Mel Brooks: The 99 Year Old Man!
Directed by award-winning filmmakers Judd Apatow (HBO's Emmy®-winning The Zen Diaries of Garry Shandling) and Michael Bonfiglio (HBO's Emmy®-winning George Carlin's American Dream), this two-part film explores the life, career, friendships, and loves of legendary writer, director, producer, and performer, Mel Brooks. One of Hollywood's most daring satirists, Brooks has held a funhouse mirror up to the human condition and used laughter as a path to resilience, connection, and joy for nearly a century. Anchored by Apatow's candid conversations with Brooks, rare archival footage, and interviews with noted comedians and filmmakers such as Rob Reiner, Sarah Silverman, Conan O'Brien, and Dave Chappelle, Mel Brooks: The 99 Year Old Man! highlights how Brooks turned personal pain, postwar trauma, and the absurdities of life into bold, hilarious satire that subverted norms and reshaped American comedy.
