BLAZING SADDLES
Ribald, tasteless and hilarious … this classic spoof of the Western genre by director Mel Brooks pokes fun at everyone and everything.
Blazing Saddles (50th anniversary) will be released for the first time on 4K Ultra HD and Digital on November 19.
A corrupt governor grants a reprieve to an African American convict if the condemned man agrees to serve as sheriff of a small Western town, believing that new sheriff will only live long enough to serve the needs of the governor and his nefarious railroad-baron backer.
The film is directed by Mel Brooks. The screenplay is by Brooks, Norman Steinberg, Andrew Bergman, Richard Pryor, and Alan Uger and based on characters by Hughes. The film is produced by Michael Hertberg.
Blazing Saddles received 3 Academy Award nominations for Best Actress in a Supporting Role (Madeline Kahn); Best Music, Original Song; and Best Film Editing. In 2006, Blazing Saddles was selected for preservation in the National Film Registry by the United States Library of Congress as being culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.
