I'm a huge fan of Wilder...I remember a for-tv play in the seventies that has since disappeared..."Scarecrow"...it was one of his first performances. Excellent! Wish I could find it.
I love Gene in "The Producers" and "The Frisco Kid," and "Young Frankenstein" of course.
I am a big fan of Wilder's as well. One of my favorite movies of his is Frisco Kid with Harrison Ford...from 'back in the day' (late seventies)....about a Polish rabbi being sent to the Jewish community in San Francisco in the 1800s.
