Doris Day She Was Born


Happy Birthday, Doris Day! 84 years young.

My favorite Doris Day movie is probably The Man Who Knew Too Much, where she saves the day by introducing "Que Sera, Sera" into the world. I also love Lullaby Of Broadway, and just about everything else she's in.

Amber's favorite Doris Day is Touch Of Mink, where she plays a 40 year old virgin (decades before Steve Carrell thought of it!) who falls for lothario Cary Grant, and has a panic attack when he suggests they Do It pre-nuptually.

We both like one of DD's last movies, With Six You Get Eggroll, featuring a young Barbara Hershey and the always wonderful Alice Ghostley, who later played dear old Bernice on Tyler's favorite show, Designing Women.

Doris Day's favorite thing, according to this commercial, is Blue Band Margareen.

My favorite part of WITH SIX YOU GET EGGROLL is when Doris gets ready for her date by putting her wig in the oven. I have been tempted to start wearing a wig just so I could do that, too.
