Boy that’s a tough one. Willy Wonka is the easy choice, but I’m very partial to the Waco Kid in Blazing Saddles. I think Willy Wonka is probably his most brilliant performance, though, and it completely changes the film into something new.
I think I will do Willy Wonka for Monday’s family movie night. The Producers is hilarious. I was just looking through his filmography and he didnt make as many movies as I thought. Still most he knocked out of park
The Love Pirate 
A good way to remember him

They’re all great! He’s soooo good in Young Frankenstein, and the Producers of course, plus everything else. Might watch one of those tonight!

Yeah, he’s great in everything he’s in (even movies that are not that good), but he made a remarkable impression for having such a short filmography.
