My Review-
Possibly one of the funniest Mel Brooks movies ever made. Gene Wilder is amazing and so is Zero Mostel, even though I have never hear of him until I saw this movie. Like one person says in the film, "Who knew Spring Time for Hitler, would be funny" and the scenes that we see for the play are really hilarious. When I first started watching it the beginning was quite weird, because Mostel's character uses old women to get money for plays, a LOT of old women. Which is kind of wrong but for a Brooks movie it's hilarious, Gene Wilder like always was really funny and he fit his character well as being worried and funny at the same time with his blue blanket and girl like scream. This one Mel Brooks movie to see if you have not seen it because for me it was not stop laughs throughout the whole thing, especially the guy they get to play Hitler; played by Dick Shawn, in quite possibly my new favorite on screen character, because his nickname is L.S.D, along with Franz Liekind the ex nazi who wrote "Spring Time for Hitler". I highly recommend this one since it is the original and it looks way better then the 2005 remake.
