Blazing Saddles Blu-Ray

Ribald, tasteless and hilarious, this classic spoof of the Western genre by director Mel Brooks pokes fun at everyone and everything. The film adopts a broad, satirical tone while upending the conventions of frontier tales, using irreverent comedy to expose the absurdities of power and prejudice.

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 the new sheriff will only live long enough to serve the governor and his nefarious railroad‑baron backer. The film received Academy Award nominations for Best Actress in a Supporting Role (Madeline Kahn); Best Music, Original Song; and Best Film Editing.
