Featured review
There is still reason to applaud the movie's colorful production and irrepressible high spirits
From her first appearance aboard the stagecoach, singing "Deadwood Stage," Doris Day dominates the movie in exuberantpossibly too exuberantfashion, with strong assistance from Howard Keel and his virile voice
Returning home from a visit to Chicago, Day gives her account of the "Windy City" in a song that suggests Oklahoma!'s "Kansas City" in more ways than the title Her quarrelsome duet with Wild Bill"I Can Do Without You"echoes Annie Oakley's competitive duet with Frank Butler in "Annie Get Your Gun."
But one song is all Doris Day'sand the film'svery own: walking through the countryside on a beautiful morning, Calamity realizes that she loves Bill, and in a voice exuding warmth and tender feeling, she sings the Academy Award-winning song "Secret Love."
