The Producers/Awesome

• Leo finally grows a spine and says one of my favorite lines in the movie-musical-movie. "And you're right, Mr. Marks! You are a CPA! A certified public ASSHOLE!"
• In the film, Nathan Lane keeps singing while he throws his hat in the air, opens a door, and catches it, all in one take.
• The absolutely massive Tony sweep. Not even Mel expected that big of a victory.
• Pulling off the "swastika dancing" scene on-stage. One of the best moments in "Springtime for Hitler" is the above shot where you see the dancers in a swastika formation. They simulated this on-stage using a large mirror and mannequins on dollies... and it worked.
