STARRING: Sophia Loren, Anthony Quinn, and Margaret O'Brien
DIRECTED BY: George Cukor
They'd rather draw a crowd than a six-gun!
Based on a Louis L'Amour novel, Heller in Pink Tights struts onto the screen with a sass and shimmy that shows how the West was fun! Sophia Loren and Anthony Quinn play members of the Healy Dramatic Co., an itinerant theatrical troupe struggling to stay one step ahead of the bill collector as it travels from mining camps to cowtowns. Come sleet, snow, or hail of bullets, the Healy show must go on! And go on it does in this witty, colorful romp directed by George Cukor (My Fair Lady) and scripted by Dudley Nichols (Bringing up Baby) and Walter Bernstein (Semi-Tough).
