From Amazon.com: The American folksong makes it clear that Clementine is lost and gone forever, but how, and why? This Shelley Duvall production gives the titular gal a face (Duvall herself), a gold-struck miner of a father (Ed Asner), and several suitors to explain her story. The lone woman in a California mining camp, Clementine whips up baked beans for her father and the boys, and entertains them with her outrageous costumes and sunny innocence. A bespectacled nomad (David Dukes) joins the camp and falls for her, but Dad tries to broker marriage with a couple of scary but successful gold miners instead. The resulting tragedy is not belabored, and is handled in a good-natured way that will not disturb most children. Randy Newman narrates and sings the famous song, and a pre-Seinfeld Michael Richards makes a Kramer-free appearance as Sneaky Pete in this amiable 46-minute video.
