Nice Mel Brooks interview on Salon

Let me tell you this cute story. I had just met Alfred Hitchcock. I was really stunned. My God, he was a legend when I was just a kid. So I got to meet him and I was asking his advice on a movie I was making called �High Anxiety.� It was all based on his films. So I was talking to Hitchcock, and he said, �Mel, I think what you should do �� And I said, �Al, call me Mr. Brooks.� He looked at me like I was a shithead. But then he took a moment, and he burst into laughter. �Call me Mr. Brooks. I like that.� OK, Calabria, what have you got on your mind?
