Gene Wilder

So she went and got a job in the studios as a costumer.

In fact, she was a costumer on Young Frankenstein before I even got the job.

And she told, don't tell anyone I'm your mother.

I said, what is this about?

It's so weird.

Anyway, I learned.

Why didn't you want anyone to know?

I do not know to this day.

Was it for her sake or your sake?

I don't know.

But finally I told Mel, I said, you know that lady over there?

That's my mom.

He was so great because he's just a great guy.

And he will bring her over here.

And he was wonderful.

How did you get the part of the monster?

Did you remember the monster's grunts, which, of course, you had to do?

The makeup is actually very funny for the film, because you could see where the makeup is.

One of the highlights, I think, of Young Frankenstein is when Gene Wilder, who plays Dr. Frankenstein, the scientist, is showing off you, his monster, his creation, to a big audience of scientists.

And then as he's showing you off, you do a duet with him of Puttin' on the Ritz.
