Mel Brooks: Make a Noise journeys through Brooks’ early years in the creative beginnings of live television — with Sid Caesar on Your Show of Shows — to the film genres he so successfully satirized in Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles, High Anxiety, and Spaceballs — to the groundbreaking Broadway musical version of his first film, The Producers. The documentary also delves into his professional and personal ups and downs — his childhood, his first wife and subsequent 41-year marriage to Anne Bancroft — capturing a never-before-heard sense of reflection and confession.

Tras 60 años de carrera, el actor, guionista, productor y director neoyorquino Mel Brooks es una de las 14 personas del grupo EGOT, es decir, que ha ganado, como mínimo, un premio Emmy, un Grammy, un Oscar y un Tony. Este documental, que recorre su carrera desde sus comienzos en la televisión hasta sus grandes éxitos con "El jovencito Frankenstein", "Sillas de montar calientes" o "Los productores", es un inédito acercamiento a este gigante de la comedia.
