My Dream Is Yours

Doris Day in her second film role. and the awesome, versatile Jack Carson...rock hudson must have been busy that week. also Adolphe Menjou, S.Z Sakall, and even Franklin Pangborn; we see him in color, for once! he was the comedic sidekick for SO many black and white films, even with W.C. Fields. and the incredible, edible Eve Arden. check out Carson and Arden in Mildred Pierce, probably their best film ever. When the bigshot star won't renew his contract, they hire Martha, a single mom (Day). and then things get complicated. she's good, talented, and successful, but resents the time away from her kid. keep an eye out for Sandra Gould as the girl in the recording room... she was Gladys Kravitz in Bewitched. some fun scenery of hollywood and LA. its mostly fun, but towards the end, all of a sudden, we're all in a warner brothers cartoon; DD and Carson are dressed up in bunny silly outfits, and do a dance with bugs bunny. its pretty out there. and Gene Kelly would do it again in Anchors A-weigh, two years later. keep the other eye out for chester clute... he starts talking to Martha in the club, right near the end. but she's not listening. similar story to a star is born, where the younger singer's career is rising, while the older man's is waning.
