Gene Wilder was one of the best comedic actor's ever.
He was charming and funny even when he thought he wasnt.
He was the every man in films,that somehow ended up in crazy situations,fortunately
for some of these crazy situations he teamed up with one of the greatest comedians ever Richard Pryor.It was pure gold when they were together.
The Woman in Red is one of my favorites of all time.Wilder portrayed Teddy Pierce
a guy who slowly finds out that sometimes the fantasy of an affair is far better than the
affair itself.
Silver Streak,Young Frankenstein,Blazing Saddles ,The Producers these are just some of his films
that just showed 50% of his gifts,a writer and producer and such a loving husband to the late great Gilda Radner
Just like his partner for four films Pryor there will never be another like him.

Another one of my favorite scenes....
Yeah. There were a gang of famous people on the walls of my high school that graduated from there. Good ol Washington High School. I just always remembered Gene's pic because I LOVED Willy Wonka.
R.I.P Gene Wilder. He as in some of my favourite movies growing up.
Rest peacefully Gene...
Never saw Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory until last year...maybe that's why I turned out the way I did.
However, him and Pryor were "must see tv" for me as a kid. Straight HILARITY!

Man, Listen...I had no idea AND that was my first thought. Hollywood aka Tinseltown, wasn't haven't it back then.
2+0+1+6=9, the number of completion. There are more to come and I shudder to think who they may be...there are 4 months of this madness left.
Dude was funny
RIP...
