Kino Lorber will release on Blu-ray Mel Brooks' film
The Producers (1968), starring Zero Mostel, Gene Wilder, Dick Shawn, Kenneth Mars, and Andréas Voutsinas. The release is expected to arrive on the market later this year.
Synopsis: Down and out producer Max Bialystock (Zero Mostel), who was once the toast of Broadway, trades sexual favors with old ladies for cash contributions. Max's new accountant Leo Bloom (Gene Wilder), offhandedly muses that if Max found investors for a new production that turned into a flop, he could legally keep all the extra money. The duo begins to put together the worst play possible, titled "Springtime for Hitler", with a terrible director and a hippie-freak star.
