Editorial Review: Amazon.com essential video: Jan Morrow (Doris Day) and Brad Allen (Rock Hudson) have never met, but they're sworn enemies because of one small appliance in their lives: the telephone. The two share a party line, and Jan is outraged over the amount of time Bill spends wooing women over the phone. A convenient triangle emerges when a client (Tony Randall) of Jan's--she's an interior decorator--falls in love with her and happens to be Brad's old college chum. When Brad makes the connection, he decides to try to court Jan himself, to make her more sympathetic to his phone woes. Of course, she'd never go for such a heel, so he passes himself off as Rex Stetson, a Texas rancher visiting New York. The ensuing tale, albeit predictable, is lots of fun, with some quick-witted dialogue and some clever use of split-screens for the phone calls. Thelma Ritter is hilarious as Jan's always-hung-over maid, Alma; and the pairing of Rock and Doris works beautifully, as always. --Jenny Brown Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Good FilmThis is an adorable romantic comedy starring the ever classy Doris Day and handsome Rock Hudson. I don't quite understand the concept these two people sharing a party-line-but maybe that's just a generation thing. Randall is also funny, his character reminds me of a pre- Woody Allen and Richard Lewis shtick. And Thelma Ritter was just hilarious. I did think Forbe's love for Jan ended abruptly and the doctor who really thought there was the possibility of a pregnant man roaming around-a bit over the ... Read More Rating:  - Pillow TalkThis is probably the most well known pairing of Doris Day and Rock Hudson. A laugh out loud comedy in which Tony Randall and Thelma Ritter also showcase their vast comedic talent. Jan Morrow shares a party line with Brad Allen, which she has tried to put a stop to, but the phone company won't cooperate. She uses it for her work as an interior decorator, while he uses it to seduce a multitude of women thru his song writing. When they meet by accident, he assumes another identity to get close to Jan ... Read More Rating: - Dynamic DuoTo me, this is the best of the Doris Day/Rock Hudson movies. It's well written, funny and features some fine acting (Thelma Ritter and Tony Randall are a hoot). If you love the comedies of the '50's and early '60's, it's hard to beat this one. Rating: - Adore this movie!As a romance writer I find this movie a fantastic example of how witty dialogue should be written, how to keep the pace racing along, how to show the characters' attraction, and how to write a plot that works, despite it being full of coincidences and contrivances.And I just adore all the actors and the parts they play. Fabulous! The Millionaire's Seductive Revenge (Silhouette Desire) Rating: - Classic MovieI like very much the classic movies from the 1930s, 40s, and 50s. This one was copied to DVD with great sound and picture clarity. If you like Doris Day and Rock Hudson, you will like this movie. Browse for similar items by category:
