 Cat Ballou 6302276578 (DVDs)
Although "Cat Ballou" is usually categorized as a Western Comedy, this film actually resembles a musical; in fact, the songs chanted by balladeers Nat King Cole and Stubby Kaye are at the heart of "Cat Ballou."
The script itself is fairly light-weigh but coherent; it concerns would-be schoolmarm Catharine Ballou (played charmingly by Jane Fonda) revenging her father's murder at the hands of land-grabbing outlaws in 1890's Wyoming.
But a fine excess may be considered part and parcel of "Cat Ballou." In any event, this film remains a rarity: 40 years after its release it remains consistently watchable, even lovable-- while many more ambitious/pretentious films have ridden off into the sunset.

 The DVD Journal | Quick Reviews: Cat Ballou: Special Edition   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
Instead of Saddles' bean-eating cowboys and horse-punching bad guys, in Cat Ballou we get a vengeance-driven schoolmarm-turned-outlaw; a washed-up, alcohol-saturated gunslinger; a pretty boy cattle-rustler on the lam; and a most unusual Greek chorus.
Cat happily stands in for Robin Hood as they steal from the rich, corrupting Sir Harry Percival (Reginald Denny) in an attempt to bring down the corporation that's responsible for her father's death.
For one thing, all of Cat's heroes — a gaggle of former train robbers and outlaws who are living out their golden years at the infamous Hole-in-the-Wall hideout — would rather make a deal with Sir Harry than fight with Cat.

 Funny cat names
We felt like since our cats all had Siamese in them, they needed oriental names...the only problem is that due to the way oriental society is constructed...there aren't a whole lot of famous Oriental women.
Having had indoor cats before, and being tired of vacuuming cat hair way too often, I determined that THIS cat was going to be an outdoor cat.
Friends and family suggested that it was cruel to name a cat after excretement, so I named her Shamoo, given her girth and mood/physical resemblence to a killer whale.

 Cat Ballou (1965)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
The tune was published as a kindergarten song "Good Morning To All" in 1893 (the movie takes place in 1894), but it's doubtful the song would have spread to the wild West within a year; but, more importantly, the "Happy Birthday to You" lyrics didn't appear until 1924.
Under the comedy was the message concerning the sheep-like behavior of 'respectable, middle-class people', the wicked townfolk, bankrolled by the Wolf Company (love these names).
Katherine Ballou, the respectable lovely schoolmistress, goes bad as the 'nice' people show themselves to be worse than the outlaws.
