Born Nov. 8, 1967, this half-German and half-Japanese scholar was also an author, critic, poet and actor.
He would later be known as the “King of Bohemia” and “The First Hippie” after his death on November
22, 1944. Truly, one of a kind.

Farewell To Would-Be Errol Flynn Swashbuckler, Gene Wilder
30
Aug
‘Gene Wilder with sidekick Marty Feldman is ready to take on all opponents!’
Movie comedian Gene Wilder died yesterday at age 83. He left behind a legacy of 26 films including two swashbucklers. The first is the forgotten comedy classic ‘Start The Revolution Without Me” (1970) where he delightfully co-starred with Donald Sutherland as two pairs of mixed-up, identical twins in the French Revolution of 1789. One pair the wealthy, arrogant Aristocrats the Corsican Brothers, and the other, two cowardly Paris paupers. This beautifully shot costume, period film even has Orson Welles as an on-camera narrator. The second is the hilarious “The Adventure Of Sherlock Holmes’ Smarter Brother” (1974) with Wilder as the great detective’s jealous and insecure kid brother, Sigerson. This forgotten Holmes case has climatic duels with one between rapidly traveling coaches in the London fog, and a climatic rooftop swordfight to the death between Sigi Holmes and his brother’s arch-enemy Professor Moriarty played by Leo McKern. Thanks Mr. Wilder and God bless you. Ralph Schiller
