Blazing Saddles, one of my favorite films, Mel Brooks and Gene Wilder unbeatable, one of the movie greats.

It's not so sad when someone has lived their lives to the full and pass on. It's natural.
Thank you Gene for giving us your great and classic moments of comedy and belly aching laughter.
You created characters we think of even after years of seeing the movie.
