Overview
Annie Oakley is the best shot around, and she manages to support her
little brother and sisters by selling the game she hunts. When she's
discovered by Col. Buffalo Bill, he persuades this novel sharpshooter to
join his Wild West Show. It only takes one glance for her to fall head
over heels for dashing shooting ace Frank Butler, who headlines the
show. She soon eclipses Butler as the main attraction which, while good
for business, is bad for romance. Butler hightails it off to join a
rival show, his bruised male ego leading the way, but is ultimately
pitted against Annie in a final shoot-out. The rousing, sure-fire finale
hits the mark every time in a testament to the power of female
ingenuity.
