Mel Brooks: Make a Noise (2013)

Charting the triumphant trajectory of a comedy colossus, 'Mel Brooks: Make a Noise' delves into the six-decade-long career of an entertainer who has amassed more accolades than any other living artist. Born Melvin Kaminsky, he honed his irreverently humorous persona amidst the bustling streets of Brooklyn and the serene Catskill Mountains.
