Collection of films starring Doris Day. In 'Please Don't Eat the
Daisies' (1960) Day stars as housewife Kate McKay, who moves out of
New York to the suburbs with her husband Larry (David Niven) and
their four sons. However, when Kate finds out Larry has been
keeping up a partying lifestyle in the city and has been seen out
with Broadway star Deborah Vaughan (Janis Paige), she begins to
suspect he is up to no good. In the lighthearted musical 'Calamity
Jane' (1953), Day stars as the famous female sharpshooter who would
rather hit targets than chase men - until she falls for 'Wild Bill'
Hickok (Howard Keel), who would rather shoot Indians than chase
after a tomboy like Calamity Jane. The film features the
Oscar-winning song 'Secret Love'. In 'The Glass Bottom Boat' (1966)
Bruce Templeton (Rod Taylor) is the boss of a research lab who
hires the object of his affections, Jennifer Nelson (Day), to be
his biographer in an effort to get close to her. Things don't work
out as Bruce plans when his friend General Wallace Bleeker (Edward
Andrews) tells him that he suspects Jennifer of being a Russian
spy. In 'Young Man With a Horn' (1950) Kirk Douglas stars as
trumpet player Rick Martin. Rick takes his music very seriously and
becomes a star but soon he finds himself in trouble as a result of
his passion for jazz, his fiery temper and getting mixed up with
singer Jo Jordan (Day) and her friend Amy North (Lauren Bacall).
'Love Me Or Leave Me' (1955) tells the story of singer Ruth Etting
(Day) who rose to fame as a movie star in the 1920s. Unfortunately
her success was not just down to her talent as she was involved
with notorious mobster Marty Sydney (James Cagney) who helped make
her famous but made her life miserable. In 'Billy Rose's Jumbo'
(1962) Day stars as Kitty Wonder, a girl who runs a circus with her
father, Pop (Jimmy Durante). Their business is in dire trouble due
to Pop's gambling and they soon begin to lose most of their acts to
a rival circus run by John Noble (Dean Jagger). Kitty and Pop still
have their star attraction, Jumbo the elephant, and a new wire
walker named Sam Rawlins (Stephen Boyd) who Kitty takes a shine to.
Sam, however, is not who he appears to be...
