Blazing Saddles (With Golf Book)

The railroad's got to run through the town of Rock Ridge. How do you drive out the townfolk in order to steal their land? Send in the toughest gang you've got...and name a new sheriff who'll last about 24 hours. But that's not really the plot of Blazing Saddles, just the pretext. Once Mel Brooks' lunatic film many call his best gets started, logic is lost in a blizzard of gags, jokes, quips, puns, howlers, growlers and outrageous assaults upon good taste or any taste at all. Cleavon Little as the new lawman, Gene Wilder as the wacko Waco Kid, Brooks himself as a dim-witted politico and Madeline Kahn in her Marlene Dietrich send-up that earned an Academy Award nomination all give this sagebrush saga their lunatic best. And when Blazing Saddles can't contain itself at the finale, it just proves the Old West will never be the same!

Customer Review: A Mel Brooks Classic!!!

This was a very funny spoof of the Western genre. A town full of rednecks gets a new sheriff who happens to be black. Although I'm not black, but it pissed me off when the white people called Sheriff ...

Customer Review: Classic

This is the only movie that I can quote . I love it and almost all people have a favorite line from this classic. Mel Brooks at his directoral genius.
