Doris Day stars as a movie star wannabe who falls into the clutches of Hollywood goofballs Jack Carson and Dennis Morgan (playing themselves for some odd reason). This comedy is cute and silly and a showcase of nonmusical cameos by Warner Bros. studio's major movie stars, including Joan Crawford, Edward G. Robinson, Gary Cooper, Patricia Neal, Eleanor Parker, Danny Kaye, Jane Wyman, Errol Flynn, and future president Ronald Reagan. The musical high spot is Day's rendition of "Blame My Absent-MInded Heart," solo and in a duet with Morgan. Favorite line: Unexpectedly surrounded by a gaggle of babbling Frenchmen while she is pretending she speaks French, Doris Day blurts out, "Parlez-vous Francais?" Day has such a flare for comedy that I never fail to laugh every time she makes goo-goo eyes at the big-shot director she is trying to impress under Carson and Morgan's hare-brained tutelage.
