About this product

Product Information

What do a down-and-out Broadway producer, his anxiety-attack-prone accountant, a go-go dancing Swedish secretary, and a Nazi playwright have in common? They're all part of Mel Brooks's wild and wacky first film, THE PRODUCERS. In this hysterical farce, rapacious but lovable producer Max Bialystock (Zero Mostel) hasn't had a hit in years and resorts to fulfilling sexually crazed little old ladies' fantasies for extra cash. But when he meets his new meek, neurotic accountant, Leo Bloom (Gene Wilder), the two accidentally come up with a plot to oversell shares in a surefire flop musical and make off with the profits. The plan sends the new partners-in-crime on a search for the worst play ever: SPRINGTIME FOR HITLER, written by an ex-Nazi (Kenneth Mars) whose only friends are the filthy city pigeons he keeps on his roof. Inspired, manic performances by all involved, along with Brooks's lively direction--which affectionately alludes to such MGM Golden Age musicals as SINGIN' IN THE RAIN--make THE PRODUCERS both referential and highly original as it moves along swiftly to the ultimate musical climax.

  • Still a classc

    Product arrived promptly. Film is a classic--a few misfires and a few (in 2020) anachronisms but still entertaining, with great performances by zero Mostel, Gene Wilder, Kenneth Mars and others--plus fantastic musical numbers ("Springtime for HItler," "Prisoners of Love).

    Great movie... a classic! The acting is a little "dated" compared to what we watch today, but still funny. The DVD is in excellent condition... like new! Thanks!

  • Best "Producers"

    The original and best version of the film. All the stars are A+, and my particular favorite is Gene Wilder. This man is the classic film comedian.

  • Almost as good.

    I enjoyed this version, but think the remake was better. My rule is, watch everything Mel Brooks filmed.
