Underrated Mel Brooks classic
Whenever I hear people praising Mel Brooks film, I hear mentions of the likes of The Producers, Blazing Saddles, and Young Frankenstein, but I rarely hear this one mentioned, and huge Mel Brooks fans like myself need to watch it. It needs more respect. It has a few stars from Mel Brooks' regular band of actors, but it also has a bunch of cameos from rather huge stars of the day, like Burt Reynolds, James Caan, Paul Newman, Liza Minnelli, and Mel Brooks' own wife Anne Bancroft. Also, there's the great mime Marcel Marceau, who delivers the only line in the entire film. And there's a cameo from stand-up comedy genius Henny Youngman as a man with a fly in his soup. If you are a Mel Brooks fan and you haven't seen it, what can I say, but go see it.score 10/10
