Last week after a long touristy day in California I began watching Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles on tv in our hotel room. Are you familiar with this movie? It's pretty ridiculous, but I grew up in a house of fans of most Mel Brooks productions. Well, Madeline Kahn was in quite a few of his films as well as another family favorite, Clue. After watching her famous performance of "I'm Tired" in the movie, I've been on a performance-video kick of anything she's done.
Anyway, as I've watched different videos, I came across this clip of Madeline on the Carol Burnett Show (love her, too!). I thought it was charming, and funny. Enjoy!
You have seen her in "What's Up Doc?", right? That was her break out roll. She is brilliant. I love her too. Joyce.
ReplyDeleteI haven't but I have a list of shows of her's to see and that's on it. :)
