Quote #10
HEDLEY: It's all right, Taggart. Just a man and a horse being hung out there.
When there's a sudden noise, Taggart jumps and hugs Hedley Lamarr for comfort. And Hedley settles him down by saying that he's just heard a man and his horse being hung outside. Of course, it's absolutely ridiculous to literally hang a man and the horse he rode in on. But Mel Brooks is so captivated by the insane lack of judgment and justice in the Old West that he can't resist creating these nonsensical situations.
