red, See no Evil Hear no Evil, and this one......
Haunted Honeymoon (with wife Gilda Radner and Dom Deluise)
He could crack me up with just a facial reaction. Watched The Producers and Stir Crazy last night. Loved that guy.
Speaking of Gene Hackman, his role as a blind man in Young Frankenstein is one of the funniest scenes in that movie.
Of course Gene Wilder was the nervous undertaker Eugene Grissard in Bonnie and Clyde.
When I was an undergraduate I had a job for two summers as a teller for a large bank in a branch on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. Gene Wilder was a customer of the bank and would often come in to transact business. Despite his fame, he was always low-key, polite and very friendly to the staff. That was not always the case with other customers. We always enjoyed seeing him as he had a nice word for everyone.
I was saddened to hear of his death. He was a truly nice guy.

maybe a forgotten reason for tribute to Mr. Wilder......providing the source for introducing the raving beauty, Kelly LeBrock, to the general public. Sadly, back to work.....
Thanks to all the other posters' good wishes and fond memories....
