Mel Brooks' Western spoof, in which he co-stars alongside Cleavon Little, Gene Wilder and Madeline Kahn.

Mel Brooks' raucously irreverent Western spoof stars Gene Wilder and Cleavon Little as a drunken gunslinger and a black sheriff who defend a frontier town from a nasty tycoon.

While taking hilarious potshots at racism and stereotypes (Madeleine Kahn's trashy saloon singer is unforgettable), the film is still best remembered for its symphonic campfire scene. More beans anyone?
