Celebrate Gene Wilder on the Big Screen in Kalamazoo with ‘Blazing Saddles’

Alamo Drafthouse Cinema will show 'Blazing Saddles' Friday night in remembrance of Gene Wilder.

The year 2016 claimed another legend of the entertainment world when we got the news of Gene Wilder's passing on August 29.

Alamo Drafthouse Kalamazoo plans to screen "Blazing Saddles" at 7 p.m. on Friday, September 2.

Proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to Gilda's Club, a charity that supports cancer patients and their families co-founded by Gene Wilder and his late wife Gilda Radner.

As the screening will likely sell out, it is recommended you purchase tickets in advance.
