In the Old West, corrupt attorney general Hedley Lamarr wants to depopulate the town of Rock Ridge to make millions off of land speculation. Manipulating circumstances, he angles to have a black railroad worker appointed sheriff, only to find out the new sheriff is way more capable than he imagined.
Why we're showing it: A satirical, iconoclastic take on the Western, Blazing Saddles is one of Mel Brooks' most celebrated (and controversial!) films. With non-stop gags, it takes aim at all types of racial prejudice while stars Cleavon Little, Gene Wilder and Madeline Kahn light up the screen.
+ The bar will be open for evening showtimes.
