Entertainment Reviews:
3 stars out of 5 -- [I]ts star chemistry and warm colours going down like a strong daiquiri. Think MAD MEN without the dark undercurrents.
Total 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.

Common Sense Media
Nominated for five Oscars, PILLOW TALK led to two more Day/Hudson collaborations, but this is by far the best. -- Grade: B+
Entertainment Weekly
It often seems complacent and shallow.

Time Out
A museum piece that's fresh as a daisy, textbook romantic comedy PILLOW TALK remains remake-proof because its meet-cute involves a telephone party line...

Product Description:
The first Rock Hudson/Doris Day movie tells the story of an odd couple who share a party line, eventually falling in love in spite of themselves. He's a womanizing cad, and she's a perky career gal with uncompromising moral standards and fine home furnishings. Academy Award Nominations: 5, including Best Actress--Doris Day. Academy Awards: Best Screenplay.
