I just read what Jim Carrey tweeted and could not agree more:
"Gene Wilder was one of the funniest and sweetest energies ever to take a human form. If there's a heaven he has a Golden Ticket."
Sad to see him go. Spielberg wanted him for Ready Player One but he was to ill to take it. My favourite Wilder is probably The Producers. Silver Streak is one of the earliest films I remember seeing in a theatre. One of the great comic actors of all time.
I was once in bed with my then companion with both of us engaged in an amorous activity, when she decided she wanted to watch the OTA broadcast of the Producers while continuing the previously mentioned amorous activity at the same time. So we had to rearrange the positioning in order to have the TV in our respective sight lines. I was doing OK until this number.
