Calamity Jane: A few minutes ago. Just hit the jackpot, so I'm buying the drinks.
Bob Holliday: Busy now.
Calamity Jane: Aw, now, a lady don't enjoy drinking by herself. We sitting together at the show tonight?
Bob Holliday: Maybe. You going home and change your clothes? Don't you ever wear dresses anymore?
Calamity Jane: Not unless I have to. Makes me feel too darn effeminate.

Featured review
Badlands of Dakota
Set in the Dakotas during the days of the Great Gold Boom, the story finds brothers Jim and Bob Holliday (Stack and Broderick Crawford) fighting it out over the affections of pretty Anne Grayson (Ann Rutherford). While all this is going on, Wild Bill Hickok (Richard Dix) does his best to help Jim Holliday neutralise the local criminal element.
"Badlands of Dakota" is an entertaining and engaging western, which mixes the presence of mythical figures from the Wild West, Wild Bill Hickok, Calamity Jane and General Custer, with comico-dramatic situations. It's an atypical western, oscillating between humor, (burlesque comedy) and dramatization - there's a great cast, from Broderick Crawford and the excellent Richard Dix, and the set pieces and the depiction of Deadwood is great. There's a strong sense of colour and drama as well as some fine action with shootouts, chases ( the Stagecoach sequence with the horses gobe was impressive) and an energetic Sioux attack on Deadwood.
