Happy Birthday: Doris Day!!

Tuesday, April 3, 2012


Doris Day's childhood idol was Ginger Rogers, with whom she starred in Storm Warning (1951). Wednesday, April 4 @ 10:00 PM On TCM. ET. Which maybe the only Doris Day classic movies have not yet seen.

The story is about Marsha Mitchell, a traveling dress model, stops in a southern town to see her sister who has married a Ku Klux Klansman. Marsha sees the KKK commit a murder and helps District Attorney Burt Rainey in bringing the criminals to justice.

Fun Facts:
Joan Crawford was asked by studio boss Jack L. Warner to play Doris Day's sister in the film, Joan declined saying "Come on, Jack. No one would ever believe that I would have Doris Day for a sister!"

Doris Day's first non-singing role.
