Clowns and the Holocaust. Who wouldn’t want to see that? Never released due to the bad taste factor, but after Life is Beautiful, could the world be ready to see Jerry Lewis take on the death camps? Read about the movie’s history in an article from Film Threat.

Read the final draft (with notations from the set) and view behind-the-scenes footage at Subterranean Cinema.

As Who Framed Roger Rabbit was a parody of film noir, this movie would have taken on the war genre, with Roger involved in WWII. I have a hard copy of this script, but haven’t had the chance to get it transcribed. Read a review at Film Buff Online. See “Who Screwed Roger Rabbit” at the Animation World Network.
