Additional InformationWhat 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 sure-fire 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. <BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>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.

    Well, this is an old film and I have been looking for a copy of this original one for years. The characters are so funny and have so many phobias. Made in 1968 now a days it would probably be considered by some people to be un PC. I originally saw this film in the 1980's and found it hilarious but of course I was younger then in my 20's and I seem to remember having had a few drinks. I still find it amusing now that I am older but for different reasons. I recommend this film as it shows you how times have changed.
