This film is one of my favourites. It is funny and touching, has great songs and superb performances. The opening song, is probably the most rousing opening song in a musical. The other songs "Windy City", "Secret Love" "Woman's touch" and "Take Me To The Black Hills" are all outstanding and beautifully staged. The costumes and sets were fabulous too. The performances are fantastic.The always lovely Howard Keel is excellent as Wild Bill Hicock; maybe I'm biased because I can never get enough of Keel's wonderful singing voice. The scene where he dressed up as an Indian, cracked me up. But the main strength of the movie is the wonderful Doris Day, and I seriously can't imagine anyone else who can do Calamity better. She put great energy into "Windy City", and "Secret Love" was beautiful. Her change of heart at the end was so believable, and for the songs and Day, watch this musical! 10/10 Bethany Cox
