Low-rent Broadway producer Max and his high-strung accountant Leo discover that with the help of a few gullible investors they can make more money on a flop than on a hit. So armed with the worst show ever written and an equally horrific cast, this double-dealing duo is banking on disaster. But when their sure-to-offend musical becomes a surprise smash hit, they find themselves in the middle of a Broadway blitzkrieg!

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

A classic submitted by illy on August 31, 2016, 10:31am Hilarious movie. If you liked the remake with Nathen Lane and Matthew Broderick, definitely check the original out.

A Fun Film submitted by majean on August 17, 2018, 12:54pm Quite an original story.

"Spring Time for Hitler" submitted by kencza on June 15, 2020, 10:48am Zero Mostel is the theater producer who romances old ladies to fund his productions. A young Gene Wilder is his accountant and foil. Together, they plan to create a flop in a money making scheme. Dick Shawn is very good here as Hitler in the play. Very worthwhile spoof that earned Mel Brooks an Oscar for Screenwriting.
