The ultimate revenge on Hitler. This song was by written Mell Brooks who is Jewish. Then gets mocked with this song. People will listen to a version of this song for a long time to come. Each play is like a mini FU to The Nazis. It's also pretty funny.
Absolutely. Brooks has said that this is dancing on Hitlers grave, mocking him. BTW, Brooks was in WW2 in the European theater. As my students would say, 'He's got street cred!'.
you know that chorus at 7:40 gives me some chills because it really captures the initial excitement of germans that they had during the start of the war when they conquered almost all of europe , and we all know how much suffering it caused in the end when they started to lose bad
There was no way for Hitler to have won the war just because of him, Hitler. He killed his best friend, his right-hand man, sent great Generals to prison, killed Coronels, Generals, Captains and etc made great warriors forcibly accepted the retirement card and there were people in Germany (Germans)always trying to kill him. As a British person, I can assure you that he could even got further but would not last long. One day, he would have got killed. He lost for the Russians (consequently lost the war) when everyone told him not to go there at that time because of the Winter.
@@j.victordp885 reality is much more complicated, firstly hitler always had in mind that the two front war will end in defeat, but he had no other choice really, communism was his biggest ideological enemy, he needed oil for his war machine and russia had plenty of it. Hitler greatly underestimated soviet industrial capability which can be heard in his only secret recording of his voice, it was not only about winter. Also germany was kinda doomed from the start because of the ,,jewish stab in the back" view of losing ww1 which was kinda bullshit and contributed to repeating strategical ww1 mistakes because ,,it was the jews and now they are no more" lol
@@kisiel901We all should hopefully know that Hitler over extended himself on the East. Give your head a wobble there. He gained power because of the Treaty of Versailles where the Allies unnecessarily humiliated the Axis and drove rampant hyperinflation into their economy. It just needed someone like Hitler to come along and spot the flaw in the system. Once Hitler got the economy under control, he then conducted matters. Before finally over extending the Army. And please do NOT use the phrase ‘lol’ when it eventually meant that what this cretin did was enabling the NAZIs to the create the Holocaust. Have a sense of respect and decency. Or at least; have a care.
The original film is still the best, but this scene is such an utter artistic masterpiece it’s hard to know how to gauge it overall. It’s even better than the original
It does have its moments, but 1967's line "I lieb you. I lieb you baby. Now lieb me alone!" is CLASSIC. Also, H's delivery after H's attempted assassination of 'They try. Oh, how they try!" is *chef's kiss*.
@@stefanmircetic8798 The play is called "Springtime for Hitler" which imo calls to mind the idea of the start of his reign or the beginning of his career. Spring is traditionally associated with new life or the start of the year so it's really no different from calling your play "The Life and Times of Hitler" or something like that. Ignoring that though, in the context of the movie it'd be weird if an established playwright just put out a pro-Hitler stageplay. Like imagine Andrew Lloyd Weber put out Cats and then immediately put out a Mein Kampf musical. Lol. You could equally explain it as the audience expecting a black satire instead of a completely uncritical pro-Nazi play.
I saw a production of the show about 4 or 5 years ago at the Exchange Theatre, Manchester, which was 'in the round'. It was superb. Only one way to attack despotism, racism and intimidation is to ridicule and laugh at it.
Gary Beach is channeling his inner Charlie Chaplin here as the "Smarty who leads the Nazi party." Flawless lampoon of a murderous buffoon...and yes that rhymes.
They removed the line from the Original Producers, where..when the audience is 1/2 way out..someone seeing their "Hitler" gets up and shouts, "I GET IT, IT'S A SATIRE..." I think that part of the scene should have been left in. However, their 'Dolf' in this one I actually think is BETTER than fellow from the original.
There have been rumors that someone actually wrote a fan-play of the 1967 Springtime covering the entire play. Way back in the day, obviously. If anyone knows where it is on the Net, if it is on the Net, can you hit me up with some link love? I've been searching for that intermittently for at least three decades now! Edit: and yes, I've checked FFN-it may be the only fandom out there that DOESN'T have a fanfic on that site. *sighs in retro nerd-dom*
@@finncullen People knew about his antic for at least 10 years before it came back up, the only reason it came back up was because noel clake was being accused and used barrowman to push the attention off himself.
The original script/story was an amazing premiss. A show created to be the most terrible and offensive, yet ends up being a success. The 1967 film was great and this film was great to. John Barrowman was brilliant in this, with his mix of camp in a Nazi uniform.
2005: Mel Brooks makes a movie with people doing Nazi salutes and the next shot is of the audience reacting with total disgust. 2024: the world's richest guy does Nazi salutes and no one cares. This is not progress, people.
I seem to remember it being on at possibly the Friedrichstadt Palast on Friedrichstrasse in Berlin at least 15 years ago. All the swastikas in the production and advertising displays outside were replaced by an image of a pretzel
Evita hasn't been banned in Argentina. Just any argentinian, antiperonists and peronists alike, know it's a piece of shit and a disgrace to the history of our country. We tried to modify it a bit but it's a lost cause; Eva Perón having the Che Guevara as a invisible companion is just too much of a clusterfuck, or too much american ignorance.
The original movie had a character Lorenzo St. Dubois, a hippie who enjoyed the 60s way too much, playing Hitler. Dick Shawn did a great playing that character. When Dick Shawn's Lorenzo/Hitler appeared on stage the audience loved it, just like in the Broadway/2005 film version. Had Max and Leo stayed for the entire opening number, they likely would have run for the airport and flown to a country that didn't have an extradition treaty.
Mel Brooks turned his movie into a Broadway musical, and then wanted to turn the musical back into a movie. And Columbia and Universal were more than willing to let him in the wake of “Chicago” and “Moulin Rouge!” Unfortunately, the musical version isn’t a very good movie overall, but this scene and several others are great in isolation.
Mel brooks wrote a broadway musical based on his original movie. This movie's script follows the broadway musical more closely than the original movie ie more songs
@@roberttelarket4934 I've never said Zero Mostel was surpassed, the newer movie is a different version of the movie, based on the play, they are just different. Also Gene Wilder was a genius, unlike you lol

There is only one Zero Mostel! As well just one Kenneth Mars, Christopher Hewett, Andreas Voutsinas, Dick Shawn!!! This no way compares with the original!!!
@klausgoldfisch3231 oh come on now. Do you really believe what you are saying. The numbers are nowhere near that. Look, when it comes to politics today, there just is no good choice anymore. You basically have to decide which is the lesser of two evils. As for me, I am not a huge MAGA person that you would see going to those huge rallies, but President Trump is most definitely the lesser of two evils between the two. Have you noticed how President Biden has been keeping Harris as close to the vest as possible. He has made sure at every speaking engagement to make sure the cameras record him saying that she is as culpable in the decisions that his Administration has made lately. I do not trust Kamala Harris as far as I could throw her. I guess the bottom line here is vote your conscience, and be ready to accept the consequences of doing so. Peace to you.
Jimmy Kimmel actually made a sketch parodying this musical in 2016 when Trump first ran for president. He even got Matthew Broderick and Nathan Lane to essentially reprise their roles.
It is because it came out in the sixties I think? And at that point for people who had gone through NAZI atrocities it was satire on an EPIC level. And good for Mel. What. A. Legend
This version has no rhythm, no drive, it's a complete failure. The original version was absolutely fabulous ; the show was so good that it could almost be viewed at face value. Why are remakes always such disasters? Why do they insist?

Still one of the funniest routines ever conceived. Mel Brooks is a genius.
