What The Producers Is About
Mel Brooks's 1968 film follows two men who plan to profit by staging a play certain to fail. They sell far more shares than exist. The play they choose is unexpectedly a hit. The film makes the Nazi period an object of open mockery; the narrative treats pushing satire that far as its own defence. Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder lead. The screenplay won an Academy Award. It is the director's first feature and was later turned into a musical. Who it's for: those who like bold black comedy. Who it's not for: viewers uncomfortable with Nazi imagery used as a joke; the film does it on purpose.
