Dick Cavett on Mel Brooks


The NY Times has a column by Dick Cavett on Mel Brooks, one of the funniest people ever. As teen, I could wait to watch him on “The Johnny Carson Show” or for any of his movies to come to the theater – Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, Silent Movie and High Anxiety.

Read The Great Melvino, if you want a laugh.
