Amazing how Mel Brooks has outlived so many of the actors in his movies, especially Blazing Saddles.
Didn't know he had Alzheimer's.
RIP
I thought he had Alzheimer's but couldn't quite remember...
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door....
He was great with Marty Feldman in Young Frankenstein. The entire cast was great. Such a classic.
Perfect double feature:
Young Frankenstein
Blazing Saddles
Here is the statement from his family:

My neighbor Burton Gilliam (Lyle in BS) just turned 78 and he's still kicking. He played a local golf tournament today so Mel Brooks is going to have to last a lot longer to outlive Burton.

The poster didn't say all, or that Brooks would, but we all now know who your neighbor is. Thanks.

He kept it quiet so as not to freak out all the kids who loved Willy Wonka - and the movie's on right now. Violet's about to go.
I still prefer Blazing Saddles though - still the greatest comedy movie in history. Challenged only by classics like How to Steal a Million, Amelie, Le Poacard and the Castle, and maybe a few others.
Blazing Saddles is one movie that I laugh hard every time I see it and always pick up another nuance that makes me laugh.
Richard Pryor was a force is the script writing and character development in a movie that couldn't be made today.

Mel Brooks movies and the word nuance do not belong in the same sentence.
