The MAD World of Harvey Kurztman (2026)

From the crowded immigrant neighborhoods of 1920s Brooklyn, a firebrand named Harvey Kurtzman emerged—and in his wake, comics, satire, and mainstream culture would never be the same. This film dives deep into his explosive legacy through never-before-seen archives, candid conversations, hand-drawn animation, and a soulful jazz soundtrack. It uncovers the visionary mind behind MAD Magazine, the man who rewired American comedy and reshaped the language of visual narrative for generations to come.
