dude you are so lucky! he's by far my favorite writer/director. he always kinda struck me as a down to earth person, and its great to know that he really is. i hope we see loads more out of him. i actually saw that movie robots just to hear him.

"he always kinda struck me as a down to earth person, and its great to know that he really is."
I know, that's why I was so glad to have met him - it only makes me enjoy 111chis work more! And I thought the same as you - that he was really down to earth - even before I had proof. So anyway, I'm so glad these boards exist so we can swap stories like this. Meeting him was definitely a highlight in my life:) -

I would like to meet him too he's a living legend!!!!!!!!!
And with my acting dream (I have played roles in some plays, and been an extra in several films) it would be a dream of my life if I could be involved in his work. But I guess that will never happen

Wow, that's excellent. Gene Wilder should take some lessons from him.

I just went to the Soundtrack signing for Young Frankenstein and met Mel! I can confirm he is a lovely person and seems so healthy and energetic for a man of 81. I was also fortunate enough back in the early 90's to meet Gene Wilder who was also very gracious to me.

Recently, I wrote a letter to Mel, and yesterday, I received a reply. He didn't send a letter himself (his assistant did), but I got an autographed picture.

He's truly one in a million - I don't think there will be another Mel coming down the pipeline anytime soon. I hate to think how old he's getting, but knock on wood he'll stay in good health as long as possible!!!

Dogluver, thanks for the anecdote. I'm happy to learn Brooks is nice in person. His comedies always make me happy when I'm down.
