WESTWARD HOS

 One of the most iconic acts of frontier femme empowerment in my book is an early scene in THE PALEFACE. Some owlhoot assassins attempt to bushwack Jane Russell's Calamity Jane in a women's bathhouse. She decoys them by letting them find her garments and then appears behind them in her petticoats and gunbelt, shooting all of the killers to death without mercy.                                                                                              

SON OF PALEFACE isn't nearly as good but they did some posed shots of Russell treating Bob Hope to some frontier B&D.
