When BLAZING SADDLES premiered in 1974 at the Pickwick Drive-In in Burbank, most of the audience arrived on horseback! I'm doing a live appearance after a special 50th Anniversary screening at the Peacock Theater on July 27 at 7:30pm... but please leave your horse at home!
Ahead of this weekend's 50th anniversary celebration of "Blazing Saddles," 800 Pound Gorilla News got to engage with the director & star Mel Brooks. We talk about his landmark film, breaking the fourth wall & what he still wants to satirize in his career. 800poundgorillamedia.com/blogs/the-laug…
I want to thank the wonderful audience who came to the Peacock Theater on Saturday night to see me and celebrate the 50th anniversary of BLAZING SADDLES. You were such a great crowd that I’m still walking on air!

TO BE OR NOT TO BE ('83) marked the first onscreen pairing of Anne Bancroft with her husband, actor & filmmaker Mel Brooks. Already married for nearly two decades, the two star in the film as husband and wife. See it tonight as part of Bancroft's #SummerUndertheStars tribute.
