A friend of mine went to a preview performance of "The Producers" in NYC several years ago. And, it just so happened that he sat directly behind Mel Brooks and Ann Bancroft as they were taking notes and working on some of the final direction. And, it just so happened that this guy's father was an actor on the NY stage and had been in class with Mel.

So, after the show they all went out for drinks and a late dinner. As they were leaving the theatre, an old Jewish man with a cane had to be restrained from attacking Brooks...screaming at him about the fact that there was nothing funny about Hitler.

It always surprise me that no one ever notices the negative Jewish steriotypes in Bialystock and Bloom.

It's about time. Pity we can't mock muslims in parody. That's what humor is for. If you can't poke fun at someone, why even breathe? Our comedy is so dull these days. I miss ethnic humor.

Now if there was ever a person in the history of mankind, besides Teddy Kennedy, who absolutely did not have a funny side, it was Adolf Hitler. One must be human to have a funny side.
