Mel Brooks' block at Grauman's Chinese Theater

On the 40th anniversary of Young Frankenstein (in 2014), Grauman’s Chinese Theater asked Mel Brooks to add his hands and feet to their court on Hollywood Boulevard. Brooks added a prosthetic finger to one hand. After the ceremony, he said 
"Somebody's going to come in from Des Moines, Iowa, and say, 'Mother, mother come see what -- is it Mel Brooks' left hand? Does he have six fingers?'  'Yes, father, he's got six fingers.' "
