On PBS tonight they were airing the original 1968 version of Mel Brooks' classic: The Producers.
As nice as the modern remake musical is, nothing compares to Gene Wilder and Zero Mostel chewing scenery. I just love how well they play off each other.
this is just a small taste, but they have such a great feel for timing and mood in their scenes. The whole film is genius, even if it is a bit outdated. If you've never seen the original, it's a must watch.
