Goofs
In the beginning, Calamity, is crying by Wild Bill Hickok's grave. When she walks away, her horse follows, and bumps the headstone. It sways back and forth quite a bit.

Quotes
Matt Baker: Miss Mullen hired a lawyer.
Colorado Charley: A lawyer?
Calamity Jane: I'll shoot it out with him, too!
Matt Baker: You can't do that, Calam! Law and order is comin' to the Gulch. Why, in a week or so, we'll have a real United States judge here. Ask Sheriff Atwood if you don't believe me.
Colorado Charley: Great jumpin' horny toads! What's this town comin' to anyway? Soon be where a man can't settle an argument in his own way!

It's so bad that it's almost good!

Yep, it is so bad that it is almost good. The acting, other than Ankers and Ellison and Ingram , is pathetic. Lee "Lasses" White almost drove me to drink. This movie has virtually no credibility and no saving graces, except that the Trucolor photography is excellent...as excellent, that is, as two-color photography will allow. Struss does an excellent job in the color photography department which is the real reason I stayed with the film. The Trucolor photography has an unreal look to it...almost like a pastel painting. I only wish Gene Autry had made at least one Trucolor film in addition to his two Cinecolor films. All in all, watch it late at night with a bottle of Jack Daniels and relax....after all, it's only a movie!
