Gene Wilder film? On first reaction (knee-jerk variety) I would say Bonnie and Clyde but theres also Young Frankenstein, Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, any of the R.Pryor buddy films... lots of good stuff to choose from.

I love Gene Wilder, but most of my movie memories of him have been besmirched by Madeline Kahn. Ooooh, I hate her, in the same irrational and helpless way I hate Kate Bush. I know I should like them, but... GAH! It's that damned squeaking. Squeak squeak squeak!

Blazzing Saddles = 1974, and Richard Pryor is not in it.

Hate Kate Bush all you like, but don't knock Madeline Kahn. Oh wait, I take that back...IMDB says she was the voice of Draggle in the my little pony movie. ickety ick ick ick. ick.

at least he got writing credit. I think some of the producing (money) powers that be at the time found "psychological discomfort' (to plagarize Public Enemy) in giving a lot of creative and starring control to Pryor. Whenever I have seen Brooks in interviews about B Saddles, its never too long before he starts talkin Pryor.

I like Kate Bush. But I also had a thing for Enya for a while.
