Gene Wilder isn't dead. Like Robin Williams he will never die. His body may be gone but he will live forever in the hearts of the millions of people he touched

Because of your video, I just ordered Gene Wilder's book "Kiss Me Like A Stranger". I prefer reading books as to audio books, however thanks to you I have Gene's voice in my head and that will be how I read the book: With Gene's voice inside me head.

All 3 comedians are well loved and missed. R.I.P RICHARD, GILDA AND GENE.

I didn't think I was going to cry tears of happiness and sadness today but here we are.

As Gene Wilder's biographer, I am very critical of any tributes to him but this was exceptional in every way. Slickly produced, everything in the right place. This flowed beautifully and in just under a half hour you really captured Gene's essence. Excellent work, Joe!

This left me speechless. An absolutely stunning tribute to Gene and in some ways Gilda and Richard too. May they all rest in peace. I bet they are cracking each other up in heaven.

He is such a legend and a big part of my childhood from Willy Wonka to Young Frankenstein to all of the roles I loved him in.

Holy Moly, anything to do with this genius of acting is deeply appreciated. What you've done here is so special. "We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams." Heartfelt thanks for this.

I don't understand how you put out so many videos of this kind of quality. Do you have like a staff or something? This is incredible. 27 minutes?!

Perhaps it was because Gene Wilder didn't have a Hollywood face or a Hollywood voice at any point in his career, that I noticed him immediately and remembered him when I saw Bonnie and Clyde at the time of its release. He just stood out from everyone else. There was nothing smooth or accomplished in his speech and actions. He always seemed to have just thought of whatever he was saying, and to be doing whatever he was doing with perfect spontaneity. He was absolutely believable, sitting in the back seat of the car with a paper napkin tucked in his collar, holding a hamburger and announcing, in that matter-of-fact way, "I'm an undertaker." He did, indeed learn that lesson from Charlie Chaplin. Gene Wilder was a great actor because the audience never saw him act, only live the character he portrayed. Thanks, Joe!

I never knew that Gene went to such lengths for authenticity and kindness to the deaf and blind for See No Evil, Hear No Evil. He was truly one of a kind.

Is it weird that gene wilders voice reminds me and makes me nostalgic of my childhood? Growing up in the 80s he was always in a movie we were watching

I'm in tears, Sir :') It was so hard to lose Gene Wilder.... and i'm afraid if i read his biography and finish the book, i'll lose him again. I love your work and the way you approach your mini docus with so m,uch love and respect towards the people you are making them about and the movies.

Gene is one of my absolute favorite actors.

Also when he did his front roll in his intro scene I liked him immediately. Because he was like a child who likes to surprise people and keep them guessing.

Gene had an impact on so many people through his performances he will not be forgotten a true original.

Gene Wilder taking such joy in all the nuances of his life really makes me smile. If anybody deserved it, he did. What a kind, gentle soul.

Wilder is so right about children being underestimated by adults. Every move to “protect the children” is an excuse for adults to avoid their own discomfort. Wilder and Mostel were such great partners, esp in Rhinoceros, which remains a very timely story.

I've been here since the beginning, and I'll be damned if this isn't the best thing you've put together. Still waiting on that Something Wilder episode of Forgotten Failures!

Its amazing to think The Producer's was so early in his movie career. He was just so natural. Interesting fun fact. The drunk in The Producers played Grandpa to the Pete's in Pete & Pete and the Dad in the show was the guy Prior fought in Hear No Evil See No Evil. 6 degrees at work.

I miss this lovely man. He brought a whole lot of joy into my life. I am certain my broken heart is not alone.

Criminally underrated content. Plz keep it coming.

I love this episode because it uses Gene Wilder's actual narration - and it's because compared to his manic comedic roles, his narration sounds so melancholy and sad... like a man reflecting on his life knowing the end is near. Makes me wonder when he recorded his autobiography.

Kiss me like a stranger is one of my all time favorite autobiographies. He was such an amazing man. One that only comes along every so often every few generations. It’s the best audiobook especially for any Gene Wilder fan

Watching Gene as a young boy, It was an argument with my Father with my mom's approval that we wouldn't watch SNF on ABC and would watch the TV debut of Willy Wonka! Even my Dad, who said it's dumb instilled in me to dream about anything film. I absolutely adore Gene Wilder and Disney's Toby Goes To The Circus! Two very real films that set my soul on fire! ❤ 🙏 The Right Stuff to farm kids in the early 1970's. Television would consume this kid for life. ✝️

Tears are swelling up in my eyes. Beautiful, just beautiful. I know Gene died of Alzheimers and I knew about Gilda, but I'm glad he looked back on his life and thought it was time well spent.

Woo shout out to my town Calgary, AB. Miss you Wilder!

Gene was such a lovely soul. I just love the man and will miss him always.

There were times here where I forgot I was watching a KZfaq video created by another fan of Mr. Wilder's work and felt I was watching a professional documentary. Nicely done.

It was so pleasantly haunting to hear Gene, in his own voice, give a summary of his brilliant career and bittersweet life. He was a true comedic genius, and almost every role he played was truly delightful. Thank you so much for posting this well-edited video.

This is very emotional rest in peace to a legend . We shall rise

man dude. thank you for this. gene wilder was a huge part of my childhood.

How is your channel only a year old wtf you have so much great content

Gene Wilder was such a sweetheart & such a gentle soul❤️ I’m glad u turned the narration over to Gene😊 such an amazing storyteller RIP GENE love him always❤️

"time is a precious thing, never waste it" -Gene Wilder WILLY WONKA

I had no idea that Gene had been suffering from Alzheimer's when he died. Such a cruel disease. Great little video. Thank you.

Early on in the pandemic I found a little forgotten Gene Wilder film where he played an Irishman named Quackser. He was a shiftless dreamer & a shit shoveler holding on to his dying job as the city transitions to automobiles from horses. Fascinating little film.

I always thought Gene was funny, weird, and over the top, always screaming and ranting, but his ability to turn it on and off was amazing, and only the best comedians at the time could hang with him. A true genius

Gene Wilder, what an incredible kind man. It makes me sad that he’s no longer here.

This is mesmerising, heartbreaking, and brilliant!

I'll forever appreciate the walking stick scene what a life

Thanks for this.. Gene Wilder was a legend...and I love his voice

Amazing sir! I knew right when I watched your John Candy video 10 months ago that I would sit here and watch every one of your videos and never be disappointed. And I never have been. Thank you.

I love Gene Wilder and his movies. God bless him.

Young Frankenstein is one of my parents' favorite films and, even though I was missing some of the jokes as a child, observing how it was making them so happy, gave me great comfort as a result. Now, I know another reason. Listening how Gene Wilder was the happiest he'd ever been on a film while making Young Frankenstein, nearly brought me to tears. It certainly shows on screen. Superb job Joe, as always, thank you for this and everything else as well.

Happy Anniversary Hats Off... Keep up the good work sir.

I only saw Gene the actor. I never knew about Gene the man. What an incredibly intelligent and personal man. I was blown away and touched.

Man this was so wonderful. Gene Wilder was a treasure for all humanity. RIP Gene.

Gene Wilder will always be my Willy Wonka. Thanks for this excellent mini-docs! Can't wait for more. When are the next Forgotten Failures again? Gene's audiobook sounds amazing. Edit: Alzheimers is awful, and 2016 is not a great year for comedy fans.

"Hope is as hollow as fear"

I love the fact that Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder met at the desk of the Holiday Inn they were staying at for the movie Silver Streak. I can see now why today’s stars feel they are so unappreciated.

I am watching this again two and half years on and I stopped to reflect. I am the sort of fan that tells anyone who'll listen to seek out Hats Off Entertainment for exceptional programming that delves deeply into media studies' less visible nooks and crannies, all astonishingly produced by a single passionate, devoted, craftsman. I consider myself fortunate to to have been blessed by Almighty Algorithm with a suggestion to watch "Gene Wilder: How To React Naturally" when it was your only upload to date.

“The Frisco Kid”, my favorite Gene Wilder film.

The one thing I take comfort in is he gets to be with Gilda and Richard again. Bravo beautiful documentary

going to enjoy this before it is taken down.

Gene loved life, he loved what he did, he loves kid fans kid and adult alike, he loved his comedy friends, he loved his wifes & ultimately he was happy with the life he lived. Not many people get that in life, despite the heartaches he suffered. God Bless Gene Wilder, there will never be another 🙏 🕊

This was amazing, but I felt like if I didn't watch it immediately, I'd miss my chance because KZfaq is going to pull this thing for using his audio.

I’m not ashamed to admit that from his explanation of Gilda dying on I cried like a baby. I’ve always loved Gene’s movies and just the person that he portrayed onscreen. This quiet, soft-spoken, unimaginably kind lunatic. I watched a clip awhile back of him on Conan in which Conan asks him if he’s enjoying life and Gene says that he is. Conan goes on to say that he hopes that for him and I have to admit, more than any other actor I can think of, I wished that for Gene. There’s just something about him that makes you empathize with him. I miss him sincerely.

Sometimes the best comedy comes from sincerity. No one did it better than Gene.

Happy one year anniversary! I've been a fan since you uploaded your John Candy and Jim Varney videos. It has been a pleasure watching your channel grow and flourish.

Wow, I'm 58 seconds in, and you've already reminded me I haven't seen See No Evil, Hear No Evil since I was nine years old (31 years).

Joe, you did a wonderful thing with this Documentary - It captured the very spirit of Gene Wilder: Gentle and Crazy...Silly and Serious....Fragile and Strong...A mild mannered Madman...with love and compassion...A Professional Human...The world is a little darker without him...But the films still shine SO brightly,....We miss you Gene.

That was beautiful! As others are as well, I'm crying. He was certainly a great actor, although he seemed to play against his personality in all of his roles. While he was the best in scenes where he went nuts and screamed, he seemed like he was a very gentle soul away from the cameras. Every interview I've seen with him shows a very humble, unassuming man who is nothing like the crazy lunatics he masterfully played on screen.

I read his book a while back. It was very much worth reading. Didn't know much about him at the time, much of what I had assumed about him was shown to be completely wrong.

A heartfelt tribute to one of the greatest performers in comedy history. Fantastic job, Joe.

I have ran out of superlatives to describe your videos. What I loved about Gene and Richard together is that Gene was the perfect foil for Richard. He never tried to one up him or score simply reacted naturally to anything he said be it in the script or improvised and it never detracted from his comedic performance. Very similar to the Jeff Daniels Jim Carrey dynamic in Dumb and Dumber.

Superb job on the mini doco. Loved Gene's comedy and roles throughout the years, especially his work with Mel. Same for Gilda. Her time on SNL was hilarious.

This is great. Love from Japan!

One of the best comedy actors of all time. He marked his age

This was wonderful, I could have kept watching for hours.

Gene grew up down the street from where I grew up in Milwaukee (years earlier of course), he is my greatest acting hero, I love him and miss him dearly.

Gene Wilder and this episode were simply outstanding...

Wow, that was hard to watch. I miss his humor which is why I watch Young Frankenstein over and over. It's one of the funniest movies ever made. Blazing Saddles was a masterpiece and is generally considered the number 1 comedy of all time. Gene was a big part of both. RIP Buddy! We miss you!

Thank you for posting this, I love Gene Wilder and his work. He was an extremely underrated actor. It was amazing listening to him describe his life and some of his movies. Gene was a very unique talent and I greatly miss that he is not physically with us anymore. RIP Gene and thanks so much for your fantastic work in film.

I'm happy , amazed and gutted all at the sometime watching this. You do excellent work, you and your staff need more recognition for what you're producing !

thank you very much for this, it was a loving tribute and it made me wanna re-watch all the Gene Wilder movies once again :)

I had tears in my eyes by the end.

@Hats Off Entertainment Joe, you have outdone yourself. This is easily one of the best videos on KZfaq.

Beautiful, interesting, funny and sad. Thank you, Gene & thank you, Joe.

I always loved GW and bonded with my father growing up watching all his movies. This was absolutely amazing, wonderful editing.

I have to admit that until now I have not seen a movie starring Wilder. Certainly this work of compassion has given me the motivation to do so. What a remarkable person and what a great tribute to him as a person and an actor!

He will always be my number one favorite person and actor. His Blazing Saddles performance is legendary.

Was watching so much Gene Wilder stuff... even your vid. Talk about reading my mind. This is amazing. Thanks for this.

Has it been a year already?! I signed on when you just had two videos. The quality of the content that you make is amazing. You can tell that you really care about this funny little business of comedy. Here's to many more years!

We were so touched by this loving, beautiful tribute. Thank you, Joe.

Congrats on one whole year. I've been loving your content!

Wow, what a charming and gracious man. Gene always made me laugh, but today he made me tear up a little as well.

I remember watching your first video and LOVING IT!!! YOU DO TERRIFIC WORK! I wish you many happy years ahead!

Oh man, I spent the whole video glued to the screen and the second it finished I end up crying. Such a remarkable life and such a special human being who got what he wanted and gave so much more. Bravo. Thank you Mr. Ramoni for sharing your love and your passion with us. It's inspiring.

I'm not crying. You're crying. Thanks, Joe.

Truly one of the greatest to ever be on screen. A brilliant original!

One thing not mentioned here is that he got into a disagreement with Mel Brooks about the Putting on the Ritz scene in Young Frankenstein.

Thank you, Gene - for all the laughs and Rest in Peace.

Thanks for this video, it is incredible. The Gilda stuff is heartbreaking, but the ending is fantastic closure. Gene was an incredible actor, and his work speaks volumes. RIP.

Miss you, Gene.

Beautiful tribute to the genius of Gene. Will done

Can’t believe how moved I was from this!.Honestly I left it on a as kinda background noise but was soon captivated..Beautiful

This was a wonderful tribute! I laughed and cried with Gene!

I love Gene. It's nice he's living on.

Such an amazing video! Congrats on a year and well done!
