Brooks' The Producers (with its "Springtime for Hitler")

I was amazed at the lack of shocked dismay that greeted the recent success of the Broadway adaptation of this hilarious movie. I thought for sure people would be boycotting and demanding apologies left and right.

Even now, as of Troy mentioned, humor becomes a way to deal with our difficult feelings.
