Doris Day plays one of her best roles ever as Calamity Jane; a wild cowboy-woman who roams the West. She doesn't need no man...until love blooms when least expected.

Review: Yes, Doris Day went from Buckskin to dresses in what I think is the best musical ever made. Unmatched in charm and flawless in beauty, Doris Day is the most adorable actress that ever graced the big screen.

Summary: Incredible! Doris Day Tears Up the Joint!
Review: While Marilyn Monroe and Jane Russell were slinking it up in "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" over at 20th Century Fox in 1953, Doris Day was dressed in buckskins and boots and wore no make-up and sang and danced up a storm on the Warner Brothers soundstages.One reviewer at the time said, "by the picture's end, Miss Day is within hailing distance of Ginger Rogers and Judy Garland." Well, I think she caught up with them and passed. She was truly wonderful in this timeless musical. It was the launching pad for what was to happen later in Doris' career. She would, after this picture, become a superstar, and in 1959 through 1966, the top female box office star of all time. "Calamity Jane" was the best western musical ever to come out of Hollywood. The script, the wonderful music, dancing and cast made it a sure-fire hit. "Secret Love", Doris' hit record from the film, not only won the Academy Award, but remained England's longest charting #1 hit (13 weeks) for 40 years. Miss Day's record was finally beat by Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You". That's some record. Doris Day, herself, chooses "Calamity" as her own favorite film, next to "Love Me or Leave Me". Personally, I have four of her musicals among MY favorites: "Calamity Jane," "Love Me or Leave Me," "The Pajama Game," and "Young at Heart". As you might guess, I, too recommend this picture to those who have never seen it. Get it before it goes out of print!

Summary: A Great Wonderful Clean Movie!
Review: Calamity Jane is a great movie. If you like Doris Day, musicals, and westerns, then this is your movie. It starts off with Doris Day playing the character Calamity Jane. She lives in Deadwood City most of the time. She is in love with an army general, who doesn't exactly feel the same way about her. Everything changes in Calamity Jane's lifestyle when the supposed Adelaide Adams comes to play in Deadwood City. It is a good, wholesome, family film that you can watch with your children.

Summary: A VIBRANT DORIS DAY.
Review: The infamous Martha Jane Canary - otherwise known as "Calamity Jane" - was in reality a morally "loose" woman who looked rather ugly and dressed like a man (Doris Day she wasn't!). However, this film was meant to be a fantasia on Canary's life, and the result is a thoroughly delightful movie, with a youthfully beautiful Doris Day energetically doing bouncy numbers as both a tomboy and, later in the film, as a "lady". The music score, which was supervised by Ray Heindorf has Keel and Doris sing the pleasant BLACK HILLS OF DAKOTA and Day was never more radiant than in her singing of the AA winning song SECRET LOVE. Filmed in vibrant Technicolor, this thoroughly fun confection was given first-rate treatment making CALAMITY JANE an amusing classic Western-Musical for viewers of all ages to enjoy time and again.

Summary: a terrific musical!
Review: This is one of the best musicals of the fifties and easily Doris Day's best starring role. Her acting is wonderful and so is Howard Keel's. I find myself singing the songs from this movie at the most unexpected times! This is a movie that you won't grow tired of watching.
