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. <I>--Jenny Brown</I>
Viewer Reviews
This 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 top. But all in all, this movie does deliver a smile on your face at the end.
