The Producers

1h 29m · 1967 · Directed by Mel Brooks · 3.8 / 5 on Letterboxd

The Producers (1967) runs 1h 29m, directed by Mel Brooks. It is one of 3,647 films in the 100 Minute Movies catalog — every one rated 3.0 or higher by Letterboxd members and short enough to finish in an evening.

A conniving Broadway producer and his meek accountant plan to profit from charming wealthy old biddies to invest in an overbudget production, and then put on a sure-fire disaster, so nobody will ask for their money back — and what's more disastrous than a tasteless musical celebrating Adolf Hitler.
