"There’s a joke in #BlazingSaddles, about an event that took place several thousand years ago, that maybe hasn’t aged so well.

It’s in the scene where #HarveyKorman’s conniving Attorney General #HedleyLamarr brainstorms plans to clear away the town of Rock Ridge. #Lamarr’s lackey #Taggart, played by #SlimPickens, makes a modest proposal: “We’ll kill the firstborn male child in every household.”

Lamarr considers the idea, before dismissing it. “Too #Jewish,” he says.

When I heard that quip in a recent rewatch with my girlfriend (her first time), I saw a new reason why you couldn’t make the #film today: Modern audiences, particularly those amateur critics itching to sound off online, seem to have more fluency in #bloodlibels about #Jews than the #Passover narrative #MelBrooks and Co. were riffing on. For those who think the #Epsteinfiles contain damning proof of elites eating babies, “too Jewish” might seem like an admission."

Not sure this is as germane as I think it to be, but this brought to mind. Also &

Performed &/or wrote racist lines, & some were snickered at by racists while others *got* the point of the satire.

To me it matters not only that they said/wrote these things, but also why. And did they have a net positive effect?

Promotional poster for HBO documentary MEL BROOKS: The 99 Year Old Man! 

The main focus at top center is a smiling headshot of Mel Brooks. Below is a montage of illustrations of characters from his films. At bottom center is the title in yellow serif block letters with a blue drop-shadow. The footer reads "2-Part Documentary January 22 HBO Max"

Oliver Goldsmith as interpreted by Mel Brooks? This might have happened had Brooks' plans for his own film version of 'She Stoops to Conquer' been greenlighted.

That is one of the wonderful tidbits from Brooks' recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter (not to overlook mention of a Myron Cohen joke).

There is a school of thought on that, made into another movie documentary by Mel Brooks before I was even born. (-:

In this Post-Stross Universe, where fiction is now the upper bound on how positive the future will be, we are watching the plot of #MelBrooks's 1967 movie _The Producers_ play out in real time.

The audience has yet to start laughing at #Amazon's cunning scheme to give a bung to #DonaldJTrump via a disastrous #Melania movie about the rise to power of a monarch and his consort.

Michael Lurie – „Jerry Lewis: From Darkness To Light“ (2024)

Jerry Lewis war für mich immer schon mehr als ein Komiker. Ich habe schon als Kind jede seiner Shows mit Dean Martin gesehen, jede seiner Figuren geliebt – nicht nur den tollpatschigen Chaoten, der sich mit absurdem Timing und überdrehter Mimik in jedes Herz gestohlen hat. Seine Filme waren ständige Begleiter, und doch ahnte ich eigentlich nur, wie komplex der Mann hinter dem Lachen tatsächlich war. Dieser Dokumentarfilm bringt all das zum Vorschein und lässt tief hinter die Maske des „King of Comedy“ blicken. (ARD, Neu!)

Speaking of watching stuff, not long ago I spent quality time watching History of Brooks World Part II on HBO, but that's not what they called it. It was the second part of the HBO Documentary #MelBrooks , the 99 Year Old Man. I recommend it.
