Curb Your Dog

In a priceless Curb, Mel Brooks hires Larry to play the lead in The Producers with the hope the show will fail—and he and Anne Bancroft can get a break from counting all the money. There’s a subplot. In honor of a tenth anniversary, Larry’s wife offers him the opportunity to fuck around. Just before curtain call he meets a woman who is enthralled by the soon to be Broadway star. When asked what she does, she replies she teaches fellatio, “I’m a fellatio teacher,” she says. In the meanwhile the show must go on. Mel and Anne are gleeful when their mark forgets his lines and audiences start to file out. Then Larry starts to improvise. Fill in the blanks and...curb your dog.
