Blazing Saddles

The railroads bound to run right through the sleepy town of Rock Ridge. Land there will be worth a fortune--but the townfold already own their own land. How do you drive them out? Send in the roughest, toughest, meanest, leanest, gang you've got... and appoint a new sheriff you figure will last about 24 hours.

But that's not really the plot, its just the pretext. Once the film gets going, logic is lost in a blizzard of gags, jokes, quips, puns, howlers, growlers, and outrageous assaults upon good taste--or any taste for that matter!

Cleavon Little as the new lawman, Gene Wilder stars as the wacko Waco Kid, Mel Brooks himself as dimwitted politico and madeline Kahn in her Marlene Dietrich sendup that earned an Acadamy Award nomination.

Mel Brooks' comic saga of cowboys and imbeciles.
