Directed by Michael Gordon • 1959 • United States
Starring Rock Hudson, Doris Day, Tony Randall
The smash-hit sensation that made Doris Day and Rock Hudson one of he most beloved screen couples of their era, this irresistible romantic comedy set a new standard for late-1950s sexual sophistication and garnered five Oscar nominations (including a win for Best Screenplay). Playboy composer Brad Allen (Hudson) and interior decorator Jan Morrow (Day) are obliged to share a telephone line. Naturally, their calls overlap at the least opportune times, and just as naturally, this leads to them despising each other without ever having met in person. The resulting romantic high jinks enchanted contemporary audiences thanks to the risqué innuendo and breezy chemistry between Day and Hudson.
