Description

For 4 decades movie funnyman Gene Wilder has been keeping audiences in stitches with his combination of over-the-top neurosis and sweet vulnerability. Gene sits down with Alec Baldwin for an intimate conversation about matters both professional and personal, including Wilder's first meeting with Mel Brooks, the time Zero Mostel kissed him on the lips just before his audition for Brooks' The Producers, and his marriage to SNL star Gilda Radner.
