To: a fool in paradise

I miss the comedic talents of Doris Day, Meg Ryan, Debbie Reynolds, Jim Garner, Cary Grant, Katherine Hepburn, etc.

IMHO, Doris’s funniest film was The Glass Bottom Boat. Rod Taylor was her romantic interest, but the film had lots of talent in it: Dom Deluise, Paul Lynde, Dick Martin, Arthur Godfrey, etc. One laugh after another. It is a bit dated as it converns top government secrets during the early sputnik days.

I tried watching the Glass Bottom Boat because of the 60s spy thing. I didn’t make it through it.

I liked Frank Tashlin’s Girl Can’t Help It much better (of course that had a great soundtrack to boost it).

Both films had the same director.
