The Lady from Cheyenne

I didn't expect Hollywood to produce a feminist movie in 1941. Nor did I realize what a superb actress Loretta Young was. She is delightful as the feisty, bustling heroine. The movie would be flat without her. How sad that this enchanting actress was assigned only a handful of A movies by the studios during a 30-year career. No wonder she left movies for television. Don't miss this and don't. Miss The Farmer's Daughter or Alexander Graham Bell.

Did you know that Wyoming actually was the first government entity in the world to give women the vote in 1869? Check it out on Wikipedia. Granted, the movie was only inspired by these events and its ending is a bit of a copout. But how often you see movies about subjects that really matter. Also, in 1941, who gives our heroinne invaluable advice that helps her win? A humble black waiter. Don't miss it on You Tube.
