07.01.12DVR Caught this on TCM. I guess it's from German TV and IMDb says the footage is really from 1988. I can believe it since Wilder still seems pretty spry and active. Mostly this reminded me of Cameron Crowe's interview book and what a great career Wilder had making amazing classic movies. It also made me wish (yet again) for either a dream job or independant wealth that would allow me the time to take a few weeks and revisit Wilder's entire ouvre because really almost every movie he made was great. Even the ones I'm not a huge fan of (like One, Two, Three and Avanti and his last few) are at least interesting and give off the vibe of classic hollywood. Love Billy Wilder.
