MEL BROOKS HISTORY OF THE WORLD PART I

For all of those who fell asleep with boredom during history at school this is the movie to fill in the gaps, as seen by Mel Brooks. Both written and directed by Mel Brooks, History of the World Part One ($12) takes a comedic look at the history of mankind, using a series of very funny vignettes to take us on a madcap journey from the Old Testament through to the bloody French Revolution. Brooks is joined by several comic genius’ including Gregory Hines and Dom DeLuise and the result is something very special.
