The Girl of the Golden West

Musicals • NR • Directed by: Robert Z. Leonard • 121 minutes

Saddling up for this song-filled sagebrusher are Jeanette MacDonald as Mary and Nelson Eddy as Ramerez, her gold-hearted desperado. But Sheriff Rance (Walter Pidgeon of Mrs. Miniver) turns the twosome into a triangle. He's got an eye for Mary and nothing would please him more than to hold a hanging for Ramerez. To its top-rate stars and songs, The Girl of the Golden West adds a buckboard of delights. Among them are Leo Carrillo as Eddy's sidekick and Buddy Ebsen (TV's The Beverly Hillbillies) singing "The West Ain't Wild Anymore." Maybe it ain't so wild anymore, but with MacDonald and Eddy it's a lot of fun!
