I am hysterical and I'm wet

Rating: Null/10 (20 March 2002)

(That doesn't sound so good, does it.)
You've got to hand it to Mel Brooks--he started at the top and worked his way up from there. Unquestionably his best work.
This is not a movie for those whose sensibilities are easily offended, and that's exactly what I love about The Producers. I recently had the opportunity to see it on the big screen, and it was fantastic.
As far as casting is concerned, he could not have done better. Dick Shawn was the only possible choice to be LSD, and his Hitler was terrific. (I liebe ya, baby, I liebe ya, now liebe me alone.) Kenneth Mars as Liebkind--great.
