Only Mel Brooks would tell his laugh-packed tale about a "Silent Movie"—as a silent movie—with one word of dialogue. As the ruthless conglomerate Engulf and Devour targets a floundering movie studio, has-been Director Mel Funn (Brooks) convinces the paranoid Studio Chief (Caesar) to make a star-studded silent picture. Aided by his sidekicks (DeLuise & Feldman), the devious Funn actually manages to sign some of the biggest names in Hollywood: Paul Newman, Liza Minelli, Burt Reynolds, Anne Bancroft, and James Caan. (Tricia Spears)
