Doris Day, like Judy Garland, truly was a triple threat film star. She could sing, she could dance and she could act. If you get TCM (cable's Turner Classic Movies), Doris Day has been the Star of the Month. This coming Monday (March 22nd), starting at 8p Eastern, you can enjoy a few of her movies. The first one up is PILLOW TALK, the 1959 romantic comedy that got her an Oscar nomination for Best Actress. Her excellent leading man is Rock Hudson.
Doris was a master at screen comedy. PILLOW TALK is worth watching when you consider that Doris never took acting lessons. She had a natural talent, an actor's instinct, that awed such male co-stars as James Cagney, James Garner and Tony Randall. Cagney praised her impressive natural talents in his autobiography. I mentioned Judy Garland, a Doris Day buddy. Doris was rather like Judy Garland's Esther Blodgett character in the 1954 remake of A STAR IS BORN. Doris, like Esther who was renamed Vicki Lester, was a singer with a band. She was discovered by Hollywood figures who took a chance on the newcomer and cast her in a musical when the intended star turned out to be unavailable. Esther (Doris) makes her movie debut. She's a hit and, within five years, is one of the biggest stars at the studio. Doris Day replaced Betty Hutton in Warner Bros. 1948 release, ROMANCE ON THE HIGH SEAS. She introduced the song "It's Magic" which became a hit record and one of her signature tunes. It was an Oscar nominee for Best Song.
In the 1955 movie, LOVE ME OR LEAVE ME, Doris flipped the script on her sunny, ambitious All-American Girl image and played the dark side of it. As real-life singer Ruth Etting, she becomes a hit with the help of her hoodlum/manager husband played by James Cagney. This film brought Cagney a Best Actor Oscar nomination. It should've brought Doris her first Best Actress Oscar nomination.
One of my favorite Doris Day films during her Warner Bros. years is 1954's drama with music, YOUNG AT HEART. Doris stars opposite Frank Sinatra who plays a hard luck singer/songwriter. His luck will change as he falls in love with Doris' character. Here, you have two former band singers who became movie stars and eventually got Oscar nominations. I love this closing number Doris Day and Frank Sinatra have in YOUNG AT HEART.
Besides being a top ten box office star, Doris Day also had hit records. Two of her hit records were tunes she sang to Best Song Oscar wins -- "Secret Love" from CALAMITY JANE and "Que Sara. Sara" (Whatever Will Be, Will Be)" from THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH. I totally dig the jazz album she cut with Andre Previn. Here's a taste.

ReplyDeleteIts a great pleasure for me to write this testimony about how i got my Genital Herpes cured a month ago. i have been reading so many comments of some people who were cured from various diseases by Dr Aza but i never believed them. I was hurt and depressed so I was too curious and wanted to try DR. Aza then i contacted him through his email, he assured me 100% that he will heal me, i pleaded with him to help me out. My experience with him was great, he healed me just as he promised. he sent me his medication and ask me to go for a medical check up after two weeks of usage. i agreed with him i took this medication and went for a check up, to my greatest surprise my result was negative, i am really happy that i am cured and healthy again. I have waited for 3weeks to be very sure i was completely healed before writing this testimony. I did another blood test one week ago and it was still Herpes negative. so i guess its time i recommend anyone going through the same way. reach him through his email address: drazaherbalcenter@gmail.com OR call, add him on Whatsapp +1(315) 795 1518 you can also visite his website at;www.drazaherbalcenter.com
