This two-night documentary, directed by award-winning filmmakers Judd Apatow and Michael Bonfiglio, explores the life, career, friendships and loves of legendary writer, director, producer and performer Mel Brooks.

Anchored by Apatow’s candid conversations with Brooks and rare archival footage of his performances and television appearances over decades, the film chronicles his early sketches, landmark films and Broadway hits, such as Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, Spaceballs and The Producers, and highlights how he turned personal pain, postwar trauma and the absurdities of life into bold, hilarious satire that subverted norms and reshaped American comedy. Part 1 premieres tonight on HBO, with the second part premiering Friday. Both parts are available to stream Thursday on HBO Max.

And, even more so, in the potential she has to bring true acceptance, adventure and romance to his life. There may never be a better final line, rom-com or otherwise, than Roberts’ “She rescues him right back!” And the film earned the fledgling star a Golden Globe and an Oscar nomination, cementing her status as a sought-after actor.

This 1947 Best Picture winner from director Elia Kazan, which was controversial in its day, tackled antisemitism, including its effects in employment and housing discrimination. Gregory Peck plays a journalist who goes undercover as Jewish to, reluctantly, write a magazine story on antisemitism. He digs in deeper when he experiences the prejudice himself and realizes what Jewish friends and acquaintances had to go through. Kazan also snagged an Oscar for Best Director, his first of two (the second was for On the Waterfront, seven years later).
