Calamity Jane
Deadwood, Dakota Territory, is largely the abode of men, where Indian scout Calamity Jane is as hard-riding, boastful, and handy with a gun as any; quite an overpowering personality. But the army lieutenant she favors doesn't really appreciate her finer qualities. One of Jane's boasts brings her to Chicago to recruit an actress for the Golden Garter stage.

Neither great, nor perhaps even very good, the film remains a charming artifact.
March 25, 2006
A shrill and preposterous musical Western.
April 08, 2016
A must for Doris Day fans -- she gives a rousing, no-holds barred performance that is unquestionably the making of the film.
March 31, 2006
Fun, snappy Warner musical with colorful Day and Keel.
April 07, 2016
As a pistol-packin' cowgirl in fringed leather trousers, Day is terrific, an object of athletic awe and irrepressible good cheer.

Doris Day works very, very hard at being Calamity and is hardly realistic at all.
April 10, 2016
Boisterous fun, with Day's performance - as the song goes - as busy as a fizzy sarsaparilla.
April 07, 2016
The tunes are gold, and as Jane approaches a local creek, resplendent in her gorgeous yellow gown, we get one of the most famous visual gags in the history of the musical.

The opening sequence of this wonderful musical is pure pleasure, as Doris Day rides the Deadwood stage across the screen and into our hearts.
August 01, 2005
A modest studio-set musical Western.
April 08, 2016
Even if the screenwriters were obviously inspired by the mega-success of Annie Get Your Gun, that doesn't make this funny, rambunctious entertainment a mere rip-off.
