A ‘crazed grab bag of a movie that does everything to keep us laughing’ (The Chicago Times). The classic Western satire is celebrating its 50th anniversary with a brand new 4K restoration. Welcome to the Western only Mel Brooks could create. Voted #6 on AFI’s 100 Years…100 Laughs, this comedy classic stars Cleavon Little and Gene Wilder as a sheriff and sharpshooter defending a small town from villains Slim Pickens and Harvey Korman. Featuring a brilliant cast that includes Brooks and an Oscar®-nominated Madeline Kahn and loaded with one-liners, gags and cameos, this breakthrough parody still breaks the rules, breaks stereotypes and breaks wind, all in one sitting. See it again and laugh like it’s the first time!
