Also love it! An absolute classic

I love Doris Day, reminds me of my nana. Calamity Jane is one of my favourite ever films, another is Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, those guys are fantastic dancers.

HermioneRuby1 · 17/12/2023 22:18

Literally my favourite film & love Doris Day. Classic!

I love it but much of it doesn't stand up to modern ethical scrutiny.

Ugh, really? Who cares, just enjoy the film!

Me!!

Great film and songs

Calamity Jane is 100% a lesbian musical. The male love interests are incredibly dull and only there as a grudging acknowledgement of compulsory heterosexuality.

One of my favourite ever films! Fabulous songs & Doris Day is brilliant in it!

She plays the part to perfection & is a good old fashioned Tom Boy.

I have watched it so many times over my 54 years & my nickname years ago used to be Doris Smile

My children, who are both now in their 20's know all the songs too Grin

It's so not a lesbian movie. 😂

My Dad always wanted to be Howard Keel. 😆

squeekychicken · 18/12/2023 14:24

I love it too! Was one of my favs as a child. I'm 40. I know every line in it.

Love, love this film, she’s a tomboy, great songs, just fabulous. I made my kids watch it too. I don’t even like musicals usually!

maddiemookins16mum · 25/12/2023 15:40

One of my favourite musicals, nobody but Doris could have played that role.

KirstenBlest · 25/12/2023 15:44

Doris Day and Howard Keel. whip crack away whip crack away

I always wished Calamity could have stayed as she was & got together with Katie.

Yes!

Their home was perfect.

Great film and I love Doris Day.

arewedoneyet · 25/12/2023 15:50

One of the dancers in Seven Brides went on to play Dr Jacobi in Twin Peaks, many years later.

Itsuitsyou · 25/12/2023 15:59

@Atre ooh I never knew that. I'll have a look for him!

twiddlingthumbs69 · 25/12/2023 16:30

Me! One of my favourite films ever, such a cool character

Love it... and any Rogers and Hammerstein.
