They Don't Make Comedies Like This Anymore

Cary Grant and Doris Day are at their comedic best in this howling tail that never gets dull. As usual Ms. Day looks stunning and Cary Grant gives Rock Hudson a lesson in comedic timing. Gig Young is sensational. Audrey Meadows adds just the right touch. Also, add a star if you remember Horn and Hardarts Automat.
