Decades before She's All That made Laney beautiful by taking off her glasses, Calamity Jane took off her hat and men began to fall at her feet!
Catchy tunes that sort of reminded me of Wizard of Oz, and a pretty fun and straight forward story. All the makings of a comfort watch!

A buoyant musical Western that celebrates frontier spirit with infectious energy and humor. It's a feel-good romp where a tomboy sharpshooter learns what matters most through rivalry, jealousy, and unexpected affection.
