Summary
A spirited cast kicks up its heels in a lively musical spoof of cowboy films crammed with spur-jangling tunes by Jay Livingstone and Ray Evans and decked out with colorfully stylized, Oscar.-nominated sets. Rosemary Clooney heads up the high-kicking, red-gartered girls of the Red Dog Saloon. They can-can. but she won't-won't unless Jason (Jack Carson) asks her to get hitched. Guy Mitchell and Gene Barry are gun-totin' polecats who think they've got a feud to settle. And Frank Faylen and Buddy Ebsen are among the folks who hope the gunslingers get itchy fingered - so they can hold a town barbecue during the funeral!

_**Fun, stagey Western operetta/spoof**_
In 1872, a jovial-but-formidable stranger (Guy Mitchell) rides into Limbo County, California, on an unknown mission where he engages in contention, friendship, romance and… potentially deadly gunfights. The cast includes the likes of Rosemary Clooney, Jack Carson, Gene Barry and Frank Faylen.
“Red Garters” (1954) is a colorful set-bound Western parody/musical. It’s like "The Wizard of Oz” in the cinematic Old West, but without the fantastical elements and a focus on romance and quick-draw silliness, etc.
With a name like “Red Garters” you know one of the highlights is the women. Other than perky Rosemary Clooney (George Clooney’s aunt), there’s Pat Crowley (Susan), Joanne Gilbert (Sheila) and the several beautiful showgirls who perform inside and outside the saloon.
The movie runs 1 hour, 31 minutes, and was shot at Paramount Studios, Hollywood.
