THE PRODUCERS
 


Max Bialystock, a once great Broadway Producer grabs Bloom, his accountant, and attempts to produce the biggest flop possible. "Springtime for Hitler," their masterpiece turns out to be a smash, ruining all the plans they had for their success with a failure. The two are then sent off to Sing-sing, where they produce "Prisoners of Love," another smash flop and Bialystock and Bloom remarkably land on top.
