The Ballad of Josie is a 1967 Technicolor American comedy western film directed by Andrew V. McLaglen and starring Doris Day, Peter Graves and George Kennedy. It humorously tackles 1960s themes of feminism in a traditional Western setting. The film featured the last acting role for William Talman. It was filmed on two locations in Thousand Oaks, California: North Ranch and Wildwood Regional Park. Josie (Doris Day) is a young woman living in (fictional) Arapahoe County, Wyoming. She accidentally kills her abusive alcoholic husband when she opens the bedroom door and knocks him backward down the stairs. She is put on trial for his death, but is acquitted. Josie is convinced by her father-in-law, (Paul Fix) to send her young son, Luther to Cheyenne to live with him while she tries to build a life as a rancher. Josie then incurs the annoyance of her male neighbors by farming sheep instead of cattle and setting up a women's suffrage movement.
