Trivia
After Along Came Bialy, Max goes into the safe and says "Hello boys" and later Leo is looking at the papers saying "work, work, work, work" that is referring to a scene from Blazing Saddles when the Mayor (Mel Brooks) is signing contracts and says "work, work, work, work, hello boys have a good night rest I missed you" See more...
The Producers mistakes
Continuity: When Leo and Max first meet, Max throws water on Leo. When Leo leaves the office his shirt is magically dry.
Continuity: During Ulla's audition, at some point she is behind the desk somewhat bending over Max. Her veil falls down on her left arm. There is then a cut and her veil is back up in its proper position, then in the next cut it's back down as it was two cuts before.
The Producers trivia
In the first scene in Max's office, there is a calendar showing the date as June 16. Leopold Bloom is a character in James Joyce's Ulysses, which recounts the events of a single day. June 16th.
When Ulla first enters the office, watch the eyes on the Funny Boy poster. They move.
Mel Brooks "composed" the music for the Broadway show (which would go on to become this movie) by humming tunes into a tape recorder. Someone who was musically literate would then write it down on staff paper.
