Movie Reviews of Calamity Jane
Movie Review: FUN for the whole family!
Summary: 5 Stars
Doris Day at her rip-roaring best! Great songs, great dance routines and just a feel-good movie. It takes liberties with the actual events, but who cares? This turns out swell in the end.
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'GormanDeadwood 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. Arrived the lady in question appears (at first) to be a more feminine rival for the favors of Jane's male friends ... including her friendly enemy Wild Bill Hickock.Running Time: 101 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: WESTERN/MISC.
