May 24 movie: Pillow Talk. I love this movie! Another one of my very favorites. The best of the Rock Husdon/Doris Day films, TCM is showing it as part of their memorial tribute to Tony Randall. There are too many funny things to recount them all, but one of my favorites is the dueling internal monologues Hudson and Day have on their first date:
him: "I'd say five or six dates should do it."
her: "It's so nice to meet a man you feel you can trust!"
However, my favorite line without a doubt is said by Randall: "Jan, how could you? How could you ever fall in love with a tourist?"
[The movie just ended and I have to add that the ending is the only part I don't like. But up until the last two minutes or so, it's utterly fabu.]

i just watched this for the first time. (i can't believe it's taken me this long!) and i LOVED it!! the acting was great, it was appropriately silly, and i thought the script hung together more than other movies of that ear.
pus, tony randall is a gem in this film.
the only thing i didn't really get was why brad kept continued to call jan throughout rex's courtship. was it just to keep up appearances?
