Annie Get Your Gun:
Frank Butler, handsome star of Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show, bags clay pigeons and ladies hearts. He’s the best marksman in the world – until a blackwoods hoyden challenges him. Her name? Annie Oakley. Betty Hutton and Howard Keel star in this sharpshootin’ funfest based on the 1,147-performance Broadway smash boasting Irving Berlin’s beloved score, including Doin’ What Comes Natur’lly, 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!
