Summary: An old favorite
Comment: I have this movie recorded off the television (when I was in 8th or 9th grade. I'm 25 now) on an old vhs tape, and it's one of my favorite movies. In fact, I've never not liked a Doris Day movie that I've seen (I haven't watched them all). Eventually I'd like to buy this movie (and most likely some of her other movies) on DVD. I highly recommend.

Summary: That Touch of Mink
Comment: I am sorry to say the quality of the DVD was poor.

We couldn't watch it as it stopped and started, or paused and started.

I am very disappointed.

Will You replace this DVD?

Summary: Love Cary Grant. Love Doris Day. Hate This Movie.
Comment: A major failure from some incredible talent in front of and behind the camera. Who came up with this ridiculous story for such a great team as Cary Grant and Doris Day? It is a terrible waste of two screen greats and a totally worthless experience. If you like the typical comedies from either of these stars, you will probably not like this movie. For each it's one of their worst--and Cary Grant looks like he is just walking through his role with no emotion.

Summary: ... Bermuda Expeditions
Comment: "The right frame for a Renoir" [Philip Shayne alias Cary Grant] of a special fineness and charm ... and under the shower only the rich dandy "eventually" discovered, that it is only him to tame the soaked lady - who, following the sayings about Adam & Eve, is better than apples - by finally hitching her up

A paddle, dreams of global journeys and vitreous bathtubs, utmost luxury as well as room number 9 are starting this "killing" and flirty love story with tumultuous surprises. The not recorded, however, all of a sudden very much alike 5th apocalyptic rider and feisty blonde Cathy Timberlake [Doris Day] as a convincingly attractive beauty queen beloved by men turns out to become a cracking revelation of it's funniest kind for a straightforward and by success badly spoiled women hunter to get used to.

Exciting dialogs, most bizarre confusions and highly gifted actors always will enchant us by this chaotic love story within simplest cinematic conditions and setups, a real pearl among comedies from the 1960th.

Starring:
Philip Shayne as Cary Grant
Cathy Timberlaker as Doris Day
Mr. Smith as John Fiedler
Doctor Richardson as Jack Livesey
Roger as Gig Young
Connie Emerson as Audrey Meadows
