Description
"Mel Brooks' uproarious version of history proves nothing is sacred as he takes a laugh-filled look at what really happened throughout time. His delirious romp features everything from a wild send up of '2001' to the real stories behind the Roman Empire, the French Revolution and the Spanish Inquisition [with] a splashy song-and-dance number with monks and swimming nuns"-- Container.
