another chapter in the ongoing question and whatever happen to mel brooks sense of humor . it start out nicely enough and with mel a trump like mogul goddard bolt ( you can call me god ) and who accept a bet that he can not live on the street for 30 day . but the moment the movie hit the street and it turn into a pathos laden mess and with occasional funny bit interject ( mel see a black kid break dance for money and try to do a vaudeville buck and wing and yuk and yuk ) . leslie ann warren be nothing short of wasted . the bad part be this movie musical number and in which brook and warren do a silent dance to cole porter easy to love . brook musical parody be usually the highlight of his movie while here he play the whole thing straight and like a dance excerpt from an age guest star on the carol burnett show ( on which rudy deluca and this film co writer and begin his career ) . go rent charlie chaplin the kid and which cover the same ground 70 year before and do a lot .
