"A Smart-Aleck Travesty
On The West, Told With Considerable Humor and Bright Gags." -Variety
The Wild West has never been wilder - or funnier - than in this classic six-shootin'
farce which introduced the Academy Award® winning song "Buttons and Bows."
In one of his most popular roles, Bob Hope plays "Painless" Peter Potter, a
timid correspondence school dentist earning a shaky living in the lawless West.
When "Painless" is seduced into agreeing to a quickie marriage by the voluptuous
Jane Russell, he thinks his luck has changed. Little does he suspect that
Russell is actually sharpshooter Calamity Jane, hot on the trail of a dangerous
renegade gang and that she is simply using "Painless" as her cover and unwitting
dupe!
This Old West burlesque, brightened by Technicolor® and uproarious slapstick
went on to become one of Bob Hope's best-loved film vehicles and his biggest box
office hit. Saddle up for the wild comic ride!
