"....you take the blond, I'll take the one in the turban."

One of my all time favorite movies, closely followed by Blazing Saddles....

Blucher!"
They had Cloris Leachman on during the commercials...she claimed Blucher means glue in German...that's why the horses got so upset and reared-upwhenever someone said "Frau Blucher"! Don't know if it's true, it's just so typical Mel Brools shtick. Gotta love it!

I enjoyed those behind-the-scenes interview comments!
My daughter was a YF virgin prior to this weekend's showing...she ended up enjoying the movie! I am so proud that my 18 year old daughter loves demented humor! Makes me proud... :-)

Sad thing about Marty Feldman's eyes. They are a common sympton of Grave's Disease (over-active thyroid) which likely eventually contriubted to his dealth. Sadly, Graves Disease is pretty curable (I know because I had it), but for whatever reason I can't find any mention of his being treated for it. Hyper-thyroidism causes the metabolism to go into overdrive (I lost 30 pounds in three weeks), and if it did that to his eyes, I can only imagine what it did to his heart. He died at 48.
RIP Marty - thanks for the memories!
