T/FB/TCM: 2026 movie #90. 1976. Former silent movie director Mel Funn (Brooks) tries to get funding for a new silent movie in the '70s, but first he must secure some big names for the project. All dialogue was silent with cards. All slapstick and sight gags and very very funny. Loved it.
A film director and his strange friends struggle to produce the first major silent feature film in forty years. (fonte: Imdb)
