Sad that Gene Wilder has passed away. I especially LOVED his role in the chocolate factory, although I was scared to death of them little Oompa Loompa's and couldn't sleep by myself for months after that frightening oompa loompa song.

RIP Gene.

I know : ( It seems like that generation of people we loved is slowly getting out of here. I remember Gene and Richard Pryor acting in several movies together. He will be remembered and missed.

You bringing up Richard Pryor ahhh reminds me of their movie, Blazing Saddles & See No Evil, Hear No Evil. Comical films, some of the best in entertainment.

Nikki "The Crazie Betty" V. So sad. I was a big fan of Young Frankenstein and the movies he did with Richard Pryor. Such a great actor.

That's right! How could I forget all about Frankenstein. They used to play that off and on all through the late 70's & all through the 80's.
