Story Louis L'Amour
A theatrical troupe in the 1880s tries to find a more flamboyant act to keep audiences entertained. Sophia Loren stars.

This quirky Sophia Loren Western based on a Louis L'Amour story was one of George Cukor's last films. Loren and Anthony Quinn head a traveling group of actors and musicians in the old West circa 1880, staying barely one step ahead of bill collectors, bandits, angry natives, and the law, in this comedic, satirical film based on a real-life theatrical equestrian performer Adah Isaacs Menken.

The only Western director George Cukor ever made, HELLER IN PINK TIGHTS is a comedy about show business with satirical commentary on the Western genre. The film, based on a novel by Louis L'Amour and full of witty exchanges and a striking visual style, concerns a vaudeville troupe that stays one step ahead of the bill collector as it tours the frontier circa 1880. The central premise finds ringleaders Angela Rossini (Sophia Loren) and Tom Healy (Anthony Quinn) needing a more flamboyant act than normal in order to entertain the citizens of the wild West. The film and the novel are based upon the unconventional theatrical career of Adah Isaacs Menken, whose perennial equestrian role became legendary in the 19th century. HELLER IN PINK TIGHTS was Walter Bernstein's first script since he was blacklisted in the 1950s, and his efforts, together with a fine score and impressive cinematography, helped Cukor capture a legendary era.

Filmed in Arizona. The character of Rossini was inspired by real-life actress Adah Isaacs Menken.
