This is a very funny Mel Brooks film, a parody of westerns that was also a biting satire of racism. The plot involves a newly appointed Black sheriff to a small town, who is immediately met with prejudice. Since it is by Brooks, it of course has anachronisms and silliness running all through it.
There are so many clips that could be shown but here are just three that stand out in my mind.
I enjoyed seeing some of the the actors and the people behind the scenes of the film reminisce about it.
