Equally covered was her sometime combative, sometimes pathetic but perpetually percolating relationship with fellow star shooter Frank Butler (Howard Keel and his booming bass pipes).
Hutton’s brash and boisterous performance, literally eating the camera at points, sells and saves the movie that was plagued with issues, including original director Busby Berkeley being fired, Judy Garland having to step away from the role of Annie due to health issues, and the original Buffalo Bill, Frank Morgan (“The Wizard of Oz”) dying during the production.
As critical to Hutton’s giddy performance was, Berlin’s unending stream of classics such as “Doin’ What Comes Natur’lly,” “The Girl That I Marry,” “Anything You Can Do” and the absolute showstopper “There’s No Business Like Show Business,” making this musical one of the most memorable in the history of the genre.

Lyn Cooperman always dreamed of having her own business. She achieved that when she opened the North Fork Craft Gallery in Wading River four years ago, one of a group of small stores attached to The Inn and Spa at East Wind.
Cooperman’s business recognizes local craftsmen by selling their work. That was always her idea one that came from growing up with an artisan sister and attending many craft fairs.
“The shop is actually a result of 35 years of talking about doing something like this,” Cooperman, 62
, said.
Cooperman’s passion for crafting partly came from experiencing her sister’s creativity and helping her sell at craft shows and wholesale shows. Combining that with her experience in retail resulted in her owning a gallery.
Two local women have achieved a unique distinction in the world of self defence and protection.
Jessica Moreland and Clare Bennett have been studying, practising and training in Krav Maga for five years.
Krav Maga is a self defence system developed by Imi Litchenfield in 1930 in Czechoslovakia, but was adopted by the Israeli Defence Forces.
Now the women, who are also both members of Dovestone WI, have raised their skill-set to the next level, and have become qualified instructors, under the expert teaching and guidance of Global Kapap Chief Instructor, Adrian Valman.
They are now part of the Global Kapap International Network, one of the largest professional self protection organisations used to teach police, military personnel and civilians worldwide.
