What's the matter?

It's going to take me

two weeks to get my trousseau.

Your what?

Wedding clothes to you.

You know, I'm a girl

that likes nice things.

Two weeks is

a long time to wait.

Well, I'll see what

I can do about it.

Set 'em up.

The drinks are on me.

We're celebrating, folks.

Two weeks from today,

Cleo and me are

going to be married.

(Cheering)

Speech! Speech! Speech!

Speech! Speech! Speech!

Well, I'm a woman

of very few words

but lots of action.

(Cheering)

Well, hello, Sheriff.

just in time to join us

in a little drink.

I don't drink

with a cattle rustler.

Oh, I thought cattle rustling

was stopped in these here parts.

That's what a lot

of people think,

but it ain't

never stopped...

with fellas like

Buck Gonzales around.

(Laughing)

That's right. Laugh.

Laugh while you can.

But someday I'm going to

get you and get you right.

Oh, Buck ain't got nothing

bad on his mind but me.

Excuse me a minute, baby.

I want to talk to the sheriff.

Where you going,

Cleo?

Be right back, boys.

Say, I hear you're going

to marry Buck Gonzales.

How'd you ever get him?

I just won him

in a crap game.

(Mooing)

The sheriff!

Open the gate and

stampede these steers.

I came here from the east

four years ago.

I don't know anything

Mae West

Mary Jane "Mae" West (August 17, 1893 – November 22, 1980) was an American actress, singer, playwright, screenwriter, comedian, and sex symbol whose entertainment career spanned seven decades, known for her lighthearted bawdy double entendres and breezy sexual independence. West was active in vaudeville and on the stage in New York City before moving to Hollywood to become a comedian, actress and writer in the motion picture industry, as well as appearing on radio and television. The American Film Institute named her 15th among the greatest female stars of classic American cinema. Often using a husky contralto voice, West was one of the more controversial movie stars of her day and encountered many problems, especially censorship. She bucked the system, making comedy out of conventional mores, and the Depression-era audience admired her for it. When her cinematic career ended, she wrote books and plays and continued to perform in Las Vegas, in the United Kingdom, on radio and television and to record rock and roll albums. She was once asked about the various efforts to impede her career, to which she replied: "I believe in censorship. I made a fortune out of it." more…
