CALAMITY JANE Movie Coloring Contest

November 13, 1953.  Yahoo!!  This is one of my favorite movies!!  CALAMITY JANE starring  the wonderful DORIS DAY and the hunky, hunky HOWARD KEEL.  It also starred Allyn McLerie, Philip Carey, Gale Robbins, Dick Wesson and Paul Harvey.  " Doris is irresistible as the bombastic, rootin'-tootin' title character in this lively musical with Keel as Wild Bill Hickok, who only begins to realize his feelings for her when she makes a stab at becoming more "feminine".  Sammy Fain-Paul Francis Webster score includes the Oscar-winning SECRET LOVE." from Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide.  Doris Day is from the generation
of movie actresses that could do it all - sing, dance, act in comedy or drama.  She is absolutely terrific as Calamity Jane.
