Episode Summary:
This week on the FadCast we are joined by major Gene Wilder freak who doesn’t speak, JD the Mime, to eulogize the successful and inspiring career of the recently passed comic genius. We discuss everything from Wilder’s beginnings with Mel Brooks from ‘The Producers’ to ‘Young Frankenstein,’ his on-screen chemistry with funnyman Richard Pryor and his decision to leave Hollywood. We further salute the legendary kind-soul with a script read from Sidney Poitier’s 1980’s classic-hit, ‘Stir Crazy.’
