2024 Portland Jewish Film Festival: Remembering Gene Wilder

The Oregon Jewish Museum and Center for Holocaust Education is proud to present the 2024 Portland Jewish Film Festival.

Remembering Gene Wilder : The endearing comic genius of screen actor Gene Wilder comes to life in this affectionate tribute, chock full of uproarious clips, outtakes, and poignant home movies. While the world knows Gene Wilder as an endearing comic genius, his gifts also include writing and directing. The film is 1 hour and 32 minutes in length and will be followed by a brief talk back program with Shawn Levy, film critic and author including the recent publication In on the Joke: The Original Queens of Stand-Up Comedy.  His podcast, Glitter & Might, about the nexus of politics and Hollywood in the life of studio boss and super-agent Lew Wasserman, appeared in 2023.
