Oklahoma Jewish Film Festival - Remembering Gene Wilder

This heartfelt documentary takes a close look at the endearing comic genius of Gene Wilder, from his Jewish upbringing in Milwaukee, to his early stage work, to his breakthrough collaborations with Mel Brooks and Richard Pryor, to his marriage to Gilda Radner. Using a variety of touching and hilarious clips and outtakes; never-before-seen home movies; narration from Wilder’s audiobook memoir; and interviews from collaborators including Mel Brooks, Alan Alda, and Carol Kane, this film celebrates one of the most beloved stars of his era—performer, writer, director, and all-around mensch.
