Blazing Saddles (1974)

On today’s episode, we discuss the undisputed satirical movie champion of all-time, written out of Mel Brook’s anger at white corruption, racism and bible-thumping bigotry in America. We are talking about 1974’s Blazing Saddles. Could you make this movie today? How incredible is Cleavon Little and Gene Wilder’s chemistry? Is this the best on-screen fart scene ever?
