Springtime For Hitler

I'm really getting into this comedy thing using YouTube.

When I first saw The Producers in the early 1970s, I remember the tears rolling down my face as I watched this sequence. I'm sure most of you will have seen the original film, or the stage show, or the film of the stage show (er - why? you can't improve on perfection) but just in case you've never had the pleasure, the story is:

Producer and his accountant plot to cover shortage of funds by putting on a guaranteed flop. They take investment money from dozens of old ladies (at least 50% from each) secure in the knowledge that, as the show will close on its opening night, they will never have a profit to share. They use the worst script, director, composer, cast - including a camp Hitler - and wait for the show to fail.

But it is SO bad, it's good, and looks like being a surefire hit.
