The Thrill Of It All/Lover Come Back/It Happened To Jane Jack Lemmon 2005 DVD

Triple-bill of Doris Day classics. In ‘The Thrill of It All’ (1963), chirpy housewife Beverly Boyer (Day) becomes a celebrity overnight after inadvertently charming the manufacturer of Happy Soap at a dinner party. After a single television appearance Beverly becomes an advertising star – much to the chagrin of her neglected husband, obstetrician Gerald (James Garner). In ‘Lover Come Back’ (1961), Jerry Webster (Rock Hudson) and Carol Templeton (Day) are advertising rivals who are forever competing for the same accounts. When Jerry steals a client from Carol, she determines to infiltrate his company and find out who his latest, top secret, VIP account owner is and woo him to her side. Little does Carol realise that the mystery scientist responsible for Jerry’s new product is none other than Jerry himself. Finally, in ‘It Happened to Jane’ (1959), Jane Osgood (Day) is a struggling widow with two children who runs her own restaurant and lobster house. When the actions of an unscrupulous railroad boss destroys her latest lobster shipment, Jane calls on the services of her best friend, lawyer George Denham (Jack Lemmon). Denham wants to do everything he can to help, in the hope that Jane will realise he has always been in love with her.
