    May he rest in peace. Never saw the films but if he worked with Gene Wilder he's alright in my book.

    @ Anna Nonymous - I think that's a young Michael Winner with Charles Bronson in that photo but OMG can you imagine a movie with a comical Gene Wilder and a pissed off Charles Bronson? I'd pay to see that!

    @ All about Eve - My father loved his movies too. They were "of an age".

    RIP Mr. Winner.

    I've never seen his movies but as a hardcore foodie I LOVED his restaurant reviews, 'Winner's Dinners' in the Sunday Times. He was so full of himself but he made me laugh. Boy, could that man eat :)
