Fresh, funny, and insightful, It's Good to Be the King traces
the extraordinary life and wide-ranging career of Mel Brooks, who
has ridden a wave of show business success perhaps unsurpassed by
anyone of his generation. From the Golden Age of Television to
dazzling film comedy classics such as Blazing Saddles and Young
Frankenstein to the Broadway triumph of The Producer, s Brooks's
unique brand of slapstick, satire, and just plain silliness has
withstood the test of time.
Offering many stories from the wacky world of Brooks and his
colorful collaborators, a s well as an intimate look into Mel's
seemingly improbable, yet highly successful, marriage to the
brilliant and beautiful actress Anne Bancroft, It's Good to Be the
King might just be the most delightful, engaging, and entertaining
biography you'll ever read.
