Blazing Saddles is a 1974 comedy from director Mel Brooks that spoofs American Western films and the less-celebrated cultural stereotypes of early America. The film takes place in 1874, in the small town of Rock Ridge, where a proposal for a new railroad line has the town up in arms. In an attempt to break up the town and make room for the highly profitable railroad, Governor William J. LePetomane (played by Mel Brooks) appoints a new, African American sheriff to keep the law in Rock Ridge. Bart (Cleavon Little) knows the racist reasoning behind his recent promotion, but since the alternative was death by hanging, he takes the job and runs with it. Bart has his work cut out for him, keeping the peace in a town where no one respects his authority, but he has a little help-the drunk but honorable gunslinger known as the Waco Kid (Gene Wilder). Together, Bart and The Waco Kid fight the forces of oppression and governmental greed to keep the railroad out of Rock Ridge. Blazing Saddles is a classic comedy, co-starring Slim Pickens and Dom DeLuise.moreless
