715322, his secret weapon...emotion...

sure, generally speaking, most think of him as that great wacky comedic actor, but to me his real secret weapon was actually the emotion he had behind everything he did...

like Pryor, Wilder's genius was his direct connection to, and expression of (either overtly or subvertly) that emotional element...

love this cat...
