Full of wonderful songs (and you can join in as this is a singalong screening), Calamity Jane is the late Doris Day’s best loved musical. She plays the tomboyish Wild West legend, who rashly promises to lure the female star of Chicago’s music hall to the Deadwood saloon stage, much to the amusement of Wild Bill Hickok (Howard Keel). So dust off your Stetson, climb aboard the Deadwood stage and take yourself back to the Black Hills of Dakota! Screening as part of BFI Musicals! The Greatest Show on Screen, a UK-wide film season supported by National Lottery, BFI Film Audience Network and ICO.
