Cast: DUDLEY DO-RIGHT, NELL FENWICK, INSPECTOR FENWICK, SNIDELY WHIPLASH. 4 mins. RM
•BLAZE GLORY (1969)
This animated (pixillated, via the magic of stop-motion photography, to be exact) delight is a satire of the Old West, replete with stock characters, cliched dialogue and the final showdown at High Noon. A stagecoach is robbed by the villain, the heroine is
abducted and Blaze Glory eventually recovers both the lady and the money. Everyone appears to ride "invisible" horses and the hero is an intrepid champion of justice and purity in this zany send-up of Hollywood horse-operas. Think MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL meet John Ford's STAGECOACH and CHICKEN RUN and BLAZING SADDLES. All in ten minutes. The amazing thing about this movie, is how precisely thought out and original the concept is. The actual technique is good, but because the actors sometimes move around a bit, you can tell it's not stills. What a totally wacky concept. The best thing about the movie, is Blaze Glory's ten-gallon Stetson hat combined with the heroine's fluttering eyelashes. Because it's all a spoof, these features are totally over-the top exaggerations. (Producers Chuck Menville and Len Janson were stalwarts of the old Filmation cartoon firm.) Listen closely for the voice of TED (ADDAMS FAMILY) CASSIDY! Prod. Len Janson, Chuck Menville, Pete Vanlaw.

•THE BROTHERS O'TOOLE
(1973),
A pair of slick drifters ride into a sleepy mining town in Colorado not realizing there is a $30 million bonanza in the mine beneath the town. The unexpected windfall has a unique effect on the townspeople.
The Old West has never been funnier than when these ne'er-do-wells turn a sleepy mining town upside-down in their search for quick riches.
This Western comedy involves a convoluted plot about searching for gold and rescuing fair damsels. Don't look for any depth or hidden meanings in this one!
Veteran character actor Richard Erdman warms the director's chair for THE BROTHERS O'TOOLE. This barely-released western spoof stars John Astin and Steve Carlson as the con-artist title-characters, at large in 1890 Colorado. The comedy centres around a gold hunt. HANS CONRIED provides some of the film's brightest moments as a bombastic, slovenly politician. Erdman himself plays a small role, sharing screen-time with such reliables as Jesse White, Pat Carroll, LEE MERIWEATHER and Allyn Joslyn.
Michael O'Toole: "I have, in my time, visited three political conventions, four sessions of congress, and two homes for the criminally insane. I have known army generals, steam doctors, vegetarians, prohibitionists, and a female suffragette. But never, even in an Orangeman's Day parade, have I seen such pure and stainless brainlessness as I now behold in you. The Almighty, in His infinite wisdom and mercy, has given the worm enough sense to turn with, and the barnacle can grasp whatever happens to be standing by. But you are equipped with a mental capacity smaller than you were born with. Here we are, benighted in the middle of a nowhere named Molly-Be-Damn - a dreary little rookery, Timothy, a squalid sty, a festering pustule on the face of the western slope. Bless the town and bless the people! Look at them - the rabble of this cantankerous community! Knaves
and fools, louts and lardheads, the least of all God's creatures, without enough push to pick the fleas off each other, abiding in putrefaction and inertia, curled up comfy in it like hogs in a mud hole! And while I, of all people, fret and sweat for a way to pull these Simple Simons out of the bog, you stand around making flatulent noises for the titillation of the vulgar mob. And while he's bubbling himself, what are you doing, you pusillanimous pack of popcorn pickers? You clattered clutch of clucks? The town dilapidating around you, coasting downhill in a handcart to Hell while you stand about gaping for flies and going patty-cake with your hands!
Mayor: There now! Now just one minute you!
Michael O'Toole: All right, all right, all right! Fine! Keep it, and treasure it the way it is! For when all this trash has collapsed into one pile, and the howling wilderness has claimed its own again, I want you hicks to be happy, belching and spitting, laughing and singing, swinging from tree to tree, with your friend Soapy Sam here, the Uriah Heep of the hookworm belt, standing around below waiting to steal anything that falls to the ground. If a nut should drop and fall - leave it lying there. It's probably my little brother Timothy.
Sheriff: Is that all?
[O'Toole throws up his hands]
Sheriff: [Crowd applauds]
Sheriff: By acclamation - the winner of the cussin' contest - Michael O'Toole!
