Description
This is a summary of the Mel Brooks movie, History of the World, which is split into five sections. In the first section, "The Stone Age", a caveman invents music after dropping a rock on his foot. However, the development of the fine arts brings with it an unwelcome side-effect - the birth of the critic. In the second section, "The Roman Empire", Jesus and his disciples are served by a pushy waiter at the Last Supper, whilst in "The Spanish Inquisition" a big-budget musical number is turned into. Truly revolting peasants revolt in "The French Revolution" and "Coming Attractions" promises a sequel featuring Hitler performing an ice ballet.
