The musical tale of Annie Oakley (Betty Hutton) moves from stage to screen in this rollicking film adaptation. Renowned in the Wild West as a sharpshooter, Annie meets her match, both romantically and professionally, in the form of fellow ace gunslinger Frank Butler (Howard Keel). While Annie and Frank are performing as part of the famous traveling show headlined by the legendary Buffalo Bill (Louis Calhern), the two compete and flirt, with plenty of ups and downs along the way.

Stalwart baritone Howard Keel makes an impressive Hollywood debut as Hutton's leading man.

A loud and gaudy production of a hit play turned into a hit movie.

In this fun musical, Betty Hutton gives perhaps an overenergetic peformance in a part that was intended for Judy Garland before she was fired.

The best musical movie ever made! With the best movie character ever portrayed: Betty Hutton as Annie Oakley! And 2 of the best movie songs ever sung: Anything You Can Do and There's No Business Like Show Business!

I'm not a great fan of musical, but this movie was still bearable. As for a modern viewer the horribly racist portrayal of native americans was painfull to look at.
