sharpshootin' funfest based on the 1,147-performance Broadway smash boasting Irving Berlin's beloved score, including Doin' What Comes Naturally, I Got the Sun in the Morning and the anthemic There's No Business Like Show Business. As produced by Arthur Freed, directed by George Sidney and seen and heard in a new digital transfer from restored elements, this lavish, spirited production showcases songs and performances with bull's-eye precision, earning an Oscar for adaptation scoring. The story is a brawling boy-meets-girl-meets-buckshot rivalry. But love finally triumphs when Annie proves that, yes, you can get a man with a gun!
Advantages: Family Golden Oldie Disadvantages: not for everyones taste
buck and pursuades Annie to enter,where she gives Butler a lesson in shooting skills.
Buffalo Bill pursueds Annie to join the show, but this then leaves her in direct conflict with Butler, who she becomes smitten on, the two become so hell bent on beating each other, they miss out on what really matters the fact that they have fallen in love.They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder, and after Butler leaves for a rival company and Annie goes on a European tour, this soon becomes obvious to the pair.
Can Annieget her man as well as her gun? you bet ya'.

A musical for me should have a strong story and songs that have you singing along for days. It should also have a cast of strong performances and characters that you love from the start.

AnnieGetYourGun is in short a boy-meets-girl story but the musical score and acting performances as well as the extremely well written script make it so much more than this. Annie Oakley (Betty Hutton) has spent her life "Doin' what comes naturally" that invariably means being your average country girl with a gun slung over her arm and a trail of brothers and sisters ...
Advantages: Make you feel warm inside Disadvantages: You realise you know all the show tunes
I always class this type of movie as the "Sickie". The kind of film yourmum puts on and makes you watch, while your laid up ill on the seatee. But in truth, through all the complaints of, "Do I really have to watch this, It's rubbish!". You know you enjoy it and it makes you feel warm inside. It's not long before your singing along to the show tunes.
Based on the true story of Annie Oakley, Frank Butler, Colonel Buffaol Bill and Chief Sitting Bull. AnnieGetYourGun, boasts a fantastic Oscar winning score, featuring songs you probably didn't even know were in this film.
