    Magnificently charming. Day's singing had me swooning. 3 years 3 months ago

    After directing her screen debut, Romance on the High Seas, Michael Curtiz doubles down on Doris Day with My Dream Is Yours (Jack Carson also returns with a bigger part). Unfortunately, it's just not as strong a story. Carson is a talent scout/agent who discovers Day, maybe falls in love with her a little bit, and tries to sell her to venues, shows and sponsors, we've seen this sort of thing many times before. I can't even say the songs are particularly memorable even if they do their best to sing them often, so yes, refrains might become ear worms for a couple days, not even the Bugs Bunny number this movie is probably most known for. But Doris Day has good comedy instincts and is always a charm to watch, and both Carson and Eve Arden are pleasant to watch as her handler team. There's a terrible romance subplot where we feel like we're supposed to root for the jealous alcoholic Bing Crosby wannabe in her life, but the movie gets on side and ends appropriately. More than appropriately, sweetly. Cute, but for forgettable stuff. 4 years ago
