Silent Movie
Made In Hollywood. U.S.A.
Directed by Mel Brooks
Produced by Crossbow Productions, 20th Century Fox
A cheerful, farcical satire of Hollywood filmmaking that celebrates the joy of silent comedy through slapstick, mime, and irreverent humor.
Aspiring filmmakers Mel Funn, Marty Eggs and Dom Bell go to a financially troubled studio with an idea for a silent movie. In an effort to make the movie more marketable, they attempt to recruit a number of big name stars to appear, while the studio's creditors attempt to thwart them.
