Two movie Legends: Doris Day and Rock Hudson.

The year was 1959 when playboy, Rock Hudson and girl next door Doris Day, were first paired for their trilogy of movies: Pillow Talk(1959), Lover Come Back(1961) and Send me No Flowers(1964). This collection of films are simple and funny. Perfect comedies with great performances by Hudson and Day. I really enjoy watching them on a summer afternoon with a cup of tea.

Pillow Talk(1959). The film is about Jan Morrow a interior decorator. She lives alone and claims to be quite happy, when questioned by her drunken housekeeper, Alma. Jan shares a party line, with Brad Allen a Broadway composer and playboy.

Jan and Brad, have never met, fight over the use of the party line, as Brad is constantly using the phone to sing to his collection of girlfriends a love song supposedly written just for them.

One of Jan's clients is millionaire Jonathan Forbes, who is madly in love with Jan. Unknown to Jan, Jonathan is Brad's old college buddy and Broadway benefactor.

One evening in a nightclub, Brad finally sees Jan dancing. Attracted to her, he fakes a Texan accent and invents a new persona: Rex Stetson, wealthy rancher from Texas. He sweeps Jan off her feet, and they begin seeing each other. Jan cannot stop talking about her new found love on the phone to Brad Allen, while Brad teases Jan by suggesting that "Rex" is not all he appears to be. Will Jan ever find out who Tex really is?
