favourite films

[Theodomus]

I just watched Calamity Jane again and it is definitely one of if not THE favourite.

From the other ones I have seen so far

Pillow Talk
The Thrill of it All
and Love me or Leave me

are way up the list. LMOLM mainly because of the wonderful music.

[sunnyDAY]

My favorite has to be "Love Me or Leave Me." Doris' acting is amazing. And I love the music and dance!


Then: Calamity Jane
Romance on the High Seas
Young at Heart

[Debbi Austen]

Good choices SunnyDay!

[ddfan55]

My favourite film has to be The Glass Bottom Boat

Then The Pyjama Game
Calamity Jane
and Pillow Talk

My favorites are
1) Pillow Talk
2) Teacher's Pet
3) The Man who knew too Much
4) I'll See you in my Dreams
5) Love me or Leave me

It's hard to choose I love her movies! The only one's I'm not crazy for
are Lover Come Back, Move over Darling, and Young at Heart.

I love most of her movies. "Julie" really wasn't that well made, but with Doris Day in it, it was enjoyable to watch. However, I would rank a good movie by the ability to start watching it anywhere during the movie. My kids love the comedy movies, so I'll rank them according to their preference:

1. Lover Come Back
2. Move Over Darling
3. Pillow Talk
4. Young At Heart
5. The Man Who Knew Too Much

Yahoo...My favorite #1 Lover Come Back. Like your choices.
I do like The Thrill of It All and Move Over, Darling probably in your 4th and 5th picks.

I meant to put Move Over Darling at #2 so I changed it.

[BabeWilliams]

My favorites change all the time.. Here's my current top 5

1) The Pajama Game
2) Move Over Darling
3) I'll See You In My Dreams
4) Lullaby Of Broadway
5) This one's a tie between Calamity Jane and Love Me Or Leave Me

[Haymarketaddict]

After last week (and my Doris marathon) I *definitely* need to change my favourite list

1. Glass Bottom Boat (still and forever will be I think)
2. With 6 you get eggrole
3. Send me no flowers
4. It happened to Jane
5. Move over Darling
6. Lover come back

it's likely to be changed again though

OKAY I definitely and officially need to add "Please don't eat the daisies" and "I'll see you in my dreams" to my list - the first one I forgot earlier *shame on me* and the second I've watched not to long ago for the first time and just LOVED it

Anke -- LOVE the avatar!

My favorites (also change from time to time but the following films always seem to be in the top5):
Pillow Talk, Billy Rose's Jumbo, The glass bottom boat.

[mikeydv]

Never thought about ranking her movies in order, but here goes..It is difficult to do because I like so many of them equally, and for different time periods. But..taken as a body of work:

1. LOVE ME OR LEAVE ME....definitely her BEST film (best acting/ best singing/ best looking, etc)
2. ROMANCE ON THE HIGH SEAS....her first, got me hooked right at the start
3. MY DREAM IS YOURS......her second, kept me right in her ball park. LOVED LOVED THIS MOVIE.
Then it gets iffy. GREAT FEELING was silly.
4. TEA FOR TWO (and all the others which featured DoDo and Mr. MacRae........good old fashioned family comedy musical and her beginning with Gordon MacRae...and she was with him in more films than any other costar.)
5. PILLOW TALK/LOVER COME BACK...the ones with Rock but NOT FLOWERS.
5. TIED. PAJAMA GAME....her only Broadway Musical on film (not counting JUMBO). And there should have been many, many more: SOUND OF MUSIC UNSINKABLE SOUTH PACIFIC GUYS & DOLLS ...etc, etc starring Doris

[Haymarketaddict]

hmm.... I probably shouldn't rank the movies either ....
except for THE GLASS BOTTOM BOAT which is and always will be my favorite and No.1 - no matter how many movies I haven't seen yet The rest of them are just runner ups and really depend on my mood which one I like best that day

Anke

[Daisy June]

From the other ones I have seen so far

Pillow Talk
The Thrill of it All
and Love me or Leave me

are way up the list. LMOLM mainly because of the wonderful music.

I'll have to edit my list... Current standing:

Calamity Jane
Pillow Talk / I'll see you in my Dreams
The Thrill of it All
Love Me Or Leave Me

[rt]

My list is nearly the same as Marion's except - I would replace TTOIA with "My dream is yours"
Rum

[Theodomus]

Don't know that one yet, Rum.

[rt]

Another reason you gotta visit.

[pillowtalk]

1. Pillow Talk
2. Move Over Darling
3. Lover Come Back

Those are my top three, but lately I've been really into Teacher's Pet, Calamity Jane, The Thrill of It All, and April in Paris. The ones I watch most often change from day to day though, haha. It depends on what I feel like watching. I love them all, the rest of the movies come really close to these three.
