ShangLuda Admirable film.

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Dave Doris Day plays her role as a gorgeous middle-class suburban wife very well. She wrongly believes that her husband is having an affair with another woman. He's a hypochondriac who wrongly believes that he's terminally ill - and because of that, he is looking for a new partner for her.

cdcrb critics like 'pillow talk' more, but I really think this movie is the best one they made together. they are both at the top of their game and amazingly doris was the biggest movie star in the world when she did this film. at the age of 40. rock is a hypochondriac who mistakenly believes he is dying. through a series of mishaps doris thinks he is covering up an affair. she throws rock out of the house and in an ironic twist he ends up in tony randall's bed, in tony's pajamas. there are lots of in jokes thrown about in the funny and clever script. both stars look great-like movie stars-and we have the inevitable happy ending. lots of fun and they don't make 'em like this anymore. that's too bad.

TheLittleSongbird Send Me No Flowers is a very entertaining film, and a real treat for fans of Doris Day and Rock Hudson. I marginally prefer Pillow Talk and Lover Come Back, but Send Me No Flowers is still very good. It is a touch too long however, and it lags a tad on occasions. Even with these very minor criticisms, it is very sophisticated and funny. The script has many witty lines delivered with panache by all involved, and the story although the subject matter is somewhat morbid manages to be beautifully constructed and sophisticated. The production values are beautiful especially in the cinematography and Doris Day's clothes, while the music is lovely with an irresistible title song. The acting is great, Rock Hudson in particular is brilliant in a difficult role, while Paul Lynde really stands out being hysterical as the cemetery plot salesman and Doris Day still has that fresh and endearing approach that I love her for. Also Norman Jewison does do a stellar job directing. Overall, very nice film. 8/10 Bethany Cox

tubelarbells Oh how i miss those days, where a picture didn't have to blow you out of the cinema, og to provoke your stymie with bloody violence. The Hollywood times, where you could get far with humor, love and a warm story.I grew up with the likes of Doris Day, Tony Randall, Rock HUdson, Jack Lemmon, Tony Curtis, Cary Grant, Marilyn Monroe, Marlon Brandon, Grace Kelly and many others fantastic actors. In this period of from 1945 - 1970 some of the best movies where made. We all remember films like Cacablanca, Some like it hot, The odd couple, The African Queen,From here to eternity, Roman holiday, The bridge over the river Kwai, Ben Hur, Spartacus, Doctor Zhivago. And take then the must fantastic musical that also where made before the time of the computer animation took over.Just think about Singing in the rain or my favorite, The sound of music and last The west side story. We domt make them any more. We don't know how to. People have chances and people have learn to demand more. Its just like drugs. The want more and bigger every time. I know that we later on has made bigger and more fantastic to watch for the eye and the ear movies. But where were those movies of our present, if we didn't have all the computer animation. What was Titanic, KIng Kong, Star Wars, The lord of the ring and many others of the big films of today. And how good are the actors of to day, when you take all the fancy computer tecnic away from them. Its just like inside the music world. Just you have a good face and a attitude, we give you the voice. Back in the old days, they had to be good acting, because there wasn't anything to save them. The makeup at the time, was awful, and the special affects wasen't effective. They had to rely on the actors, Screenplayers and the director. And think about how we admire the old gone stars. Look at Marylin, James Dean, Marlon Brandon, Frank Sinatra, Cary Grant, Katharina Hepburn,John Wayne and Steve Mcqueen,and menu others. When we go into a poster shop, there are all there on the wall. They have become legends of a time where it all seemed easier and not so complex-ed as it is today. But back to send me no flower. I get filled up with joy, when i see movies like this. The plot is funny and the actors understand how to make it even better. Doris day is as she always were, charming, sweet and sexy as hell. All the female actors of today, who are me-lasting there buddy to find the perfect sexy look, should learn from Doris. Not a single time, showed she her naked body or even one breast in the nude, but we men still dream about her. Maybe because she still left somethings to imagine. She never sold out. Rock Hudson the perfect man, plays as always with grace and man power. He has the perfect face and it was god who gave him the perfect match on the screen in Doris Day. But they where only that good, because they had the perfect third wheel in Tony Randall. I have never seen a man play so perfectly a drunk, as he dos in this movie. Those 3 together is still the best date for me on a rainy day.I hope you all will go back to the old days to pick of some of those old movies and give them a chance. They might give you the time of your life, and then you might better understand why your parents or there parents always talk about that time in film history.All the best to you From Denmark.
