Movie Info

Expert markswoman Annie Oakley (Barbara Stanwyck) leaves her backwoods home to challenge New York's vaudeville sharpshooter, Toby Walker (Preston Foster). Toby is skeptical of Annie's skill, but although she purposely loses their contest, the business partner of Buffalo Bill Cody (Moroni Olsen) realizes her potential. Cody builds an act for his Wild West show around Annie and Toby's rivalry, but it is threatened by their acquaintance with native Chief Sitting Bull, and a challenge for Toby.

Critic Reviews for Annie Oakley

All Critics (4) | Fresh (3) | Rotten (1)

Barbara Stanwyck is nice, but it's the nostalgic, forthright romantic, and really American tone of the production that makes it outstanding.

Meyer Levin (Patterson Murphy)
Esquire Magazine
[Annie Oakley] is played by Barbara Stanwyck and is a much beautified Annie, with eyelashes so thick you would think they might interfere with her sighting.

Audience Reviews for Annie Oakley

Sep 01, 2019

Family friendly spin about a downhome gal who makes good in show business, with a touch of A Star Is Born thrown in as dramatic pepper. A great deal of Buffalo Bill's rodeo centers the romance.

this is a lot of fun if not exactly historically accurate or politically correct. authentic reproduction of buffalo bill's wild west show doesn't hurt any

Fiction about Annie Oakley is given some substance by Barbara Stanwyck who seems to be enjoying herself. If you're looking for her real story though go elsewhere.
