According to Wikipedia the average movie ticket price in 1974 was $1.87. For that $2 or so, movie-goers were treated to an eclectic list of box office choices, from The Longest Yard to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre; The Lords of Flatbush to Death Wish. Amidst the litany of mid-70's disaster films, horror flicks and action movies shines one creative and unique comedy, Mel Brooks' Young Frankenstein. One of my favorite scenes from this movie is when "The Monster" (Peter Boyle) and Dr. Frankenstein (Gene Wilder) perform Putting on the Ritz. I would be remiss to leave this great scene off my list of Best Musical Moments in Movies. (now watch and laugh)
