He was great in "Blazing Saddles" ; his flair for comedy was put to good use. My favourite role of his was as the ponderous deputy in Brando's underated western "One Eyed Jacks".

Can’t forget him riding the nuclear bomb like a horse as it plunges to ground in Dr. Strangelove.

One of the greatest character actors ever! Riding the bomb in Dr. Strangelove, and smelling cowboy bean farts in Blazing Saddles!
