Ugh, I know. Makes all westerns difficult to watch.

I have to say, I found the flagrant racism rather more disturbing than the sexism. Kinda ruined it on a revisit, alas.

I’ve never seen it or even heard of it but it looks sweet, I might seek it out next time I’m on a 90s nostalgia bender

Absolutely – I think their relationship is actually quite romantic, which I can’t say about most musical pairings!

I always think of Love and Other Catastrophes when I hear the name, in which the main character is writing her thesis on Doris Day.

I’ve also never ever been able to see it without my slash goggles.
