Blazing Saddles

(1974) Cleavon Little, Gene Wilder, Harvey Korman, Slim Pickens, Madeline Kahn. Dir: Mel Brooks.
To convince townsfolk to leave their valuable land, a corrupt politician sends them a black sheriff. Mix of new jokes and old, and the racial angle still feels daring, but it never gathers much momentum. Not helped by the leads, who have no real personality for you to root for.
