The real life story was way more amazing! The real life Frank knew how strong and amazing Annie was and knew she was the better shot. Annie's death made Frank heartbroken and he died only a few days later. 💛😍😍 Wish they had stuck to that version.
Betty Hutton was the best Annie Oakley ever! I own this MGM classic movie on videotape, Laser Disc, DVD and Blue Ray. I was born in 1978. Thank you for posting and sharing this movie magic! I love it! This is pure fun and entertainment!
huh! I only saw this version after seeing the production in san diego back in 2013ish. Didn't realize the ending was this way. I guess the people down in sd rewrote the script so that frank noticed annie was losing on purpose and they were matched even in the end. interesting...
Cute musical, but definitely a product of the times. "Women are supposed to be submissive, men's pride matters the most, etc". Not really relevant now but... hey, we can't pretend people didn't USED to think that way. It's an interesting snapshot of time.
She got the man. She warned the man. Third wave feminism has destroyed women's critical thinking, even in it's cultural or media revisionist history contexts. Her losing on purpose is NOT a sell out. She got love. Sigh.
First off you are reading far into something quite innocuous and judging something through a very narrow lens skewed by feminist opinions. Not hardly fair or credible in any sense for useful analysis. Quite rudimentary and naive in fact. The fundamental question is, is it better to be right or to be loved? And I’m sure anyone in a long, successful relationship can understand that sentiment. You however have cats. Lots and lots of cats. And pink hair. Good job.
I like the theme being sung with the whole roadshow riding on horses...but they should have had some more women in with the men singing the chorus. It sounds bad with like 5000 baritones singing the song; it should have been a full chorus; SATB; singing the song. The movie "There's No Business Like Show Business" stages this number MUCH better than this.

Beautiful true romance
In the play, Buffalo Bill says it’s his own version
It's true what you say, but for the purpose of the show they had to take dramatic license and create some conflict.
Betty Hutton was an absolute giant of musical theater and film. It is so sad to see bad luck in her later years.
Tsk tsk, well at least one day Annie can throw it back in his face THAT SHE LET HIM WIN😏🤣

Finally somebody who understands that, thank you!!!

@thelasttaarakian Insane to comment this years later 😭
That Betty Hutton was awesome.
Feministicly this is bull. Good thing this was so long ago or I would have been angry. But now I can simply enjoy her sneekineas
Brilliant life lesson for women then and now.
Why do people have to be upset about everything? Just enjoy it.
Go check out the musical. It's on YT somewhere. It has WAY cooler ending.
@@banana-1328 yeah why not enjoy your taxes!
Sometimes I wish the assistant Mac would have more to do in this compared to his stage counterpart
What the fuck kind of ending is this?
That’s what I was thinking.
I liked the character Annie but I really didn’t like the Frank character.
The real version of Frank was much better
Newsweek sent me here XD
Did you call he hunni? Awwww.

Better to get a man than win the match. Awesome life lesson for ALL women,
loulou nunja Better learn how to spell, comma.
Ahahahahahhhhaaaaahaaahaa!
So says a useless man.
I would rather win
Nope. Winning is always worth it. Also, learn how to punctuate.
