One of the greatest comedic screen actors ever, as well as stage actor and author, Gene Wilder, has passed away at the age of 83 losing the fight to complications from Alzheimer’s Disease.
Here he is circa 1979 from a rare interview clip on the Merv Griffin show...
Look out for his memoir, Kiss Me Like a Stranger: My Search for Love and Art which was released in 2005. Also check out his three novels, My French Whore, The Woman Who Wouldn't and Something to Remember You By: A Perilous Romance and his short story collection What Is This Thing Called Love?
Gene Wilder was one of a kind and he'll be sorely missed...
