Rose Marie (1954) is a film adaptation of the 1924 Broadway operetta. The film stars Ann Blyth as Rose Marie Lemaitre, a French-Canadian lass who is 'tamed' by Mike Malone (Howard Keel). At first, Mike is only interested in using Rose Marie to capture her sweetheart, renegade trapper Duval (Fernando Lamas), but eventually he falls in love with her, and she with him. The film features the comic antics of Bert Lahr. The original Rudy Friml score is well in evidence, along with several new Friml compositions and a few extra tunes penned by Georgie Stoll and Herbert Baker. There's also an 'Indian sacrifice' production number spotlighting a young Rita Moreno.
