Pillow Talk

"Clever, witty screen play (...) [the] fun is transmitted to the audience in an easy and generous flow of ingeniously graphic situations and nimble repartee. (...) Color and some likeable music brighten this pretty film" 

"The most exciting thing about it is that, under the surprisingly sophisticated direction of Michael Gordon, Rock Hudson undergoes the metamorphosis from stock leading man to one of the best light comedians in the business. (...) outstanding screenplay" 

"A sleekly sophisticated production (...) There is a good deal of cinema trickery in 'Pillow Talk'" 

"Hudson was a smoothie who knew exactly how to get a rise and a smile from [Day]" 

"Compulsively mainstream as only 50s Hollywood could be, and never very funny" 

"[It] is frothily enjoyable, although in comparison with (say) the battle-of-the-sexes comedies of Hawks, it often seems complacent and shallow". 

"The quintessential '50s rom-com (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)" 

"It's ultra-glossy froth, and the smart plot about Day and Hudson sharing a telephone party line won an Oscar for best story and screenplay (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
