REMEMBERING GENE WILDER Monday, November 6th, 7 PM Orchard Cove, 1 Del Pond Drive, Canton, MA 02021 The endearing comic genius of screen actor Gene Wilder (born Jerome Silverman) comes to life in this affectionate and touching documentary, chock full of uproarious clips, outtakes and poignant reminiscences. Told in part through Wilder’s own voice (an audiobook of his memoir), never seen home-movies and interviews, Gene emerges not only as a comedic actor but as a writer, director and a mensch.
