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.

  • Great Film. May soon be banned (amazing it hasn't been banned yet)

    One of the greatest movies ever made. It is far better than the later rerelease. I bought this one to be able to enjoy it before it gets banned by the media. Get yours soon or you won't have the chance.

  • Waste of time.

    I found this movie a total waste of time. Stupid story line. Not funny or entertaining. I am a fan of Gene Wilder but this one will not be watched again by me.

  • Zero Mostel and Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder are superb. Zero Mostel is the kind of actor that can dominate a scene without trying

  • Stupid and Dated

    I bought this movie for two reasons. 1) I am a fan of Gene Wilder. 2) He died. Some people said this was the funniest movie ever. I disagree.
