Taggart: We'll work up a Number 6 on 'em.
Hedley Lamarr: [frowns] "Number 6"? I'm afraid I'm not familiar with that one.
Taggart: Well, that's where we go a-ridin' into town, a-whompin' and a-whumpin' every livin' thing that moves within an inch of its life. Except the women folks, of course.
Hedley Lamarr: You spare the women?
Taggart: Naw, we rape the shit out of them at the Number Six Dance later on.
Hedley Lamarr: Marvelous!
Hedley Lamarr: Qualifications?
Applicant: Rape, murder, arson, and rape.
Hedley Lamarr: You said rape twice.
Applicant: I like rape.
I would put Blazing Saddles as one of the best comedies ever made, and probably the best mel brooks movie ever made.
A few months ago blazing saddles was on a cable tv channel. Just being curious, I looked the cast on wikipedia and did not know that Cleavon Little (the black sheriff) died back in 1992, he was only 53 years old. I had not seen him on tv for a long time, and thought he left hollywood. but come to find out he died from colon cancer <sad face>
Fletch 2It amazes me but i can't think of any other movie he was in besides blazing saddles. He shoulda been in more comedies.
I find it offensive they bleep or mute out "******" whenever it's shown on cable TV [even late at night].
This is one of those comedy movies people should watch before they die.![]()
