PILLOW TALK is delicious, vaguely innocent, 1950s sexual hi-jinks at the hands of the masters, producer Ross Hunter and his cast, Doris Day, Rock Hudson, and Tony Randall. Doris and Rock share a phone party line, and Doris can't stand Rock's womanizing ways. Randall, in one of his infamous "coded gay" performances as Rock's boss and buddy, is romantically interested in Doris, but is too much of a neurotic wimp for her to be interested. When Randall finds out that Rock has been disguising himself, again in a "coded gay" sub-performance as a Texas millionaire with sexual performance problems, Randall gets the disguised Rock in trouble with Doris, with whom Rock has fallen in love. Thelma Ritter offers a fine supporting performance as Doris's maid. Do not come to this movie expecting THE BROTHERS KARAMAZOV or A TALE OF TWO CITIES, or even something as relatively sophisticated as Neil Simon. This is pure mind candy. Enjoy it for what it is.
