Always a sad day when a creative is lost :( May she R.I.P

Stephen Atkinson

A huge loss not only to the entertainment industry but more so to animal welfare :(

I love Doris and Clark Gable in the 1959 comedy teacher's pet. Doris was brilliant in the movie and it's a quintessential New York comedy from that time.

Stephen Atkinson

One of my favorites but I thought Calamity Jane was one of her best. Trouble is mention Doris Day or other greats to today's Generation and you get a blank stare! Sad really.

Phillip E. Hardy, Prolifique Also a big fan of the May-December romancer "Teacher's Pet," which also provided commentary on journalistic integrity. Good role for Gig Young as well.

Teresa Barber

Stephen Atkinson TRUE! She lived a long, productive life. Her movies are classics and I watched her TV show, growing up with my grandparents.

Stephen:

I grew up on Calamity Jane. Watched it many times before I was 12 years old.

Stephen Atkinson

I was around the same age ....fell in love with her (What a beautiful woman she was :)

Eric Christopherson

Yeah, Teacher's Pet is my fave of hers. Also liked her in The Man Who Knew Too Much.

Tony S.

"Que Sera Sera." So distant now. (And no Auto-Tune; just a mike and her voice.)

Sadly like many of the greats they are becoming few. At 54 I see the new stars rise but growing up with John Wayne and the likes they never fade from fond memories.

Rafael Brom

I do. She was great.

Phillip E. Hardy, Prolifique

Tony: My favorite Gig Young part. It's a wonderful example of a supporting role being so brilliantly written and realized. The stuff with Clark and gig in Dr. Pine's apartment is perfection.

Tony S.

Yeah, Young being cured of Gable's hangover by design. Very funny.

I like Young as the adulterous father of the bride in "Lovers and Other Strangers" but particularly his Academy Award winning turn as the unctuous emcee in "They Shoot Horses, Don't They?"
