I’m a huge Mel Brooks fan, but this is one that has slipped through the cracks of my viewing list for some time now. Finally, I decided it was time to watch it (mostly cause it happened to be up on Netflix). And while I feel that this should have been a great and funny film, like all of Brooks’s other stuff, I just didn’t have the Hitchcock background to appreciate it. In case you haven’t guessed, High Anxiety is a satirical take on Hitchcock’s films.
