(38,726 posts)Max, Leo and the fellow who worked with them, are sitting in the theater watching audition after audition..For Hitler..The utter look of amazement on Zero Mostels face as the last Hitler tries out,,and he knows that this is the totally worst acter/singer that he has ever seen anywhere..............and that is what Leo and Max are trying to produce.... the worst play ever.............and Max.......yells out after seeing that last person.................................so incredibly bad,,,beyond belief......and he says....
............................"THAT'S OUR HITLER''.......................................
Dick Shawn played L.S.D..in the 1967 film ..he was the one auditioning... and was great..
Zero Mostel, Gene Wilder and others...The look on the three in the theater when L.S.D does his little audition...is for me one of the funniest moments in all movies.....I would honestly say, that the 1967 version is to me the funniest movie I have ever seen..
If you haven't seen the 1967 version...please see it.....
wonderful thread...

(32,549 posts)Back in the 1980s, I was in a film appreciation class at De Anza Junior College (CA)
and on the last day of class, the teacher told us to pick "the best movie you ever saw".
When it was my turn, I proudly said "The Producers"..while the rest of the class looked puzzled, most of them having never even heard of The Producers
