Storyline:

"The Producers" (1967), directed by Mel Brooks, is a comedy about a failing Broadway producer, Max Bialystock (Zero Mostel), and a timid accountant, Leo Bloom (Gene Wilder). They concoct a scheme to produce the worst Broadway show, "Springtime for Hitler," hoping it will flop and they can embezzle the invested funds. Their plan backfires when the offensive musical unexpectedly becomes a hit, leading to a series of comical predicaments.
