Description
The first of the Doris Day-Rock Hudson-Tony Randall romps, Pillow Talk redefined the romantic comedy, and ushered in an era of sophisticated "battle-of-the-sexes" box-office hits that flourished throughout the '60s. The Day/Hudson chemistry so enchanted audiences that they re-teamed twice more (with Randall also along for the ride)—in Lover Come Back and Send Me No Flowers—and are still considered one of the greatest pairings in screen history.
Day received her only Best Actress Oscar® nomination as a career-driven interior designer who has the misfortune to share a telephone party line with a womanizing playboy (Hudson, in a role he practically patented). Comic complications ensue when Hudson adopts a fake persona to romance the unsuspecting Day...who is also being pursued by Randall, as one of her clients...who, in turn, is receiving romantic tips from his more experienced friend...Hudson! Watching—and wisecracking—from the sidelines is the peerless Thelma Ritter, who received the fifth of her six Best Supporting Actress Oscar® nominations as Day's perpetually hungover housekeeper.
With an Oscar®-winning story and screenplay, Pillow Talk was considered somewhat racy at the time of its release, becoming a blockbuster hit, while Day and Hudson were named the #1 box-office stars of the year.
