Inspired by a novel by best-selling Western author Louis L'Amour, Heller In Pink Tights brings the curtain up on the traveling Healy Dramatic Company, a barnstorming 1880s theatrical troupe that spends part of its time emoting on stage – and most of its time fending off confrontational townfolk, irate creditors and suspicious sheriffs. Desperate to find a more flamboyant act to keep their audiences entertained, the ensemble's leaders, Angela Rossini (Sophia Loren) and Tom Healy (Anthony Quinn), put the "Wild" in Wild West with their comic misadventures. Directed by legendary Hollywood filmmaker George Cukor (The Philadelphia Story, A Star Is Born ), this rollicking Western spoof also boasts a stellar supporting cast that includes Steve Forrest, Eileen Heckart, Edmund Lowe, Margaret O'Brien and Ramon Novarro.
