CGiii Comment
Oklahoma stinks!
Admittedly, there are a few good tunes and it is as camp as spray-painted udders.
But...the choreography is frightening, the story would induce shell-shock ...and, Shirley Jones is a complete, high-maintenance cow.
Oh...and it is 50 minutes too long...and that dream sequence, what a horror.
Trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
In the Oklahoma territory at the turn of the twentieth century, two young cowboys vie with an evil ranch hand and a traveling peddler for the hearts of the women they love.
