Willy Wonka Actor (Gene Wilder) died...

Even in some of his best comedic roles he played true to character. One of my favorite Wilder movies was the Frisco Kid. Here is a great scene about his being a practicing Jew in the mid-1800's. There are a few minor swears, but nothing that wouldn't come through here I am pretty sure.

I love how Kinkkk tries to be Mr. Movie and then entitles this "Willy Wonka actor..." SMFH.
 
OL, it's not like if you had said "Gene Wilder passed away" people would have been like "who's that?"

When it's a lesser known actor who played a role in a well known movie it makes sense to make a reference to their best known work. But Gene Wilder? He made the movies he was in big, not the other way around. And he has been in several better movies than Willy Wonka.

May be it's a generational thing, I grew up watching him as Willy Wonka.... but as I'd said I just wanted to get foot traffic through the door first and foremost... no point having a thread nobody reads... but yes I'll take the feedback onboard.. thanks.
