the man put together a blu ray box set of his wife so that the world could see her best work. God damn that is love.

Mel is an American treasure.

Every woman should have a man love her that passionately. A true love story.

“She had looks, brains and purpose” I wish I could find that sometimes

So much class, so much humor, so much talent. Both of them. They were a real power couple and they dont make them like that anymore.

Mel Brooks: still funny, still relevant, and well ahead of his time Anne Bancroft: still simply radiant. RIP, Madam.

Mel Brooks is a national treasure. They don't make comedy writers like him anymore. Blazing Saddles and History of the World are two of the funniest comedies I've ever seen.

“You wanna save a couple of bucks and see the greatest performances from the greatest actress ever.” and “She was a gift from God” Man, did I get emotional hearing that. Mr. Brooks, sir. Anne will be in our hearts for generations.

I just can't believe how sharp and funny Mel Brooks is at 93. Just amazing. His health and mobility is equally impressive. He is living proof that "laughter is the best medicine."

I wish everyone could have the relationship Mel and Anne had. Thank You Mel for your intellect and Humor.

Artistry in free speech embodied. The man has toed a delicate line of truth in comedy that's timeless.

"She liked my whistle. It's a good whistle" - Mel Brooks 2019

I agree with Mel - she was a gift from God. I'm off to order the box set right now.

6:10 “There was just nobody else, she had everything! She had looks, she had brains, she had purpose!” Mel’s sweet dedication to wife Anne Bancroft.

Mel is one of those people you'd want to live forever! Happy to see him still sharp as ever and healthy and this very respectable age! May he live on for many more!

Last year, I got the high honor to see "An Evening With Mel Brooks" live in Vegas. At 92, he was sharp as a tack and told countless great stories about his days in TV and his years making some of the great comedies ever. The term 'national treasure' gets tossed around a lot, but it sure as sh*t applies here..or to quote the man himself in History of the World.."it's good to be the king!"

aaawww man, so amazing to see how much he loved her.

What a beautiful love story. 41 years.

As an Irishman i can say thank god for Jewish comedy and Mel Brooks, For centuries an assailed abused people, Yet even in the face of their worst tragedies created a sort of gallows Humor, An Irreverence, or a sort of dark satire, And Damned funny comedians, And i can assure you i am not racial profiling.

Great interview. Sad that she's gone.

So sweet how he talks about her...I love Mel Brooks! My husband and I love his movies.

Anne Bancroft was a beautiful & talented actress...love you too Mel!

"political correctness is too politically correct" Indeed!!

i guess mel at 93 years old can finally talk about anne bancroft... he wouldn't talk to anyone about her after she passed, and even walked out of interviews when she was mentioned. he is one of my all-time favorite persons on earth. i hope he gets to live to be 110!

Only a genius, thanks for the memories.

What a legend. He’s just the greatest. (And the funniest). His films made in the 70s are still so sharp, witty and funny.

What a lovely interview. When he talks about his wife, I get all misty. I loved Anne Bancroft and was truly heartbroken when she died. What a beautiful talent she was.

I love Mel Brooks he is still a very funny man at 93.

Love this man, his wife & son! 3 Gifts from God

What a legend 🥺🥺

Blazing Saddles couldn't get made today and that's a world that is more sad than funny...

It was sad that he thinks Blazing Saddles went too far. I'm Black and that movie is iconic with so many other Black friends of mine and myself. This "cancel culture" needs to die. I'll be so glad when the societal pendulum swings back to the middle. This extremism and the uber-sensitive are going too far nowadays. They are destroying the very thing they thought they were standing up for. They have brought their moral meter to an area that never needed one. Mainly because it's where we go to escape ALL meters. They judge with blindness. They hate with no chance of forgiveness. And they destroy with no care of the repercussions. The audience decided by either supporting and buying tickets or not. It was that simple. And it worked! I don't look to comedy or comedians to be the moral compass of anything. They are not politicians or community leaders. They are not some religious leader preaching what's right or wrong. They are the jesters there to mock the king (society and everything in it). And people are saying they can't mock this or that now. Or at least mock in a particular way. HUH?! Do you realize the genre you're standing in with that soapbox?! Still, I admire the love and passion he still has for his wife. I can see the love and the pain simultaneously. And I hope that the woman I'm with and I can be in that same place. Even when one of us is gone. Mel, you brought TRUE laughter because you went too far. You became a generation's icon and told us about ourselves, even the extreme ways, in such ways that we actually did laugh at ourselves. You're a true treasure and the cancel culture can't take that away. No matter how bad they want the past to represent the present to form the future. They will and should fail every time. Thank you sir!!!

I dont believe I've ever seen someone so truly inlove, 15 years after her passing and he still talks with so much affection in his voice for her.

💛 Bancroft & Brooks 💛

living legend..

I LOVE how much he loved his wonderful wife. ❤

I haven't seen content about him for quite sometime. Thank you for interviewing him on his life.

This is wonderful! I’m so happy Mel is doing this for his late wife. Anne Bancroft was one of THE most underrated actors of all time. She was fascinating to watch. The DVD will be worth every penny.

Mel Brooks was stalking his future wife. They need to make a movie out of Mel Brooks' life.

Good to see Mr. Mel Brooks doing GOOD!!! “ITS GOOD 2 B THE KING!”🏆✌️

crying at their love for one another I can only hope to be so lucky

What a sweetheart. ❤️ I hope my husband talks about me like this one day.

That campfire scene is absolute gold. I've never laughed that hard in any other movie. My Brother literally peed himself when we first watched this as kids.

Everyone goes on and on about how much they love Young Frankenstein yet my favorite has always been High Anxiety.

Love to hear about how much he loved and cherished his wife. She must have adored him just as much as he did her. She said in an interview that, "even the dog thinks he's funny!" Thanks to Mel & Anne for making the world a more positive place by spreading their happiness & joy for life.

Mel Brooks is the reason why I fell in love with movies at such a young age. He is truly heaven sent in the entertainment industry.

I love You Mel! You are the best!

Favorite Mel Brooks Films l 1. Young Frankenstein 2. High Anxiety 3. Spaceballs 4. Life Stinks 5. Blazing Saddles

Ann Bancroft and Mel Brooks, these are good people....God bless them both!

I love him! He's always brought laughter to my life 😁

Love Anne Bancroft...her name was great!

I attend Mel‘s new publishing book signing meeting 4 years ago at 14 st union square New York City ，what a comed legend ，he is so funny

WOW!!!He really loves her to this moment. Everyone wishes to be loved like that. However, most of us are not. LOVE, TRUE LOVE DOES EXIST! Thank you Mel for showing us that.

Mel Brooks has always been one of my heroes and his movies have been some of my favorites. And to hear him rail against political correctness confirms why I think he is so great.

Love this man’s mind and sense of humor and the world 🌎

I love this man... To be able to just sit with Mel Brooks and eat dinner, in silence, while listening to him talk would be a DREAM come true... Alas, it’s just a dream...

We need Spaceballs 2: The Search for More Money !!!

One of my favorite Mel Brooks films is Silent Movie, I watched it again just last week.

I get real comfort knowing the greats from my mum's era are still going. It makes me feel like she's still alive. Listen to him talk! Still like he's a young guy! Incredible.

How could someone not like Mel Brooks. This man is a legend and such a humble and funny person. Great human being love Mel Brooks.

"High Anxiety" is my favorite comedy film of his. SO many great scenes in it and shot and edited so well, with superb acting.

God, do I LOVE this man. My parents played his movies when I was a kid and I have been such a massive fan ever since. I would love to meet him he is just fantastic.

I am left speechless...overwhelmed by the tenderness and love they clearly shared...

🔵Great actress. Great writer/director/actor. Loved all their movies. They were a gift to all those who love to be entertained. But the take awat for me is the wonderful love they had for each other. We should all be so lucky.💖💕

Thank you Mel for Get Smart and Young Frankenstein! Two of my favorite comedies ever. Always giving me plenty of laughs.

What a love letter! 84 Charing Cross Road was my favorite. It’s almost word perfect to the book and it opened up a world of reading to me.

I have a cherished memory of Mel and Carl Reiner sitting in a booth at Centers Deli in LA with the two of them in the booth behind me and my friends. Out of control and load they were throwing gags at one an other. Our food went unattended because we were laughing so hard. Of course that encouraged them to create a stage of their booth for everyone in ear shot. As they left they sort of sidestepped their way bowing to us their impromptu audience to the exit. We all went crazy. Still watching their movies an laughing my ads off.

My kids grew up on Mel Brooks after watching History of the world part 1 they look for History world part 2 for years and I had so much fun watching them looking for it at the store I think by the time where in high school the found out there was no part 2 I had a good laugh.

Mel Brooks, a rare comedic genius who has provided us all with so much laughter that is sorely needed in this country especially in 2021 with the pandemic. RIP Anne Bancroft.

What a love story! God bless Mel, thanks for the laughter along this journey🎭💙

I love that man for making me laugh.

Hadn't seen blazing saddles before till just recently .. and I love it lol that was comedy

How beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time 🥺 They are both wonderfully talented ❤️

It is life’s special treasure to share it which the one you love. Mr Brooks and Ms. Anne Bancroft were fortunate to have that and each other. One of the greatest women to grace the stage.

Mel Brooks is a national treasure. He’s a treasure for ALL humanity. He’s maintained such a funny and refreshing style of comedy, and he is such an unassailably good person. He is kind, sincere, generous, loving, compassionate, and absolutely legendary. Long live the great Mel Brooks! ❤️

A couple extremely difficult to compete with when it comes to talent and even more difficult to compete with when it comes to a love story. An unlikely pair but a perfect match... I enjoy watching Jody Fosters "Home for the Holidays" every year because Ann did such an amazing job playing the Mother of Holly Hunter and Robert Downey Jr.

This man is legit my idol. There will never be another one like him.

Oh my God, I love that he is pitching his wife even now at 93. What a mensch.....imagine being on the receiving end of that kind of love.

Max Brooks looks just like them both !! Wonderful family ! I am now 56 and in "show biz " myself on a much smaller level ! Mel has always been OUTSTANDING in my book !! Love, Nicky D. { east bay's own }

What a wonderful human being! We love you, Mel!

So sweet... He loves his wife immensely.. I hope everyone experiences that. 😊

Great interview, Ben.👍. Just loved Anne Bancroft. "84 Charing Cross Road" is my favorite.🎥

I love him so much, I hope he lives forever!

Young Frankenstein has, hands down, been my absolute favorite comedy!! I've watched it so many times that I think I could, literally, repeat all the dialogue of this movie!! I could, probably, watch it daily and still laugh heartily....It makes you feel that happy when watching Gene, Madeline, Cloris, and the irreverent Marty Feldman! Blazing Saddles runs a close second!! Thank You Mr. Brooks!

Thanks Mel, for decades of laughter.

Love you Mel! Been loving you since I saw the Producers as a kid.

So beautiful. Sweet, true love; how lucky for them to have had it and enjoyed it for more than forty years.

Happy Happy Birthday Mel Brooks! I am so glad you did your films in the 60s and 70s. No I don't think would be made today, which is why I am so glad you did them yesterday! Your films are were so funny! They still are and humor is what we need more than anything. hurmor and kindness! Thank You!!!!!

WHAT A GIFT THIS GUY 👦 HAS BEEN . HIS FILMS ARE FUNNY, AND TOUCHING!!!UNFORGETTABLE!!!

I love Mel. I'm glad to see him so well.

Love you Mel! Thank you for the years of laughter ❤️

My great uncle reminded me so much of Mel Brooks. He was in sales and also a watercolor painter. Same age, similar background. And his wife, my great aunt, was like Anne. A great lady, forthright, and a sharp cookie. Love at first sight for them, as well. She passed before him (of cancer, like Anne) and he was just lost. I saw Mel Brooks give a talk at the Chicago Theatre.

Mel thank you for all that good medicine over the years.

This man’s a legend❗️👏🏼

It’s nice to see that age has not dulled the legendary comedic mind of Mel Brooks. He’s still just as sharp as a tack and he reminisces with such enthusiasm. It just goes to show that even though some people get older on the outside, inside they may feel as young as ever.

One of the greatest comedy writers of all time who would rather talk about his late wife than himself? That’s true love right there.

ive loved Mels movies every one of them. He can never be replaced. A comedy geru! Best to Mel Forever!

...Loved you both..Mel & Anne. Great that you both knew what you had together.

Such a great comedian. Anne Bancroft was so beautiful. Inspirational story and

Brilliant comedian and a beautiful story of love.
