Movie Reviews of Calamity Jane
Movie Review: Great songs, fun plot
Summary: 4 Stars
A must have for anyone who likes musicals. Doris Day makes a great Calam, both before and after her makeover, and Howard Keel is his usual, slightly misogenistic but charming self. Lots of great songs, good dancing, and some very funny scenes.
Summary of Calamity Jane
This 1953 musical is very much a vehicle for Doris Day, in the title role, as a wild cowgal who can outshoot and outsing any boy on the range. When an actress arrives in Deadwood and uses her feminine charms on Jane's secret love, Wild Bill Hickock (Howard Keel), Jane tries to mend her tomboy ways. Not exactly up to the feminist code of honor, this is still energetic and Day is very perky. Of course, one could almost detect a homosexual undercurrent with the cross-dressing Jane, but this was Hollywood in the 1950s, so we best not. This won an Oscar for Best Song--"Secret Love," by Sammy Fain and Paul Francis Webster. --Rochelle O'GormanKids & Family DVD Video
