Here's Gene Wilder Looking Super Handsome In His University Of Iowa Yearbook Photo

Look at that handsome college man! Once a Hawkeye, always a Hawkeye. A sad day indeed. Gene Wilder is one of those guys you haven’t thought about a lot recently but it hurts more than you expected when you heard about his death. Everybody and I mean EVERYBODY saw Willy Wonka and loved it. A childhood staple before Johnny Depp came around and fucked it all up. I will say this, the boat scene from the original Willy Wonka was the scariest thing I saw as a child. Maybe even as an adult, too. Shit was crazy. Anyway. RIP Gene Wilder.

PS- Or maybe that’s Nicolas Cage. I’m not totally sure.
