Mel Brooks on Blazing New Comedic Trails in 'Blazing Saddles'

Mel Brooks on Blazing New Comedic Trails in 'Blazing Saddles': With a new 40th anniversary Blu-ray edition dropping this week, we got Brooks on the horn to talk all things "Blazing Saddles." In his inimitably frenetic style, Brooks recounted how Richard Pryor gave the filmmaker license to use the N-word, even though he couldn't get Pryor cast; how Gene Wilder stepped in to save the film; and why "Blazing Saddles" should be considered the single greatest comedy of all-time.
