Gene Wilder & Richard Pryor in “Stir Crazy”Unless you have been living under a rock, you have seen the classic Gene Wilder films like Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles and Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
But, Wilder, who died recently at the age of 83, also starred in a long list of films, some of which qualify to be called “cult classics.” Several of these paired Wilder with comedian Richard Pryor, who died in 2005.
