Review of Lover Come Back (1961) by Darren D — 27 Sep 2008
Rock Hudson and Doris Day reprise their traditional roles of business rivals in another of their famous comedy pairings. This, like Pillow Talk, is all about shenanigans in the ad industry, in this case about a product called V whose tonic effects were even more pronounced than its latter day true life counterpart.
In the grand tradition of tecnicolor art direction, if it was a colour it was deployed in great quantities. Doris Day struts, pouts and makes bug eyes in a succession of fabulous gowns while Rock Hudson looks simply fabulous.
The pair had chemistry before the term came into popular use. Well worth seeing.
