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; Gene Wilder; Slim Pickens; Harvey Korman; Madeline Kalin and more join for horseplay and horselaughs, making Blazing Saddles the #6 choice among the American Film Institute's Top-100 Comedies.

The recently-late Mel Brooks was renowned for the comedy films he made. Not only is this probably his funniest, it is one of THE funniest ever. With uncharacteristically Un-American humour, this film is a hoot from beginning to end - very clever lines and scenes that'll have you laughing and rewinding over and over again.
