Brooks stole that bit from a Woody Allen standup routine from the mid 60s: “And suddenly my whole life passed before my eyes. I saw myself as a kid again, in Kansas, going to school, swimming at the swimming hole, and fishing, frying up a mess-o-catfish, going down to the general store, getting a piece of gingham for Emmy-Lou. And I realise it's not my life. They're gonna hang me in two minutes, the wrong life is passing before my eyes. And I spoke to them, and I was really eloquent, I said "Fellas, this country can't survive, unless we love one another regardless of race, creed or colour". And they were so moved by my words, not only did they cut me down and let me go, but that night, I sold them two thousand dollars worth of Israel Bonds.”
I can think of this: it's not for the broad audience - you have to get the references (be smart enough), it's not about sci-fi or fantasy lore, it's not packed with action, certainly the Hitler part doesn't help... Also musicals in general are not easy to sell. Personally I do like it very much.
“Wait a minute. My name’s not Alvin.... This is not my life..... Somebody else’s life is flashing before my eyes...WHAT THE HELL IS THAT ABOUT!!!” Best line ever..
When I saw this at the theatre there was an extra step, Intermission, where the song abruptly stops and he sits down. At the show I was at he then pretended he was eating one of the little tubs of ice cream they sell during intermission. "£3?!" he said to a pretend someone off to one side. "Where's the spoon?.... Oh... its underneath the lid!" Got a big laugh from the audience XD
The problem was that somehow something got lost between the show and the movie, that's the problem. I don't know how, maybe this musical just works better on stage.
Just like Cain and Abel You pulled a sneak attack I thought that we were brothers Then you stabbed me in the back Betrayed! Oh boy, I'm so betrayed!

I'm going down for the last time. I see my whole life flashing before my eyes. I see a weathered old farmhouse with a white picket fence. I'm running through fields of alfalfa with my collie, Rex. No, Rex, not on the alfalfa. Eheh. I see my mother standing on the back porch, in a worn but clean gingham gown, and I hear her calling out to me, "Alvin! Don't forget your chores. The wood needs a-cordin’ and the cows need a-milkin'. Alvin, Alvin..." Wait a minute! My name's not Alvin! That's not my life. Somebody else’s life if flashing before my eyes!

The playlist on Spotify had already a few bangers and this song became one of them for me. But I gotta say that with the video, it becomes at least 1000 times better. Very great acting, singing and choreography. 👏🏻😃
One of the my absolute favorite lines/gags from the Broadway show is the "Intermission!" shoutout that happens in the middle of this song. It would have made no sense in the film, but I still wish they could have figured out some lateral gag!
1:53-2:14 Wait a minute, my name’s not Alvin. That’s not my life. Somebody else’s life is flashing before my eyes. *WHAT THE HELL IS THAT ABOUT?!* I’m not a hillbilly I grew up in the Bronx. Leo’s taken everything, even my past!

Moonfire121 He's not Timon. They're two different characters in two different movies. They're just both portrayed by Nathan Lane. Check your facts before you get the actor-character distinction confused.

1:30 the greatest thing I want to see when it is my time to go to heaven and I hope to God that he forgives me I've struggled so many times I have succeeded and failed so many times I just hope that my Lord can forgive me
"Somebody else's life is flashing before my eyes... WHAT THE HELL IS THAT ABOUT?!" one of the best lines out of the movie.
+heina tarava
OMG That line makes me dead XD
That line gives me so many Timmone vibes
Out of ANY movie!
Give me those books! Fat, fat fatty! Give me those books! Fat, fat fatty! Books! Fat! Books! Fat! Books! Fat! Books! Fat! Lousy fruit, kill the actors! Do you ever eat with one!

I'll never know why this movie wasn't a box-office hit. Definitely one of Mel Brooks' best.
I agree, but you have to admit that it brings things full circle since the original was also a flop in theatres.
The producers wanted the show to flop so they could run off with a metric but ton of money
The fault is all Susan Straumann. She didn't have any prior experience directing on big-screen, despite her terriric success on Broadway.
What if this and the original were all box office hits as well as critical successes? That would've been brilliant.
I can think of this: it's not for the broad audience - you have to get the references (be smart enough), it's not about sci-fi or fantasy lore, it's not packed with action, certainly the Hitler part doesn't help... Also musicals in general are not easy to sell. Personally I do like it very much.
Let’s just talk about what a powerhouse of an entertainer Nathan Lane is.
Totally. He sings, he dances, he acts. He's got it all!
Even by HIS standards, THIS is a walk off Grand Slam. Absolutely perfect in every way.
So fun fact, in this scene they put five cameras on him and he did all this in one take. Really just shows how amazing of a performer he is.
Hello! In one swoop, just like the play on Broadway!
Why isn’t Nathan Lane’s impression of Matthew Broderick getting more recognition? Shit had me dying
It's Timon impersonating teenage Simba, what you taking about?
@@YorkshireNutte Same actors
@@YorkshireNutte More like young adult Simba
@@manuelorozco7760 Young Adult, Teenage, same thing
@@YorkshireNutte Whatever you like to put it
I love how he just basically described the whole movie in this song 😆
Exactly
Well not the *ENTIRE* movie, just all that has happened so far!
“Wait a minute. My name’s not Alvin....
This is not my life.....
Somebody else’s life is flashing before my eyes...WHAT THE HELL IS THAT ABOUT!!!”
Best line ever..
I always found that part awkward
So funny- Mel is a genius and Nathan is an amazing actor and perfect for Max- really did the role justice!
Bonus points for Nathan Lane also playing "Alvin's" mother.
I'M NOT A HILLBILLY; I GREW UP IN THE BRONX!
"Just like Julius Caesar, was betrayed by Brutus, who'd think an accountant would turn out to be my Judas?" is such a fantastic line.
His face on "Who'd thought an accountant would turn out to be my Judas?!" is incredible :D
*Sigh* Nathan Lane is truly a god among men in this movie. He does Max so well.
I know right
love how he does the whole movie in like 5 mins!! Gotta be said that Nathan Lane is bloody amazing!!!
Wow Simba, Timon raises you and you betray him? God, kids these days. They just don't respect their elders.
"Wait a minute, my name isn't Timon. This movie isn't even animated!"
They really need a laughing icon for posts like this.
Not even their foster parents?
@@ackbarfan5556 the. joke is that nathan lane also voices timon
LOL
When I saw this at the theatre there was an extra step, Intermission, where the song abruptly stops and he sits down. At the show I was at he then pretended he was eating one of the little tubs of ice cream they sell during intermission. "£3?!" he said to a pretend someone off to one side. "Where's the spoon?....

This movie should get much more recognition as I don't know anyone whose seen it. It's such a great movie! Definitely my favourite musical :3
Junk . I saw the original long time ago. Now there were funny comedians . This one crap. Not funny
although I like it a lot, it is an inferior remake.
I don't think of it as a remake of the original. It's more of an adaptation of the musical.
What movie?
The problem was that somehow something got lost between the show and the movie, that's the problem. I don't know how, maybe this musical just works better on stage.
The lighting designer for this scene deserves more recognition
You mean Shirley Markowicz?
so, tell me, .....when is he going to receive the lifetime achievement award? what in the world are the waiting for? This man is pure gold!
Definitely one of the most underrated musicals ever
I’ve been wanting it to see it on stage for years
It is actually the musical with the most Tony awards ever
LOL "underrated"
My favourite part of the live show was when Max shouted “INTERMISSION!” and stopped for a bit. 👩🍳 😘
Nathan Lane is beyond phenomenal
the soundtrack in this movie is so strong that you can effectively summarize the entire movie by doing a quick melody of the score
Just like Cain and Abel
You pulled a sneak attack
I thought that we were brothers
Then you stabbed me in the back
Betrayed!
Oh boy, I'm so betrayed!
Like Samson and Delilah
Your love began to fade
I'm crying in the hoosegow
You're in Rio getting laid!
Betrayed!
Let's face it, I'm betrayed!
Boy, have I been taken
Oy, I'm so forsaken
I should have seen what came to pass
I should have known to watch my ass!
I feel like Othello
Everything is lost
Leo is Iago
Max is double-crossed!
I'm so dismayed
Did I mention I'm betrayed?
Now I'm about to go to jail
There's no one who will pay my bail
I have no one who I can cry to
No one I can say goodbye to
I'm drowning! I'm drowning here!
I'm going down for the last time.
I see my whole life flashing before my eyes.
I see a weathered old farmhouse with a white picket fence.
I'm running through fields of alfalfa with my collie, Rex.
No, Rex, not on the alfalfa. Eheh.
I see my mother standing on the back porch, in a worn but clean gingham gown, and I hear her calling out to me, "Alvin! Don't forget your chores. The wood needs a-cordin’ and the cows need a-milkin'. Alvin, Alvin..." Wait a minute! My name's not Alvin! That's not my life. Somebody else’s life if flashing before my eyes!
What the hell is that about?!
I'm not a hillbilly.
I grew up in the Bronx.
Leo's taken everything.
Even my past!
My past's a dying ember
But wait...now I remember
How did it begin?
He walked into my office
With his cockamamie scheme
You can make more money
With a flop than with a hit
We can do it, we can do it
I can't do it
We can do it!
I can't do it!
Goodbye Max!
Lord, I want that money!
I'm back, Max!
Come on, Leo, we can do it!
Step one, find the play!
See it, smell it, touch it, kiss it!
Hello, Mister Liebkind

Guten Tag, clop-clop

Where did we go right?
Where did we go right?
Gimme those books
Fat, fat, fatty!
Gimme those books
Fat, fat, fatty!
Books, fat, books, fat, books, fat, books, fat!
Lousy fruit, kill the actors, you ever eat with one?!
Then you ran to Rio
And you're safely out of reach
I'm behind these bars
You're banging Ulla on the beach!
Just like Julius Caesar
Was betrayed by Brutus
Who'd think an accountant
Would turn out to be my Judas!
I'm so dismayed
Is this how I'm repaid?
To be... Betrayed!
BETRAYED!!
I just love the choreography of this scene. Nathan's movements, the lighting and set pieces. Just so expertly crafted and executed!
Am I the only one who is addicted to this movie?
such a talented actor
"Somebody else's life is flashing before my eyes"
WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT ABOUT!?
An acting genius, but this...this was iconic!!! 👏
God how Love ❤️ Nathan Lane and the Producers was a Great movie it should have won an Oscar for Best Picture 🏆
The playlist on Spotify had already a few bangers and this song became one of them for me.
But I gotta say that with the video, it becomes at least 1000 times better. Very great acting, singing and choreography. 👏🏻😃
I just hear Timon 😂 His voice is so unique I love it
Nathan Lane is one super talented actor !
I remember watching this in theaters and after all these years this is still my favorite number in the whole movie. Nathan Lane was superb!! ❤
The man is a genious! I love his acting entirely and completely. Thank you very much for posting this.
Good acting and I like the way this scene was done.
The little monologue he did is what I used for my first musical audition 😂
Brilliant writing, brilliant acting. Absolutely mindblowing.
I'm not a Hillbilly, I grew up in the Bronx.
Leo's taken everything...even my past!🤣🤣🤣
🎵 My past’s a dying ember! But wait, now I remember!🎵
this whole movie is pure gold... PURE... waaay better than the original... and the scenography... MY GOD!
This song perfectly describes my life.
I felt the same way when my idol betrayed me Hewy *”He Thinks I’m a Creepy Troll Stalker”* Toonmore.
There are 1 or 2 realky good amateur versions, but this shows the difference when a truly gifted professional makes a role their own.
Brilliant recap song. This should be taught in classes.
This guy sounds exactly like Nathan Lane! What a strange coincidence!
Duh, that's because it is Nathan Lane, stupid.
The joke flew way past your heads, and straight into Rio with Ulla getting laid.
senor PachuChay Zing!
nah its alvIN
I was just watching the movie yesterday. Nathan Lane is a comic knockout!
One of the my absolute favorite lines/gags from the Broadway show is the "Intermission!" shoutout that happens in the middle of this song. It would have made no sense in the film, but I still wish they could have figured out some lateral gag!
Just in case you went to the bathroom and missed anything....
Specifically if you missed the entirety of the movie
Danny Preklas, It’s those massive cokes you end up peeing like a horse.
What I love is how he only does the parts of the movie he was in
@@magwaaf yup, movie's not that meta.
Ikr!
To me this is one of the best songs in the movie.
1:53-2:14
Wait a minute, my name’s not Alvin. That’s not my life. Somebody else’s life is flashing before my eyes. *WHAT THE HELL IS THAT ABOUT?!* I’m not a hillbilly I grew up in the Bronx. Leo’s taken everything, even my past!
I really wanted Lane and Broderick to have a reunion on Only Murders in the Building
This is such a great performance!
I can help loving this man!! he is awesome.... and this scen proves he is the best musical actor EVER...
Nathan does a good Leo impression! ;)
Look at this swood grommet.
***** Ech
I know all the lyrics off by heart
smolphanemzy isprobablyonfire me too! I did this for a 'monologue' to try out for high school theater, mostly because I didn't have to memorize it.
and i thought i was the only one
You should have seen him do this on stage. Incredible. Of course the movie didn't sell tickets: the show wasn't a comic book.
This could just be my favourite scene in any film.
He may just be my favorite Broadway actor. He may just be.
Imagine the other inmates reaction to this scene going on
They should've applauded at the end.
It would have been a nice touch
someone sung this in my drama group for a concert and it was amazing! I only just found it online xd
2:58 ULA! OOO WA WEE WA WA WA WOWIE
This guy sounds EXACTLY like Jon! He even ECHs!
Amazing performance
2:32 to 3:44 - Lane earned his Tony on those 72 seconds alone.
cant wait to see Nathan Lanes at my work in Angels In America this years.
3:36 Lion King version
Timon: "Then you ran to Pride rock and you're safely out of reach. I'm being eaten by hyenas, you're banging Nala on the BEACH!"
Wait, there's no beach in Africa! DAMN YOU SIMBA!!!!
Yes there is
Oh I guess there would have to be one lol
EnergyKnife well not in where pride rock is i guess
Teyeson Bee what the fuck? In the entire African continent...there is not beach at all...whatsoever.
Seriously, look at a map, stop being an ignorant american.
Well, I wonder what I was sunbathing on last February,in Kenya.Miles of wonderful sandy beaches!
Every line on this song is a masterpiece on its own ❤
It’s one for the ages. A terrifically funny film. Superb performances and great numbers.
Best song from any musical!
My favorite movie musical of all time!!
2:03 When you friend trys to show you a new anime while you finish watching the ending of your favorite.
2:04 “WHAT THE HELL IS THAT ABOUT”
Leo's taken everything...even my past!
I remember listening to this song a few years back lol
Gosh I love this song dearly
Dear lord love this song and it brings be back to high school.
He just summed up everyone's emotion in every Among Us game.
Just like Cain and Abel
You pulled a sneak attack
I thought that we were brothers
Then you stabbed me in the back
Betrayed!

There's no one who will pay my bail
I have no one who I can cry to
No one I can say goodbye to

"Springtime for Hitler and Germany!"
A surprise smash!
"Springtime for Hitler and Germany!
It'll run for years!
"Where did we go right?
Where did we go right?"
Gimme those books
Fat, fat, fatty!
Gimme those books
Fat, fat, fatty!
Books, fat
Books, fat
Books, fat
Books, fat!
Lousy fruit
Kill the actors
You ever eat with one?!
Then you ran to Rio
And you're safely out of reach
I'm behind these bars
You're banging Ulla on the beach!
Just like Julius Caesar
Was betrayed by Brutus
Who'd think an accountant
Would turn out to be my Judas!
I'm so dismayed
Is this how I'm repaid?
To be...
Betrayed!
BETRAYED!!
Honestly I'd be a little surprised if Jon didn't play as Max in a college production of The Producers tbh.
This makes me so happy.
When he says what the hell is that about. All I hear is Timon from The Lion King
+Nicole Dugger He is Timon
No he is not
Kris O'Malley yes he is
Moonfire121 He's not Timon. They're two different characters in two different movies. They're just both portrayed by Nathan Lane.
Check your facts before you get the actor-character distinction confused.
Kris O'Malley they mean he does the voice of Timon
Are we just going to ignore how at 0:58 Nathan gets hurt BUT KEEPS GOING?
Amazing... Simply Amazing
I can't unhear Timon.
I don’t see how people hate this movie because of the Hitler play subplot, The Simpsons did it multiple times and it’s been running for 31 years!
Are those people in the room with us right now?
This is am amazing scene
If Waluigi sang this song after being rejected from Smash Bros again:
Mail call! Here ya go, Waluigi, ya got a postcard.
A postcard? From where?
The Battlefield.
The Battlefield? Who do I know in The Battlefield?
Dear Waluigi,
Smash Bros is everything you said it was and more.
Luigi and I think of you every chance we get.
In the morning, when we have breakfast at the Roost, many different mushrooms.
And in the evening, when we fight Richter and Bayonetta together in the moonlight.
Sorry, must run. Luigis waiting, it's almost eleven.
Wish you were here, Daisy
Just like Cain and Abel
You pulled a sneak attack
I thought that we were partners
Then you stabbed me in the back
Betrayed!
Oh boy, I'm so betrayed!
Like Samson and Delilah
Your friendship wasn’t true
I'm stuck inside a trophy
You're out fighting with Ryu!
Betrayed!
Let's face it, I'm betrayed!
Boy, have I been taken
Oy, I'm so forsaken
I should have seen what came to pass
I should have known to watch my ass!
I feel like Othello
Everything is lost
Daisy is Iago
Waluigi’s double-crossed!
I'm so dismayed
Did I mention I'm betrayed?
I used to be the king
But now I am the fool
A captain without a ship
A miner without a jewel!
Now I'm about to go to hell
There's no one here to wish me well
I have no one who I can cry to
No one I can say goodbye to
I'm drowning! I'm drowning here!
I'm going down for the last time.
I-I-I see my whole life flashing before my eyes. I see a weathered old farmhouse with a white picket fence.
I'm running through fields of alfalfa with my collie, Rex. Rex, Stop it!
I see my mother standing on the back porch, in a worn but clean gingham gown, and I hear her calling out to me,
"Alvin! Don't forget your chores. The wood needs a-cordin and the cows need a-milkin'. Alvin, Alvin..."
Wait a minute!
My name's not Alvin!
That's not my life.
I'm not a hillbilly.
I grew up in Brooklyn.
Daisy's taken everything.
Even my past!
My past's a dying ember
But wait... now I remember
How did it begin?
she walked into my office
With her cockamamie scheme
You can make more money
With a flop than with a hit
"We can do it, we can do it"
"I can't do it"
"We can do it!"
"I can't do it!" Goodbye Weeg!
Lord, I want that money!
I'm back, Weeg!
"Come on, Daisy, we can do it!"
Step one, find the play!
See it, smell it, touch it, kiss it!
Hello, Mister Shadow
"Guten Tag, hop clop
"Guten Tag, hop clop"
Ivo Elizabeth Robotnik?
"Guten Tag, hop clop
"Guten Tag, hop clop!"
Step two, hire the director
"Keep it gay, keep it gay, keep it..."
Two-three, kick, turn, turn, turn, kick, turn
Luigi! Oooh wah wah woo-woo- wah-wah
Step three, raise the money
"Along came the hedgehog!"
Intermission!
Step four, hire all the actors
"A wandering minstrel I, A think of shreds and...
Next!
The little wooden boy
Next!
That's our Eggman!
"Opening night!"
Good luck, good luck, good luck
Break a leg! I broke my leg!
"Springtime for Eggman and Mobius!"
A surprise smash!
"Springtime for Eggman and Mobius!”
It'll run for years!
"Where did we go right?
Where did we go right?"
Gimme those books
Fat, fat, fatty!
Gimme those books
Fat, fat, fatty!
Books, fat
Books, fat
Books, fat
Books, fat!
Lousy fruit, kill the actors,
You ever eat with one?!
Then you went to Smash
And now you're safely out of reach
I'm inside this jar
You're fighting Link with Princess Peach!
Just like Julius Caesar
Was betrayed by Brutus
Who'd think that a princess
Would turn out to be my Judas!
I'm so dismayed
Is this how I'm repaid?
To be... Betrayed!
BETRAYED!!
holy shit that was AWESOME
To all my betrayed producers out there.... We must unite ✊ this is funny as hell though
Love the brute honesty
I don’t get why people are referencing lion king. *looks away while he’s singing* **spits out drink** TIMON??
My reaction exactly
FAB
I don't know why but the Shakespeare and Bible references are somehow the perfect addition to this song.
1:30 the greatest thing I want to see when it is my time to go to heaven and I hope to God that he forgives me I've struggled so many times I have succeeded and failed so many times I just hope that my Lord can forgive me
this is so amazing ??!?
If being talented is a crime, than Nathan is not only guilty, he is...incredibly guilty!
Just like Cain and able you pulled a sneak attack I thought that we were brothers then you stabbed me in the back
Oscar worthy.
Wow, he really does sound a bit like jon.
Dimitri irtimiD He even ECHs
Dimitri irtimiD Technically Jon sounds like him
oohhyyeeaahh ...No, technically they both sound like each other. It doesn't matter who was first.
Yeah no it does matter
Yeah yes it doesn't matter. They're two different people who sound similar.
This shit a bangeeeerrrr
STAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABED!!!!!!!! Nathan Lane rocks!
Um...Hakuna Matata?
This scene is the whole movie. You don't need to see anything else.
1:00 how much you wanna bet this bit wasn't scripted?
Is this Jontron when he shaves?
