How that actress could sit there with Dick Shawn writhing all over the place without collapsing with laughter, I will never know. Best acting in the film right there.
To me, Renée Adorée Taylor is the funniest one in this scene. It always kills me the way she says, "Er liebt mir. Er liebt mir nicht. Er liebt mir. Er liebt mir nicht. DU LIEBST MIR NICHT!"
I would love to see a sitcom about Hitler being a jumped-up neighbour with delusions of granduer living in an American neighbourhood with his wife. A French family neighbour, English and American and all his stupid schemes that end with him failing abysmally. :)
Dick Shawn is not remembered as he should. I remember how he's character in "It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world" grew on me from annoying to histerically funnt
Fun fact: Hitler suffered from near-constant stomach cramps that often led to bouts of explosive flatulence. I find it odd that Brooks never made fun of this.
Mel brooks suffered from severe flatulence/abdominal pain his whole life. He felt some empathy for Hitler and chose not to mention the issue. True story
This is my first time ever seeing this part of this movie, and it was such a whiplash from only knowing the remake. I still prefer the remake (cuz I love musicals) but this was so funny. It caught me off guard though
I think Mel Brooks was paying homage here to director Ernst Lubitsch, whose 1942 movie TO BE OR NOT TO BE centered on a fictional Polish theater troupe who lampooned the Nazi high command -- especially the "Send for Goebbels!" bit.
I got to meet Dick Shawn, my mom used to date his brother, and she became friends with him. My dad thought it would be funny for a 7 year old me to say "Hey, man, I Lieb ya, I Lieb ya, I Lieb ya! Now Lieb me alone." when we went out with him to dinner.
Er liebt mir, Er liebt mir nicht, Er liebt mir, Er liebt mir nicht. Du liebst mir nicht! Translated: He loves me, he loves me not, he loves me, he loves me not. You love me not!
Did they really think the audience wouldn't enjoy laughing at someone making a mockery of Hitler? I'd pay to see that and Charlie Chaplain made history doing it.
I think the funniest one here is Renée Adorée Taylor as Eva Braun. It kills me the way she says, "Er liebt mir, er liebt mir nicht. Er liebt mir, er liebt mir nicht. DU LIEBST MIR NICHT!"
@Samuel Franklin I can't fathom why they didn't set the musical in the sixties. They therefore rob the musical of one of the funniest characters who featured in the movie.
@@joestewart8914 If that's true, then he will be Dictator Trump, not President Trump. Even if he had won the election (and I know things are still up for grabs as of this writing) he could only serve until 2024, and then would have been required to step down. The Constitution only allows a person to serve two full terms as president. The only way Trump could still be in office as of 2030 would be if he subverts the Constitution. At which point he would be a dictator, not president.
@@cjmarshall0221 Who cares if he subverts the Constitution? Ruth Bader Ginsburg openly condemned the Constitution and got away with it for many years. Every single Democrat treats the Constitution as if it were written on toilet paper. Their oath is just a sick joke.
@@joestewart8914 Well, to be perfectly honest, I care. The reason I point out such things is because if no one contested the garbage you've just spewn, then it often becomes "fact" by default. Such the the lies Hitler and his cronies spread prior to and during WW II. Many died under his regime because too few had the courage to speak up and challenge him and his bully boys. You're the kind of person who says "Well they subverted the Constitution (Not true!) so it's OK if we do the same thing. Such feeble reasoning leads to tyrannies, injustices, inhumane practices, and a total loss of freedom. You're saying that it's OK for a U.S. President - who is sworn to uphold the Constitution - to violate his oath of office because it suits his agenda, as well as yours. You would sit by and support an illegal suspension of the Constitution if it suited your evil purposes; but would scream "Injustice!" if your home was entered without warrant, and tossed in jail without due process of law.
I loved this movie. Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder are hilarious. The only thing I thought wasn't very good in this movie is that I didn't find the character of LSD to be very funny, which kind of drags the movie down a bit (seeing as the whole premise of the show being a surprise hit was dependent on audiences finding him funny. I was glad they removed LSD when they made the Broadway musical.
LSD was a takeoff on the hippies that were around in the 60's. That's why the audience is laughing at what LSD is doing here as Hitler. They took him out of the 2001 Broadway show because they felt he wasn't as relevant to today's times.
Well he’s not a hippie, he’s a beatnik. A deep cut sub culture from the 40s-60s. Even by 2005 people forgot what a beatnik was so they went with a gay Hitler for the remake

SHE WAS TRYING HARD NOT TO BURST OUT LAUGHING
I ask the same thing with the dancing girl from It's a Mad Mad Mad World, which also has Dick Shawn.
That is Renee Taylor who later played Fran Drescher's mom on The Nanny.
To me, Renée Adorée Taylor is the funniest one in this scene. It always kills me the way she says, "Er liebt mir. Er liebt mir nicht. Er liebt mir. Er liebt mir nicht. DU LIEBST MIR NICHT!"
What's this baby? The furur never said this baby.. the funniest thing said by Kenneth Marrs in this movie
Dick Shawn was a man of rare talents.
His behavior and mannerisms remind me much of Robin Williams.
It's the heavy exaggeration of the character and involvement of modern references not yet part of the character's time
His behavior/mannerisms remind me of Hitler
@@nightloaf4983 Robin Williams reminds you of Hitler?
I'm almost positive that Robin Williams was heavily influenced by this performance. How can anyone not see it?
Oh, fuck yes! 😂
Mel Brooks is the only one to get away with it, a laugh a minute
I didn't realise Mel is still alive!
Still is as of this comment!
@@siobhancrawley1487 he's like 98
This scene is why it's hard for me to choose which Hitler is funnier. Gay Hitler in the remake is hysterical, but so is this Stoner Hitler!
I call him the Hippie Hitler.
All Hitlers are funny. Even the main one had a funny hairstyle.
His name is Lorenzo St. Dubois, or LSD for short
@@sha11235 Don't you mean...Hipler?
I would choose this one.
The actress on stage with Hitler is Renée Taylor! She's best known as Sylvia Fine on the TV show The Nanny! I didn't recognize her at first.
Sylvia Fine: I do this and I'm Jewish!
Mel is the most powerful man on the planet. Love and humor conquers all.
The brilliance of Dick Shawn
I liked both of them but I much prefer the original version of The Producers over the remake 💙💛
its the original? 1967?
Март Author he’s talking about the broadway show
I prefer the remake
Supposedly the remake is what Mel had originally intended for it to be.
@@author7027 Yes.
This guy is a genius.
The use of the 12 bar blues here is extraordinary.
i doubt you will see this production again if the woke group get their way which they will
@@cattyelse2372Why would the woke left want to ban The Producers: anti fascist, anti-Nazism classic?
I'll bet the two people who walked out earlier feel sorry they didn't stay for the funny shit.
No doubt about it, hands-down, the funniest movie ever made or should I say produced! Lol
I would love to see a sitcom about Hitler being a jumped-up neighbour with delusions of granduer living in an American neighbourhood with his wife. A French family neighbour, English and American and all his stupid schemes that end with him failing abysmally. :)
Michael Berry on it fam
I believe there was a British sitcom about Hitler and his wife, and their neighbour, a Jewish family... It was cancelled after one episode.
They did it
Michael Berry we got Jojo Rabbit. Would you settle for a German boy who has a Hitler for an imaginary friend?
@@Ayden_B ua-cam.com/video/mf9jJx0NSjw/v-deo.html (Heil it is).
I used to work with a guy who would start laughing on his way to a Mel Brooks movie, because he knew what he was in for.
Okay, I'm getting very strong Robin Williams vibes! Is it just me?
Nope! I'm definitely getting Robin Williams Vibes too
Seeing as how Dick Sean was doing his thing before Robin Williams then I would have to say that Robin Williams gives you a Dick Sean vibe
Dick Shawn is not remembered as he should. I remember how he's character in "It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world" grew on me from annoying to histerically funnt
Raul A. Pinto same with Kenneth Mars. Always funny...
"why doncha pay some attention to me, ya big dictator?"
“I lieb ya, I lieb ya- now lieb me alone😩!”
Not sure why he seems like Robin Williams
It's in your mind.
Dick Shawn, a great comedian who died too soon.
It's the other way
Djizzle96
1 year ago=he does because something is similar in moves
No joke,when I first saw this in 2001 just a few years before the remake,I thought Robin Williams would nail this for a remake.
remember him from its a mad mad mad world. Sylvester
I read "Sylvester" in Ethel Merman's voice. XD
Figgin awessome 😊😊🙏🚀👍🤜🤛
Oh my so that was Sylvia Fine was doing before she met Morty in Flushing.
You're right! I did not recognize her!
Fun fact: Hitler suffered from near-constant stomach cramps that often led to bouts of explosive flatulence. I find it odd that Brooks never made fun of this.
Had to wait for "Blazing Saddles".
Mel brooks suffered from severe flatulence/abdominal pain his whole life. He felt some empathy for Hitler and chose not to mention the issue. True story
@@gf6392 Smart thinking. Wanna make fun of somebody, don't do it for something you do yourself.
Did he even know that?
@@gf6392 It's switched from suck to blow!
Gold
Now Lieb me alone!
Only flaw in this film is that Franz Liebkind (ignorant fool) went to jail as he got angry from unintended reaction.
The fact that the stoner character plays his role completely seriously but manages to turn it into comedy gold was genius.
Wow looks just like Robin Williams!!
that actress had a hard time not to laugh
what one
This is my first time ever seeing this part of this movie, and it was such a whiplash from only knowing the remake. I still prefer the remake (cuz I love musicals) but this was so funny. It caught me off guard though
Thought Matthew Broderick was totally wooden in the remake, not a patch on Gene Wilder.
I prefer the remake too
OMG holy f balls this is Nanny Fine's mum from 'The Nanny' - aka Sylvia Fine (actress - Rene Taylor). You can tell by the voice!
Omg i just realized there are 2 movies 😂
I desperately need the second part of this PLEASEEE i cant FIND IT

This actor was in Its a Mad, Mad World ... Sylvester ...
I'm still wondering what the actress playing Eva says at the start...
Er liebt mir, Er liebt mir nicht, Er liebt mir, Er liebt mir nicht.
Du liebst mir nicht!
Translated:
He loves me, he loves me not, he loves me, he loves me not.
You love me not!
Where did they go right?
Hilarious! The only thing the remake has over the original is the fabulous JOHN BARROWMAN.
Can't agree more. He's 1 hell of a singer.😊
Well, he did two of three of those things.
Looks like Mel Brooks would be true inventor of Saturday night live in an alternate universe.
Er liebt mir, Er liebt mir nicht, Er liebt mir, Er liebt mir nicht!
Du liebst mir nicht!
I lieb ya I lieb ya, baby. Now lieb me alone!
Did they really think the audience wouldn't enjoy laughing at someone making a mockery of Hitler? I'd pay to see that and Charlie Chaplain made history doing it.
They didn’t know it was directed as a satire.
I think the funniest one here is Renée Adorée Taylor as Eva Braun. It kills me the way she says, "Er liebt mir, er liebt mir nicht. Er liebt mir, er liebt mir nicht. DU LIEBST MIR NICHT!"
Lieb me alone!
I lebe ya, I lebe ya.... Now, leave me alon
"Hey, Morey......"
Idk why you guys are saying LSD looks like Robin Williams, he looks more like a young Kurt Russell
Renee Taylor had a really hard time keeping a straight face in this thing.
I knew I recognized the voice!! Thanks.
I wonder why LSD wasn't in the musical version?
@Samuel Franklin I can't fathom why they didn't set the musical in the sixties. They therefore rob the musical of one of the funniest characters who featured in the movie.
They didn't think he would work in this day and age. That was more a 60's joke.

What is she saying in German
"Er liebt mir, er liebt mir nicht" - basically "he loves me, he loves me not." :) But very bad pronunciation.
the last line she says "du liebt mir nicht" before hitler begins speaking, which means "you love me not"
@@katherinenguyen1112 because she is English or American, she only pretends to speak
The original movie was done on a shoe string budget, but the portrayal of Hitler as a strung out hippie stoner is the best!
Dick Shawn = Robin Williams + Jonathan Winters
Er liebt mir, er liebt mir nicht. 😁
Why are you laughing?
I will say one thing to you.
A German joke is no laughing matter.
Wow. She looks better than the real Eva Braun.
I dont mean to sound unpopular but i like it with Roger De Bris going on as Hitler instead of LSD.
I just realized today that the directors name is "Roger of the bris." Holy mohely!

i like LSD FROM THE first time when i saw him incidentally on the try , that how i came to see the all 1967 film
I would like to see Hitler talking in modern Ebonics and slang. same concept.
I prefer gay Hitler from 2001 producers than hippie Hitler. Times were different so I understand why they couldn't do it.
Well he’s not a hippie, he’s a beatnik. A deep cut sub culture from the 40s-60s.
