The Producers

Mel Brooks’ hilarious 1967 film is a classic. Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder star as Max Bialystock and Leo Bloom, a down-on-his-luck Broadway producer and his accountant, who figure out how to make a profit by creating a surefire flop. Their idea: a musical called Springtime for Hitler. With laugh-out-loud comedic performances, Brooks’ enduring film is widely considered one of the greatest comedies of all time.

We honor the 100th birthday of Mel Brooks by showcasing four films from his iconic oeuvre throughout the months of June - July. A true master of comedy, Mel Brooks' legendary career helped popularize and revolutionize the parody film by blending slapstick and spot-on satire with his pitch-perfect mockery of every film genre ranging from musicals to horror.
