They all have good aspects, but sensitivities usually don't devolve to tolerate them any more.

GWTW is one. Mandingo, Roots, Blazing Saddles, are some others.

It's been a long time but I thought Blazing Saddles was a Satire that made racist white folk look awfully and hilariously stupid. The scene where Cleavon Little holds a gun to his own head "I 'm so smart - and they're soooo Stupid" or however that line went.

I mean Mel Brooks' character was completely inane - who would have thought he would have made a more sound and intelligent 45th?
