Plots(1)
Bob Hope plays "Painless" Peter Potter, a timid correspondence school dentist earning a shaky living in the lawless West. When "Painless" is seduced into agreeing to a quickie marriage by the voluptuous Jane Russell, he thinks his luck has changed. Little does he suspect that Russell is actually sharpshooter Calamity Jane, hot on the trail of a dangerous renegade gang and that she is simply using "Painless" as her cover and unwitting dupe! (official distributor synopsis)

I didn't believe that a western comedy would actually be funny, but I have to admit that I underestimated Bob Hope. He had an incredible knack for entertainment, and even though he occasionally missed with a joke or was awkward, in other moments he could absolutely floor you. Moreover, he is supported by the beautiful Jane Russell, who is certainly more than a worthy co-star.
