The Producers at Revival House PerthWitness Mel Brooks' anarchic masterpiece—the 1967 comedy that launched his legendary career and remains one of the most audaciously funny films ever made. This is the one that proved you could make jokes about anything if you were fearless enough, smart enough, and genuinely subversive.
Zero Mostel stars as Max Bialystock, a washed-up Broadway producer who seduces little old ladies to finance flops. When neurotic accountant Leo Bloom (Gene Wilder in his breakout role) accidentally reveals that a producer could make more money with a flop than a hit, Max has a brilliant/terrible idea: raise more money than they need, produce the worst show ever written, and pocket the difference when it closes opening night.
Their search leads them to "Springtime for Hitler," a love letter to the Third Reich written by deranged Nazi Franz Liebkind (Kenneth Mars). They hire the worst director in New York (Christopher Hewett's Roger De Bris, a flamboyant disaster) and cast a hippie playing Hitler as a flower child. What could go wrong?
Brooks' genius is making a comedy about con men producing a Nazi musical that's actually about the absurdity of fascism itself—mocking Hitler so thoroughly that hate becomes ridiculous. The "Springtime for Hitler" number remains one of cinema's most jaw-dropping musical sequences, offensive and hilarious in equal measure.
Mostel and Wilder create comedy gold, bouncing off each other with manic energy. This is Brooks unfiltered—politically incorrect, brilliantly written, and still shocking.
Presented in authentic 35mm film for the true cinematic experience!
