[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Producers. Nothing funny about Hitler.[/quote] The Producers itself is not itself offensive. It's the play within the play of Springtime for Hitler that's offensive by design. The plot of The Producers hinges on the main characters producing a show that's so offensive it will be a surefire flop.[/quote] +1 Thank you for pointing this out to the rather benighted PP to whom you're responding. Some people just do not get satire, or the brilliant, biting satire that is "Springtime for Hitler." Mel Brooks said, when rabbis wrote to him with concerns about a satirical take on Hitler: "I said: Listen, get on a soapbox with Hitler, you're gonna lose — he was a great orator. But if you can make fun of him, if you can have people laugh at him, [i]you win[/i]."[/quote]
