  Annie Get Your Gun

Frank Butler is the star of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. Then along comes sharpshooter Annie Oakley. Bill adds her to the show and she is soon the star. Chief Sitting Bull makes her his daughter, but that's still not enough to get the man she wants. After parting ways and going bankrupt, Annie and Frank meet again at a party. Annie is finally a white glove lady.
