He was born Jerome Silberman to an assimilated Milwaukee Jewish family. His childhood buddies called him Jerry. But to millions of filmgoers, he was Gene Wilder, the extraordinary comic genius who put his singular mark on films including The Producers, Blazing Saddles, and Young Frankenstein. Told in part through Wilder’s own voice—he recorded an audiobook of his memoir— Remembering Gene Wilder showcases some of Wilder’s most memorable movie lines—“Put..the candle…back,” along with touching home movies and outtakes from the movie set. You’ll want to binge-watch Wilder’s whole career after this delightful tribute
Film introduction by Executive Producer Julie Nimoy.
