Send me no Flowers - The Doris Day theme song is great!
Pillow Talk - A fun classic!
Michel D. (michelann) from WALNUT GROVE, MO Reviewed on 7/11/2020...
These movies are what made us go to the theaters in droves way back when! Fun and romantic with beautiful people playing roles many of us would love to portray in real life! Entertaining for all!

This is the best set in the world. What greater romantic comedies that Rock Hudson, Doris Day and Tony Randall. This set has the three movies they made together. These three movies get all thumbs up!!!!

Old Movies Getting New Movie Treatment!

"I am a huge fan of Doris and Rock's movies, so I was instantly attracted to this good deal. I do not regret my purchase one bit. First, about the packaging.I have never seen such attractive packaging for classic movies before. The box opens up and you find a separate box containing the discs. It folds out and you are welcomed with a full photo from Pillow Talk. Then it folds open again and reveals the dvds. There is a pocket for the Doris Day music cd, which contains eight songs from her movies, a pocket for Pillow Talk, with a scene from Pillow Talk on the background of the pocket, a pocket for Lover Come Back with a scene as well, and also Send Me No Flowers. The pictures are vivid and romantic, really portraying the type of movies Doris and Rock were known for. The only gripe I really have, is that there are no keep cases (the boxes you usually buy dvd's in), only the pockets so extra care has to be given so that they don't get scratched. Now onto the dvd's themselves.No changes have been made to the dvd's other than that Lover Come Back is new to dvd. I am still not crazy about the quality of the picture, being that it is a dvd. However, I do appreciate that the movies are seen in widescreen, which in my opinion gives it the edge of the vhs versions. Looking at the overall presentation, this collector's set is the best dvd deal I have seen in a long time. The attractive, unusual packaging, the fact that you get three dvd's and a cd for just over $20 cannot be beat. Grab this up while you can, it will make a great addition to anyone's dvd collection young or old."
Great entertainment

"Rock Hudson, Doris Day and Tony Randall made a memorable team in this trilogy of romantic comedies made between 1959 and 1964. Day and Hudson always played the (would-be) lovers; Randall was always the spare-part/best friend, a role that suited him.
In Pillow Talk, the best of the series, Day is a New York designer forced to share a party-line with womanizer Hudson. He takes a shine to her, and poses as a Texas rancher to try and woo her. Witty stuff, brilliantly scripted and acted, not forgetting Thelma Ritter, who won an Oscar for her hilarious performance as Day's drunken maid.
Lover Come Back hasn't aged quite as well, but it too is a witty and entertaining vehicle for the trio. The story is a variation of the first film.
Send Me No Flowers is different in tone. This time, Day and Hudson are married; he's a hypochondriac who thinks he has only a few weeks to live, and tries to make the best of the rest of his life without her finding out. Tends to get panned by critics, but it's a funny, engaging film."
Nothing better than watching Doris Day and Rock Hudson

"We all gathered around the family TV to watch a wholesome family movie that was clean, funny, entertaining and just plain fun. Both my teen daughters found the movie entertaining. I'm so glad I bought the DVD set because all three movies were great, the music CD was wonderful, and the packaging was beautiful. Worth every penny spent for several evenings of delightul fun."
The 1 Star is For the Botched Pillow Talk DVD!

"I bought this Doris Day and Rock Hudson movie DVD boxset. Pillow Talk is my favorite of the movies that Rock and Doris made together, my second favorite is Lover Come Back and then Send Me No Flowers. I'm pleased with the anamorphic widescreen transfers for Lover Come Back and Send Me No Flowers but I'm very disappointed with the new anamorphic widescreen DVD for Pillow Talk, it is badly botched with horrible misframings of several scenes and the wider the TV screen is the more noticeable the misframing flaws are. I would have liked if all three movies came with their own DVD cases and I wish the music CD also included the song Roly Poly from Pillow Talk but those things are so minor compared to the misframing problems with the Pillow Talk DVD. Look up the reviews for the individual Pillow Talk DVDs and you will see that I'm not the only fan who is unhappy about the flawed DVD! Pillow Talk is set in New York and about a man named Brad Allen who pretends to be a visitor from Texas named Rex Stetson so he can get away with wooing a woman named Jan Morrow because if she knew who he really was she would tell him to get lost! She has never met Brad but had heard his voice on the phone because they share a telephone partyline and they got into a tif about his hogging the line so that is why when he sees her in a night club and sees how attractive she is he puts on an accent and pretends to be a tourist from Texas. In Lover Come Back once again Rock is playing a guy who pretends to be someone else. This time Rock and Doris play rival Madison Avenue advertising executives and once again has Rock Hudson's character tricking Doris Day's character by pretending to be someone else and in Send Me No Flowers Rock Hudson plays George a hypochondriac who overhears his doctor talking about another patient who is dying and mistakenly think he is talking about him so he thinks he has to find his wife Judy played by Doris Day a new husband which leads to even more misunderstandings when she gets suspicious and thinks he is having an affair. Tony Randall costars in all three of the movies and in Lover Come Back one of the other co stars is Ann B. Davis who played Alice in the Brady Bunch. Update: Universal aware of customers bing upset about the botched Pillow Talk DVD has offered new DVDs where the misframing flaw was corrected and I got a replacement and I'm very happy to say that it has indeed been corrected. The replacement DVD is a lot better and I would change my rating to 5 stars!"
Romance comedy at its best

"Rock Hudson and Doris Day are probably the best romance comedy team ever. This DVD set has three classics, all of which are very entertaining and relaxing movies from the early 1960s. Color quality is excellent. The discs are in a beautiful tri-fold portfolio that further enhances their value and appeal."
