Storyline
Deadwood, 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. Written by Rod Crawford <puffinus@u.washington.edu>

Trivia
Doris Day had to lower the sound of her natural voice, in order to sound more gruff to play the rough and ready Calamity. See more »Goofs
After leaving the ball at the fort, we cut to a shot of Calamity's bare back as she is undressing. Once she gets the dress off she is shown wearing undergarments that clearly cover most of her back. See more »Soundtracks

Calamity Jane is a wonderful way to lose yourself. We have three daughters who love this a lot.
Great, great fun all so professionally packaged that you just lose yourself in the moment.
Great tunes, a great looking cast, and sets, and above all an enormous sense that everyone was really enjoying themselves while making this, make Calamity Jane one of the best musicals for escapist entertainment.
Very easy to watch, and nothing that would shock a six year old it is impossible not to be carried away by Doris Day's and Howard Keel's performances.
While it won't change the world, it will make it a brighter place instantly.
Recommended to bring a genuine smile to anyone's face.
