Hammy and vain Joseph gave priceless imitations of Hamlet, Colonel Ehrhardt and Professor Siletsky and other disguises to fool the gullible Nazis.Robinson.Short-statured (5"6") Jewish actor Dustin Hoffman had already been cast as Nazi playwright Franz Liebkind inThe Producers (1968)when he bowed out and took the role of bumbling graduate Benjamin Braddock.[The real blacks in the film only played in minor roles.]Its climactic finale, the suppression of the black hreat to white society by the glorious Ku Klux Klan, helped to assuage some of America"s sexual fears about the rise of defiant, strong (and sexual) black men and the repeal of laws forbidding intermarriage.He was critical of them for chewing gum and assuming "terrible" stylized poses like brain-less mannequins, and at one point shouted out: "Wake up!" The "mods" ignored his direction to "Smile" and he reprimanded them: "What"s he matter? Have you forgotten what a smile is?" Seeming bored, cranky, demanding, and slightly contemptuous, he cut short the photo-shoot when he realized that he had tired them: "I can"t see your eyeballs anymore.I"ll bet David loves your eyes.And your hair.Does he run his fingers through your hair? Have to get you all nice for David.For David.I hope he likes what he sees when he walks in here, because that"s what he"s taking to Hell with him.
