Day 6 – Favorite comedy movie
Blazing Saddles

I don't think I saw this in the theater - I'd have been nine when it came out. I'm pretty sure it had an "R" rating, too. I do remember watching it at home with my mom and dad on a Sunday afternoon (back when they showed movies on Sunday afternoons) and laughing hysterically - although I'm pretty certain that many of the jokes went over my head (although I do remember loving the idea of Mel Brooks, quintessential Jew, as an Indian chief speaking Yiddish).
At some point, later in my teenage years, when my parents got cable, I saw it for the first time without any over-dubs or cuts and frankly, it was ten times funnier and amazingly shocking.
I make a point of watching it at least once a year, it makes me happy, but it also makes me squirm. So much has changed, and so much has (sadly) remained the same.
Trivia: Mel Brooks is an Academy Award winner for this movie - he won for the lyrical to the movie's title song.
