Well, here it is… One of my alllllll time FAVORITE movies!

Based on characters in the novel “Frankenstein” by 20 year old Mary Shelley, a stunning literary piece.  Young Frankenstein, this brilliant masterpiece, took it to a whole new mesmerizing and hilarious level!  My opinion! 😀

With Gene Wilder playing the part of the illusive Dr. Frederick Frankenstein.

Gene dated the adorable, talented Teri Garr for a short while after the film.

I can relate, as I get teased about my eyeball action in “Troll 2″…a lot.

Can’t compete with Marty Feldman!  Love this scene.  Igor trying to fool Dr. Frankenstein.

One scene I’m particularly fond of that I have often quoted through the years, always referring to myself as, “Abby Normal.”

Gotta love this with Mel Brooks.   Gene originally took the idea to Mel Brooks upon the encouragement of his agent, who had just signed on Marty Feldman and Madeline Khan.  He wasn’t sure about it at first, but am I ever grateful he did!  What a collaboration

Mel said of his friend after Gene’s passing.  “Gene Wilder-One of the truly great talents of our time. He blessed every film we did with his magic & he blessed me with his friendship.”

The cast included the awesome Cloris Leachman.

Gene Hackman so great as per usual as the lonely blind man.
