Hudson-Day sex farce (that is, in 1964) is fun relic today.

...a desperate attempt to recapture Pillow Talk's charming and effortlessly delightful atmosphere.

Jewison's cockeyed comedy works its romantic magic with the flighty entanglement of the Hudson-Day charming kooky connection

Poor George, who thinks he's dying, tries to find a suitable husband for his wife after he's passed on.

Probably the greatest of the Doris Day-Rock Hudson comedies and when this came out in 1964,this was to be considered the last of great comedies of the 1960's that starred Doris Day and Rock Hudson. Hilarious hijinks ensumes with Tony Randall,Edward Andrews and the great Paul Lynde. Clint Walker also stars.
