    During the 70s, comedian Jerry Lewis personally financed, heavily rewrote, directed, and starred in the story of Helmut Doork, a down-on-his-luck German clown who angers the Nazis with a drunken rant against Hitler, is sent to a concentration camp, and accompanies a group of children into a gas chamber where they all die.

    ....yeah.

    In this thread, we can collectively marvel over the fact that this is an actual thing that exists in the real world.

    Except not buy the film rights in full, which may jeopardize the public's ability to see the movie even after donating it to the Library of Congress.

    Sometimes people never have the foresight to plan ahead.

    All I remember about this movie was when we watched it on Kiwi Movie Night and I said in chat "is this the scene where Magneto gets his powers" and everyone lost their shit for like five minutes.
