Saloon-bar singer Freddie gets very angry whenever boyfriend Blackie seems to be playing around. She always packs a six-shooter, so this is bad news for anything that happens to be in the way. As this is usually the local judge's rear-end, Freddie and friend Conchita are soon hiding out teaching school in the middle of nowhere.

Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
Preston Sturges plays his script [based on a story by Earl Felton] with frantic slapstick, stressing raw, bawdy comedy rather than genuine humor, to get the laughs.

rotten:
To paraphrase the theme song, it looks pretty well shot in the end.

fresh:
Fast-moving and witty spoof of Western conventions from one of Hollywood's finest writer/directors of comedy.
