There's not a year goes past when I don't listen to these all over again. | 0:00:02 | 0:00:06 | |
And yet the first year I was a movie critic | 0:00:06 | 0:00:08 | |
was the last year that Doris Day made a movie, | 0:00:08 | 0:00:11 | |
and I scored all kinds of cheap shots at her expense, | 0:00:11 | 0:00:14 | |
all those one-liners about how she was Hollywood's perennial virgin. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:18 | |
Took me a while to get back in touch | 0:00:18 | 0:00:20 | |
with the fact that Doris Day had always been my favourite movie star, | 0:00:20 | 0:00:23 | |
the one I admired the most and the one I liked the most. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:26 | |
Maybe her talent was so big she just made it all look too easy, | 0:00:26 | 0:00:30 | |
but she could sing, she could dance, | 0:00:30 | 0:00:32 | |
she could make us laugh and she could make us cry. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:35 | |
Join us now for A Sentimental Journey With Doris Day. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:39 | |
-NEWSREEL: -A gala turnout in filmland for the Hollywood premiere of Midnight Lace. | 0:00:41 | 0:00:46 | |
Doris Day, star of the new film, arrives. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
She just kinda glowed, for me. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
Not the only star in the sky, but certainly one of the brightest. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
The Village Theater in Westwood | 0:00:54 | 0:00:56 | |
is the scene of the California premiere of The Thrill Of It All. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
The picture stars Doris Day, who is escorted by her husband, | 0:00:59 | 0:01:04 | |
-Marty Melcher, to the glittering affair. -Those eyes, the light, | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
the intelligence, the intensity, the emotion, the humour, all those. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:11 | |
She didn't know how good she was! | 0:01:11 | 0:01:13 | |
And another luminary to receive the award is lovely Doris Day. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:17 | |
I think that Doris Day | 0:01:17 | 0:01:18 | |
is probably the most underrated, underappreciated actress | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
that's ever come out of Hollywood. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:23 | |
The organisation's Star of the Year award is presented to Doris Day | 0:01:23 | 0:01:27 | |
by TOA president Albert M Pickus with a special citation to Miss Day. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:32 | |
She could do anything. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
It was that up spirit, thumbs up as opposed to thumbs down. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:39 | |
And her life was not that happy. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:40 | |
The evening ends on a beautiful note as Doris Day receives the accolade from Film paper. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:46 | |
It's Miss Day's night! | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
I'm still Doris Mary Ann Kappelhoff! | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
From Cincinnati, Ohio. | 0:01:57 | 0:01:59 | |
And, uh... | 0:01:59 | 0:02:01 | |
from a lovely family, and all I ever wanted was to get married, | 0:02:01 | 0:02:06 | |
have a nice husband and have maybe two or three children | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
and keep house and cook, keep the house nice and clean | 0:02:09 | 0:02:14 | |
and live happily ever after. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
And I ended up in Hollywood. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:19 | |
And if I can do it, you can do it! | 0:02:19 | 0:02:22 | |
Anybody can! | 0:02:22 | 0:02:25 | |

Doris Day was born in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1924, | 0:03:02 | 0:03:07 | |
the only daughter of William and Alma Kappelhoff. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:09 | |
Until her father abandoned the family when she was five years old, | 0:03:09 | 0:03:14 | |
little Doris lived in a perfect world. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
I loved playing house. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:19 | |
And I pretended that I was married, and I always had babies, | 0:03:19 | 0:03:24 | |
and I would cook and I would say, "Oh, Daddy's coming home at 5:30, | 0:03:24 | 0:03:30 | |
"and I'm going to tell him what a good girl you were all day today." | 0:03:30 | 0:03:34 | |
I would go all day long like that. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:37 | |
Her father was a "professor" - in quotes - of music, | 0:03:37 | 0:03:43 | |
so she comes from a family in which | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
the piano and the organ and music was part of the life of their family, | 0:03:45 | 0:03:50 | |
because her father earned his living that way. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:52 | |
She took lessons and became an accomplished dancer. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:58 | |
Well, I started dancing when I was five. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
I think I went to dancing school almost every day of the week. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:04 | |
My poor little grandmother would trundle me off and take me. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:08 | |
And I studied acrobatics, ballet and toe, | 0:04:08 | 0:04:13 | |
tap-dancing, personality class, | 0:04:13 | 0:04:16 | |
and I thought maybe one day I might be a ballerina. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:19 | |
At age 13, Doris won an amateur dance contest | 0:04:19 | 0:04:22 | |
with her partner, Jerry Doherty. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
Their prize money was set aside | 0:04:24 | 0:04:25 | |
for lessons at a famous dance academy in Hollywood, | 0:04:25 | 0:04:28 | |
and friends and neighbours gathered for a farewell party. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:31 | |
They went for a milkshake or something after the party. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:36 | |
They were in a car driven by one of her friends. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:39 | |
She was sitting in the back seat | 0:04:39 | 0:04:40 | |
with this young man who was in the dance with her, | 0:04:40 | 0:04:43 | |
and he made a mad dash for the railroad crossing, | 0:04:43 | 0:04:47 | |
hoping to beat the train. And he didn't. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:50 | |
Oh, this train wreck! The great train wreck. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:54 | |
Anyway, my leg was broken in many places, | 0:04:54 | 0:04:58 | |
and I didn't walk for a long time... | 0:04:58 | 0:05:03 | |
much less dance! | 0:05:03 | 0:05:05 | |
And that's when I started singing. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:08 | |
So every break is a good one. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:11 | |
During a long recovery, Doris passed the time | 0:05:11 | 0:05:13 | |
singing along with big bands on the radio - | 0:05:13 | 0:05:16 | |
the Dorsey brothers, Duke Ellington, | 0:05:16 | 0:05:19 | |
and her favourite vocalist, Ella Fitzgerald. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:21 | |
Impressed by her daughter's natural talent, | 0:05:21 | 0:05:24 | |
Doris's mother suggested she take voice lessons. | 0:05:24 | 0:05:27 | |
And don't you know that she took me to a classical voice teacher. | 0:05:27 | 0:05:31 | |
And it was the worst. It was just the worst! I hated it. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:37 | |
But then we found out about a woman named Grace Raine | 0:05:38 | 0:05:44 | |
from WLW in Cincinnati. | 0:05:44 | 0:05:46 | |
She couldn't sing a note, but she was a great coach. She was the best. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:53 | |
Anyway, we'd go over to her place on crutches. | 0:05:53 | 0:05:56 | |
She was on the second floor, | 0:05:56 | 0:05:57 | |
and I'd have to scoot up this long flight of stairs. | 0:05:57 | 0:06:01 | |
And we didn't have much money at the time, | 0:06:01 | 0:06:05 | |
and voice lessons are expensive, | 0:06:05 | 0:06:08 | |
but she thought that I had some talent and she said to my mother, | 0:06:08 | 0:06:12 | |
"I'm going to give her three lessons for the price of one." | 0:06:12 | 0:06:16 | |
Eventually, 16-year-old Doris was featured | 0:06:16 | 0:06:19 | |
in a weekly broadcast on WLW, | 0:06:19 | 0:06:21 | |
and a local band leader, Barney Rapp, was listening. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:25 | |
I sang a song called Day After Day. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:28 | |
And Barney Rapp heard me sing that song. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:32 | |
So when I came to him for my interview, he said, | 0:06:32 | 0:06:36 | |
"What's your name again? Doris Kapps?" | 0:06:36 | 0:06:39 | |
He made this awful face. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:40 | |
And he said, "That has to go. I hope you don't mind." | 0:06:42 | 0:06:46 | |
And he said, | 0:06:46 | 0:06:48 | |
"Y'know, I loved the way you sang that song Day After Day." | 0:06:48 | 0:06:51 | |
And he said, "I think maybe your name should be Day." | 0:06:53 | 0:06:56 | |
So you see, my first band was Barney Rapp and his New Englanders | 0:06:58 | 0:07:01 | |
in Cincinnati. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
And my darling, precious mother would have to drive me | 0:07:03 | 0:07:07 | |
to and from work. And I was just a kid! | 0:07:07 | 0:07:10 | |
And I had beautiful gowns, | 0:07:10 | 0:07:12 | |
but she wouldn't let me put my gown on at home. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:15 | |
She said, "Your gown's going to get wrinkled in the car. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:18 | |
"You cannot wear it in the car. You have to dress there." | 0:07:18 | 0:07:21 | |
I said, "There's no dressing room!" | 0:07:21 | 0:07:23 | |
She said, "You dress in the ladies' room." | 0:07:23 | 0:07:25 | |
So there I would be, in the john, | 0:07:25 | 0:07:27 | |
and she would be saying, "Do you have your bra?" | 0:07:27 | 0:07:30 | |
Oh, I was so embarrassed! | 0:07:30 | 0:07:32 | |
# Big noise blew in from Winnetka... # | 0:07:32 | 0:07:37 | |
After a stint with Barney Rapp, Doris auditioned for Bob Crosby, | 0:07:37 | 0:07:40 | |
who was playing at the Blackhawk in Chicago. | 0:07:40 | 0:07:43 | |
I was so green and young, from Cincinnati, Ohio, and I didn't know very much, | 0:07:43 | 0:07:48 | |
and there I was, singing in front of that band, | 0:07:48 | 0:07:51 | |
with all these fabulous musicians behind me, | 0:07:51 | 0:07:54 | |
Jess Stacy at the piano and Nappy Lamare on guitar | 0:07:54 | 0:07:59 | |
and Eddie Miller on saxophone | 0:07:59 | 0:08:01 | |
and Bobby Haggart on bass - and I had a crush on him - | 0:08:01 | 0:08:03 | |
Ray Bauduc on drums and Billy Butterfield on trumpet. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:08 | |
And I was just... | 0:08:08 | 0:08:10 | |
I was just flabbergasted, singing in front of this band. | 0:08:10 | 0:08:13 | |
And I got the job! | 0:08:13 | 0:08:15 | |
Doris earned 75 a week travelling with Bob Crosby and the Bob-Cats. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:20 | |
The tour ended at the Strand Theater in New York, | 0:08:20 | 0:08:22 | |
where Les Brown heard Doris for the first time | 0:08:22 | 0:08:25 | |
and insisted that she join his band. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:27 | |
I think every man in the band was in love with her, in a sisterly way, | 0:08:27 | 0:08:31 | |
and she was a pal to everybody in the band. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:34 | |
We were very lucky to find a girl that didn't, uh, give trouble. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:39 | |
I can mention a lot of bands that had trouble with the girl singers | 0:08:39 | 0:08:42 | |
because they were troublesome! | 0:08:42 | 0:08:45 | |
# When we met | 0:08:47 | 0:08:49 | |
# I smelt love so lightly | 0:08:49 | 0:08:51 | |
# You can bet | 0:08:51 | 0:08:53 | |
# I responded brightly | 0:08:53 | 0:08:54 | |
# I said, "Dig me, Joe From top to toe | 0:08:54 | 0:08:58 | |
# "But so politely" | 0:08:58 | 0:09:01 | |
# When we danced | 0:09:01 | 0:09:03 | |
# And you held me tightly | 0:09:03 | 0:09:05 | |
# We romance | 0:09:05 | 0:09:07 | |
# Then I wake it slightly | 0:09:07 | 0:09:08 | |
# You said, "Solid jazz | 0:09:08 | 0:09:10 | |
# "Please scratch my back" | 0:09:10 | 0:09:13 | |
BOTH: # Well, so politely... # | 0:09:13 | 0:09:16 | |
'Les Brown is just the greatest guy in the whole world, | 0:09:16 | 0:09:19 | |
'as were all the boys in the band. They were all like brothers to me. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:23 | |
'We rode buses all day, and I lived out of a suitcase. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:33 | |
'It was just a hard routine,' | 0:09:33 | 0:09:35 | |
although I loved it. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:36 | |
But I always thought, "Wouldn't it be nice to work in the daytime | 0:09:36 | 0:09:42 | |
"and have your nights?" | 0:09:42 | 0:09:44 | |
# Is it love or is it conscription? | 0:09:48 | 0:09:53 | |
# Is this marriage epidemic fact or fiction? | 0:09:53 | 0:09:58 | |
# I see guys who used to falter | 0:09:58 | 0:10:00 | |
# Dashing madly to the altar | 0:10:00 | 0:10:03 | |
# Is it love or is it conscription? # | 0:10:03 | 0:10:07 | |
'It was the happiest time that I could ever have. | 0:10:07 | 0:10:11 | |
'But that's when I stopped my career, | 0:10:11 | 0:10:14 | |
'right at a fabulous time in my life, | 0:10:14 | 0:10:17 | |
'and said to Les, | 0:10:17 | 0:10:18 | |
'"I'm going to go home to Cincinnati and get married."' | 0:10:18 | 0:10:21 | |
He said, "You're going to do what? You're just starting!" | 0:10:21 | 0:10:24 | |
I said, "Well, I'm in love. I think." | 0:10:24 | 0:10:28 | |
She was with us only for about a year before she left to get married | 0:10:28 | 0:10:33 | |
to Al Jorden, who was a trombone player with Jim Dorsey's band. | 0:10:33 | 0:10:37 | |
They both went back to Cincinnati. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:39 | |
She had a child, and, uh... | 0:10:39 | 0:10:42 | |
So young. Not dry behind the ears. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:44 | |
My mother was furious. Everybody was angry with me. | 0:10:44 | 0:10:47 | |
And I married him. And I had my baby. | 0:10:47 | 0:10:51 | |
And then I left him. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:53 | |
He turned out to be quite a psychopathic, erm, individual, | 0:10:53 | 0:10:57 | |
with pathologic jealousy, | 0:10:57 | 0:11:00 | |
and mistreated and maltreated Doris in an outrageous way. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:03 | |
But one beautiful thing came out of that marriage, | 0:11:03 | 0:11:06 | |
my very first marriage, and that was my son. | 0:11:06 | 0:11:09 | |
And if I hadn't married this bird, I wouldn't have my terrific son Terry. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:15 | |
And so you see, | 0:11:15 | 0:11:17 | |
out of these awful experiences comes something wonderful. | 0:11:17 | 0:11:22 | |
# You're like a distant lost horizon, my love | 0:11:22 | 0:11:29 | |
# You're unattainable to me... # | 0:11:29 | 0:11:33 | |
'I started singing at WLW right away, | 0:11:33 | 0:11:36 | |
'and I was doing a show called Moon River' | 0:11:36 | 0:11:39 | |
that was on at midnight, from 12:00 to 12:30, | 0:11:39 | 0:11:43 | |
and it went all over the middle west. | 0:11:43 | 0:11:47 | |
Les Brown was travelling with the band, | 0:11:47 | 0:11:49 | |
and he was listening to the radio. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:52 | |
They were driving from one city to another. | 0:11:52 | 0:11:55 | |
And he said, "That's Dodo! | 0:11:55 | 0:11:57 | |
"That's Dodo, I know it's Dodo!" | 0:11:57 | 0:11:59 | |
#..you see? That sails across the sea... # | 0:11:59 | 0:12:05 | |
'And he called, and he said to my mother,' | 0:12:05 | 0:12:07 | |
"You've got to get her back with my band. You've got to talk her into it." | 0:12:07 | 0:12:11 | |
She said, "I don't think she'll go, because of Terry. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:14 | |
"If I know Doris, I don't think she'll go." | 0:12:14 | 0:12:17 | |
But I did. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:18 | |
And back with Les, and then all the good things happened. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:24 | |
# Gonna take a sentimental journey | 0:12:24 | 0:12:30 | |
# Gonna set my heart at ease... # | 0:12:30 | 0:12:36 | |
Sentimental Journey was incredible. | 0:12:36 | 0:12:38 | |
This was right after the war, and I remember when, at rehearsal, | 0:12:38 | 0:12:43 | |
after the dance job that night, | 0:12:43 | 0:12:46 | |
he passed out this music, gave me the sheet music. | 0:12:46 | 0:12:50 | |
I said, "That's a lovely title." | 0:12:50 | 0:12:53 | |
And he said, "Wait till you hear it." | 0:12:53 | 0:12:55 | |
We went right in the studio and recorded it. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:58 | |
It was released in January of '45, | 0:12:58 | 0:13:00 | |
and at that time, the war in Europe was pretty well finished, | 0:13:00 | 0:13:06 | |
and it looked like victory was just around the corner. And it was. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:09 | |
It makes me cry, almost, because all the... | 0:13:09 | 0:13:14 | |
..the servicemen, y'know, there they were, overseas, | 0:13:16 | 0:13:20 | |
and they were about to come home, and... | 0:13:20 | 0:13:23 | |
..the letters started coming in. | 0:13:24 | 0:13:26 | |
That song said so much, y'know? | 0:13:28 | 0:13:31 | |
-# Sentimental journey. -# | 0:13:31 | 0:13:40 | |
And of course, it made Doris. Don't you think? | 0:13:40 | 0:13:43 | |
It brought her to the attention of the moguls out here in Hollywood. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:50 | |
And when she left the band - uh, I think it was in '47 - | 0:13:50 | 0:13:55 | |
she took a screen test and did her first picture | 0:13:55 | 0:13:58 | |
and was a big hit. She was a big hit. | 0:13:58 | 0:14:00 | |
And now it's history. | 0:14:00 | 0:14:02 | |
Well, there's so much in between there, y'know? | 0:14:02 | 0:14:04 | |
The big thing was that I was married. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:07 | |
Seems like I was always married. | 0:14:08 | 0:14:11 | |
But I was married. | 0:14:11 | 0:14:12 | |
This particular time, I was married, and we had broken up. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:16 | |
And I was singing at the Little Club in New York, | 0:14:16 | 0:14:19 | |
and that's when we broke up, on the phone. | 0:14:19 | 0:14:22 | |
I mean, you just don't do that. | 0:14:22 | 0:14:24 | |
And so I wanted to go to California | 0:14:24 | 0:14:27 | |
to talk with him and see if, y'know, we could maybe work things out. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:34 | |
Her second marriage, to musician George Weidler, couldn't be reconciled, | 0:14:34 | 0:14:37 | |
and Doris was devastated. | 0:14:37 | 0:14:39 | |
Her agent suggested that maybe a big Hollywood party might cheer her up. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:44 | |
At Hollywood parties, everybody has to get up and do something, | 0:14:44 | 0:14:47 | |
which I hate. | 0:14:47 | 0:14:49 | |
Maybe they don't do that now. | 0:14:49 | 0:14:50 | |
I don't know what they do in Hollywood. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:52 | |
But at that time, everybody was up performing all the time. | 0:14:52 | 0:14:56 | |
And they dragged me up to the piano, and they had me sing. | 0:14:56 | 0:15:00 | |
And Sammy Cahn was there, and Jule Styne, | 0:15:00 | 0:15:03 | |
and they said, "We're writing the score | 0:15:03 | 0:15:07 | |
"for a new movie for Michael Curtiz, | 0:15:07 | 0:15:09 | |
"and he's looking for an unknown. | 0:15:09 | 0:15:12 | |
"And she has to test." | 0:15:12 | 0:15:14 | |
The movie was called Romance on the High Seas, | 0:15:14 | 0:15:17 | |
and director Michael Curtiz discovered a star. | 0:15:17 | 0:15:20 | |
I didn't know anything about acting, and I told him that! | 0:15:20 | 0:15:23 | |
Y'know, I said, "You're taking a singer | 0:15:23 | 0:15:26 | |
"and putting her into a top spot in your film, the leading lady, | 0:15:26 | 0:15:33 | |
"and I haven't studied. And I would like to study." | 0:15:33 | 0:15:37 | |
And he said no. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:39 | |
He said, "I don't want you to study. No, no, no, no, no, dahlink." | 0:15:39 | 0:15:44 | |
And... And I didn't, | 0:15:44 | 0:15:47 | |
because he was the boss, and he said no. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:51 | |
Sometimes I think I should have. | 0:15:51 | 0:15:53 | |
Doris, paired with veteran actor Jack Carson, was a natural, | 0:15:53 | 0:15:57 | |
and in scene after scene she stole the show. | 0:15:57 | 0:16:00 | |
# When we walk hand in hand | 0:16:00 | 0:16:04 | |
# The world becomes a wonderland | 0:16:04 | 0:16:08 | |
# It's magic | 0:16:08 | 0:16:11 | |
# How else can I explain | 0:16:12 | 0:16:15 | |
# Those rainbows when there is no rain? | 0:16:15 | 0:16:21 | |
# It's magic... # | 0:16:21 | 0:16:23 | |
'The most important thing which Grace Raine told me | 0:16:23 | 0:16:28 | |
'was that when you sing, don't think of a big audience out there. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:33 | |
'Sing into someone's ear, a person. You're acting! | 0:16:33 | 0:16:39 | |
'She was right.' | 0:16:39 | 0:16:40 | |
# ..the magic is my love for you. # | 0:16:40 | 0:16:50 | |
Everyone knew that Doris Day could sing. | 0:16:50 | 0:16:53 | |
The surprise was her special gift for comedy. | 0:16:53 | 0:16:56 | |
-My dear young lady? -Yes? -I advise you to go to your cabin | 0:16:56 | 0:16:59 | |
-and get out of your clothes. -I beg your pardon? | 0:16:59 | 0:17:01 | |
-Well, don't go in there. You'll be embarrassed. -Embarrassed? Why? | 0:17:01 | 0:17:04 | |
-Well, nobody dresses first night out. -They don't? | 0:17:04 | 0:17:07 | |
Even if it's chilly? | 0:17:07 | 0:17:10 | |
This I got to see. | 0:17:10 | 0:17:11 | |
'Jack Carson taught me so much.' | 0:17:11 | 0:17:13 | |
He taught me where to stand, how to move, | 0:17:13 | 0:17:18 | |
don't turn your head that way, it's not good, be careful, | 0:17:18 | 0:17:22 | |
always see where the camera is, | 0:17:22 | 0:17:24 | |
and all these little things, you know? He didn't have to do that. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:28 | |
# You sigh, the song begins | 0:17:28 | 0:17:33 | |
# You speak and I hear violins | 0:17:33 | 0:17:38 | |
# It's magic... # | 0:17:38 | 0:17:41 | |
Anybody who heard Doris sing never forgot her. | 0:17:41 | 0:17:44 | |
But when she did It's Magic, | 0:17:45 | 0:17:47 | |
I got involved with more weird people because of her It's Magic. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:52 | |
I mean, somebody that you were out with | 0:17:52 | 0:17:54 | |
that you didn't think was that swell, | 0:17:54 | 0:17:56 | |
you'd listen to Doris for a little while and they looked wonderful! | 0:17:56 | 0:18:00 | |
So I've got to get even with her for that someday. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:03 | |
# When in my heart I know | 0:18:05 | 0:18:10 | |
# The magic | 0:18:10 | 0:18:12 | |
# is my love for you. # | 0:18:12 | 0:18:20 | |
In her very first film, she, in effect, became a star overnight, | 0:18:29 | 0:18:33 | |
because she did have this dazzling personality, she had confidence, | 0:18:33 | 0:18:38 | |
an intensity and a freshness. | 0:18:38 | 0:18:42 | |
There was something quite unlike anybody else about her. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:45 | |
After that first picture, the public took her to their hearts, | 0:18:45 | 0:18:48 | |
and they just didn't want to let her go. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:51 | |
She just kept going and going, because she had that something. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:55 | |
Don't stop me now! I'm tickin'! | 0:18:58 | 0:18:59 | |
# I don't care what I did last night | 0:19:03 | 0:19:06 | |
# And the night before that And the night before that too... # | 0:19:06 | 0:19:09 | |
# I'll see you in my dreams... # | 0:19:09 | 0:19:15 | |
You haven't even said that you love me. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:20 | |
Well, gosh, what do you want? Moon, June, love, dove, that's my business all day! | 0:19:20 | 0:19:26 | |
-Mr Kahn. -Yeah? -Let's get down to business! | 0:19:26 | 0:19:30 | |
Warner Brothers signed Doris Day to a seven-year contract, | 0:19:32 | 0:19:35 | |
and she made two or three movies a year, most of them musicals. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:38 | |
Sparkling in every role, she became an accomplished actress | 0:19:38 | 0:19:42 | |
and a box-office hit. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:44 | |
God sure must think a lot of me for giving me you. | 0:19:55 | 0:19:59 | |
I loved every minute, but I never thought of going into the movies, | 0:20:00 | 0:20:07 | |
and becoming a movie star. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
Then, when I had the opportunity, what was great to me | 0:20:11 | 0:20:15 | |
was the fact that I could have my son, and my mother, | 0:20:15 | 0:20:20 | |
and a nice little house. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:22 | |
So when I signed at Warner Brothers, I was thrilled | 0:20:22 | 0:20:26 | |
that I could be living like other people. | 0:20:26 | 0:20:30 | |
She felt that now she was a movie star, | 0:20:30 | 0:20:33 | |
she had to give a movie star's performance in everything she did, | 0:20:33 | 0:20:37 | |
and that meant coming to the set on time, being the last one to leave, | 0:20:37 | 0:20:41 | |
learning your lines, showing up. | 0:20:41 | 0:20:43 | |
It never occurred to Doris to say, "I'm a movie star, I'm having a week off," | 0:20:43 | 0:20:48 | |
or, "I'll do that when I feel like it." | 0:20:48 | 0:20:50 | |
Not Doris. Doris did it. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:52 | |
# 10,000 | 0:20:52 | 0:20:53 | |
# 400 | 0:20:53 | 0:20:54 | |
# 36 sheep | 0:20:54 | 0:20:56 | |
# And one sheep that got away. # | 0:20:56 | 0:20:58 | |
He took it on the Lam! | 0:20:58 | 0:21:00 | |
'There were times when I didn't like scripts that I had to do. | 0:21:00 | 0:21:04 | |
'But a deal was a deal.' | 0:21:04 | 0:21:05 | |
# Oh what a fool I am. # | 0:21:05 | 0:21:09 | |
'I felt that it was wrong to go on suspension.' | 0:21:09 | 0:21:13 | |
My working in a film and being good in a film didn't depend on Jack Warner. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:17 | |
Someone much higher. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:20 | |
And I just put my trust where it was supposed to be. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:25 | |
And I just said, "I know that nothing is going to hurt me. I will give 100%." | 0:21:25 | 0:21:29 | |
# You get a mental kiss with every sheep I count | 0:21:29 | 0:21:33 | |
# Add them all together, that's a large amount | 0:21:33 | 0:21:36 | |
# Cos I've counted a trillion sheep | 0:21:36 | 0:21:38 | |
# How many? | 0:21:38 | 0:21:39 | |
# I've counted a billion sheep | 0:21:39 | 0:21:41 | |
# How many? | 0:21:41 | 0:21:42 | |
# Well, at least a million sheep | 0:21:42 | 0:21:44 | |
-# I know -..how the numbers grow | 0:21:44 | 0:21:47 | |
# And I got about a million more to go | 0:21:47 | 0:21:52 | |
# 10,000, 9,000, 8,000 | 0:21:52 | 0:21:54 | |
# 7,000, 6,000, 5,000 | 0:21:54 | 0:21:57 | |
# 4,000, 3,000. # | 0:21:57 | 0:21:59 | |
Sheep. | 0:21:59 | 0:22:01 | |
Her agent and third husband Marty Melcher strongly reinforced Doris's dedication | 0:22:01 | 0:22:06 | |
to hard work, and her loyalty to the studio. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:09 | |
Marty was a very well-connected Hollywood agent, | 0:22:09 | 0:22:12 | |
and was the agent for Doris on all of her films. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:15 | |
He saw to it that Doris went from one film to another without drawing a deep breath. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:21 | |
But Marty Melcher, to all intents and purposes, | 0:22:21 | 0:22:24 | |
was a man devoted to Doris, devoting his life to her, | 0:22:24 | 0:22:29 | |
making the best possible deals for her and so forth. | 0:22:29 | 0:22:32 | |
During these happy times, Doris made two of her best Warner Brothers musicals, | 0:22:32 | 0:22:36 | |
and both of them turned out to be perennial favourites. | 0:22:36 | 0:22:39 | |
Moonlight Bay and Silvery Moon were filmed early on at Warner Brothers, | 0:22:39 | 0:22:44 | |
and they just... | 0:22:44 | 0:22:47 | |
..bring back such nostalgia for me when I think about them, | 0:22:49 | 0:22:54 | |
because we made the two films back-to-back. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:57 | |
And became a real family. We really did. | 0:22:57 | 0:23:01 | |
We just loved all being together. | 0:23:01 | 0:23:04 | |
I had a darling funny brother, we had a housekeeper who was a riot. | 0:23:04 | 0:23:10 | |
And a precious mother and father, and a handsome beau | 0:23:10 | 0:23:15 | |
'named Gordon MacRae. And I adored him.' | 0:23:15 | 0:23:18 | |
-Oh, William, I had a wonderful time. -So did I, Marjorie. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:22 | |
And think, we might never have met if you hadn't taken a shot at me! | 0:23:22 | 0:23:25 | |
Oh, don't joke about that, I might have killed you! | 0:23:25 | 0:23:28 | |
What's one life, more or less, when all of Europe is bathed in blood? | 0:23:28 | 0:23:32 | |
Won't you come in and have a nice cold glass of buttermilk? | 0:23:32 | 0:23:36 | |
Remember when he sang Just One Girl? That lovely, lovely ballad. | 0:23:36 | 0:23:41 | |
And it was snowing, and he was coming over to my house for our date, to pick me up. | 0:23:41 | 0:23:46 | |
I think he was one of THE best singers ever, ever, ever. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:51 | |
# Just one girl | 0:23:51 | 0:23:55 | |
# Only just one girl | 0:23:55 | 0:23:58 | |
# There are others, I know | 0:23:58 | 0:24:01 | |
# But they're not my pearl. # | 0:24:01 | 0:24:05 | |
'Ah, when I see those movies, I laugh all the way through, remembering. | 0:24:05 | 0:24:11 | |
'They were sweet movies.' | 0:24:11 | 0:24:12 | |
# I'll be happy for ever | 0:24:12 | 0:24:16 | |
# With just one girl | 0:24:16 | 0:24:20 | |
# One girl | 0:24:20 | 0:24:23 | |
# One girl. # | 0:24:23 | 0:24:27 | |
Well! | 0:24:27 | 0:24:29 | |
My girl. | 0:24:29 | 0:24:31 | |
Doris was creating the image of the girls next door. | 0:24:31 | 0:24:35 | |
And every girl next door wanted to be like Doris. | 0:24:35 | 0:24:38 | |
She was wonderfully funny, and sympathetic and warm, | 0:24:38 | 0:24:41 | |
and she was tender, and she had everything that they wanted to be. | 0:24:41 | 0:24:45 | |
She was part of that whole '50s sense of optimism, and going forward, | 0:24:45 | 0:24:50 | |
and cheerfulness, cheerleader cheerfulness, and she was a tomboy. | 0:24:50 | 0:24:55 | |
Wait till I get out from under! | 0:24:55 | 0:24:59 | |
Here, I'll help you. There we go. | 0:24:59 | 0:25:02 | |
She was also resisting mightily feminine passivity | 0:25:02 | 0:25:06 | |
and all the various burdens that the '50s culture imposed on her, | 0:25:06 | 0:25:11 | |
so to me, she was a radical, somewhat revolutionary figure. | 0:25:11 | 0:25:16 | |
We're OK now. I got her going. | 0:25:16 | 0:25:18 | |
Yeah(!) | 0:25:19 | 0:25:21 | |
-Here, let me help you. -It's getting cold. | 0:25:22 | 0:25:25 | |
Gee, Margie, you ruined your favourite dress! | 0:25:25 | 0:25:27 | |
Uh-uh. My favourite dress is the one you saw me in this afternoon! | 0:25:27 | 0:25:32 | |
Now, Marjorie, I thought we settled all that. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:35 | |
-You even said you'd be happy to wait till I got a job! -I'm only teasing. | 0:25:35 | 0:25:40 | |
But you know something. I was just thinking. | 0:25:40 | 0:25:43 | |
We'd only have to wait half as long if I had a job and was saving along with you. | 0:25:43 | 0:25:48 | |
The business world's a man's world, and women have no right forsaking their sacred heritage. | 0:25:48 | 0:25:54 | |
Now they're even meddling in politics! | 0:25:54 | 0:25:56 | |
'To me, Doris Day is a symbol of female energy,' | 0:25:56 | 0:25:59 | |
trying to tell us always with the image, | 0:25:59 | 0:26:02 | |
what we can do - don't get downhearted, | 0:26:02 | 0:26:07 | |
don't let difficulties bog you, but bounce on. | 0:26:07 | 0:26:11 | |
# We'll be home tonight by the light of the silvery moon | 0:26:11 | 0:26:15 | |
# And my heart's a-thumpin' like a mandolin pluckin' a tune... # | 0:26:15 | 0:26:19 | |
Calamity Jane was an adventurous departure for Doris and a rousing success. | 0:26:19 | 0:26:24 | |
Calamity Jane is probably my favourite movie, | 0:26:26 | 0:26:29 | |
because that's the real me. | 0:26:29 | 0:26:31 | |
When I was a little girl, I was a tomboy, I loved climbing trees and skating, | 0:26:31 | 0:26:36 | |
and doing all the things that the boys did, yet I loved dolls. | 0:26:36 | 0:26:40 | |
So I'm a half and half mixture. | 0:26:40 | 0:26:44 | |
Yeah, there is something there, a crisp androgynous something | 0:26:44 | 0:26:48 | |
that is nice, really nice. | 0:26:48 | 0:26:52 | |
She has backbone, | 0:26:52 | 0:26:54 | |
and spunk, which I think give her a kind of stiffness in the mind. | 0:26:54 | 0:27:00 | |
Hey, wait a minute! You no-good... | 0:27:00 | 0:27:05 | |
You talk too much. | 0:27:05 | 0:27:07 | |
# In the summer, you're the winter | 0:27:07 | 0:27:09 | |
# In the finger, you're the splinter | 0:27:09 | 0:27:12 | |
# In the banquet, you're the stew | 0:27:12 | 0:27:14 | |
# Say, I could do without you | 0:27:14 | 0:27:17 | |
# In the garden, you're the gopher | 0:27:17 | 0:27:19 | |
# In the Levi's, you're the loafer | 0:27:19 | 0:27:22 | |
# Like an overturned canoe | 0:27:22 | 0:27:24 | |
# Well, I can do without you | 0:27:24 | 0:27:27 | |
# You can go to Philadelphia | 0:27:27 | 0:27:30 | |
# Take a hack to Hackensack | 0:27:30 | 0:27:32 | |
# Hey, I'll never ring a bell fer yer | 0:27:32 | 0:27:35 | |
# Or yell fer yer to come back | 0:27:35 | 0:27:37 | |
# In the question, you're the why | 0:27:37 | 0:27:40 | |
# In the ointment, you're the fly | 0:27:40 | 0:27:42 | |
# So I know some things are indispensable, like a buck or two | 0:27:42 | 0:27:48 | |
# If there is one thing I can do without, I can do without you! # | 0:27:48 | 0:27:51 | |
I'm always looking for insights into the real Doris Day, | 0:27:51 | 0:27:56 | |
because I'm stuck with this infatuation, | 0:27:56 | 0:27:58 | |
and need to explain it to myself. | 0:27:58 | 0:28:02 | |
I do think she is a terrific singer, | 0:28:02 | 0:28:05 | |
you feel this is a kind of ideal woman, singing these words. | 0:28:05 | 0:28:10 | |
# Now I shout it | 0:28:10 | 0:28:15 | |
# From the highest hill | 0:28:15 | 0:28:20 | |
# Even told the golden daffodils | 0:28:21 | 0:28:30 | |
# At last | 0:28:30 | 0:28:34 | |
# My heart's an open door | 0:28:34 | 0:28:41 | |
# And my secret love's no secret | 0:28:43 | 0:28:50 | |
# Any more. # | 0:28:50 | 0:28:55 | |
When I was a little kid I knew that she was a good singer, | 0:28:56 | 0:28:59 | |
but when I was in the business ten years or so | 0:28:59 | 0:29:02 | |
and I had the opportunity to work with so many different singers, | 0:29:02 | 0:29:08 | |
that's when I really appreciated how great she was as a vocalist. | 0:29:08 | 0:29:12 | |
And at this point, I really think that she and Ella Fitzgerald | 0:29:12 | 0:29:18 | |
were all by themselves in their ability to bring magic to a lyric. | 0:29:18 | 0:29:26 | |
Her instincts were so correct, her intonation is flawless, | 0:29:26 | 0:29:33 | |
she had a way of being very personal with a song, | 0:29:33 | 0:29:37 | |
so that she was absolutely perfect for the recording industry, | 0:29:37 | 0:29:40 | |
everything that she sang was absolutely to one person. | 0:29:40 | 0:29:44 | |
Her singing career was as successful as her movies, | 0:29:48 | 0:29:51 | |
and in between films, she lived in recording studios, | 0:29:51 | 0:29:54 | |
creating one gold record after another. | 0:29:54 | 0:29:57 | |
I think that Doris is a great singer. | 0:30:01 | 0:30:03 | |
I think she has got the most incredible phrasing, | 0:30:03 | 0:30:06 | |
and she can really... | 0:30:06 | 0:30:08 | |
She can make a lyric sound like it's smiling. | 0:30:08 | 0:30:12 | |
She can make a record sound like there's a smile, | 0:30:12 | 0:30:14 | |
or there's some kind of a tear behind it, | 0:30:14 | 0:30:17 | |
she can really create a visual effect, I think, with an audio art. | 0:30:17 | 0:30:23 | |
I think the idea of internalising love songs, | 0:30:23 | 0:30:28 | |
so it almost has a dreamy quality, is something that carried over to another generation entirely. | 0:30:28 | 0:30:34 | |
Love Me or Leave Me was Doris's first movie away from Warner Brothers, | 0:30:41 | 0:30:45 | |
and her husband Marty Melcher's first success in his new role as her personal manager. | 0:30:45 | 0:30:50 | |
Her co-star was the great James Cagney, | 0:30:53 | 0:30:56 | |
who played Marty Snyder, a two-bit Chicago gangster | 0:30:56 | 0:30:59 | |
obsessed with the career of Ruth Etting, | 0:30:59 | 0:31:01 | |
a singer who had clawed her way from cheap dance halls to centre stage. | 0:31:01 | 0:31:07 | |
I had made many musicals at Warner Brothers, | 0:31:10 | 0:31:13 | |
but this was an extravaganza, this was going to be a biggie. | 0:31:13 | 0:31:17 | |
And it was thrilling to me. | 0:31:17 | 0:31:20 | |
But I wondered if I would be right for that particular part. | 0:31:20 | 0:31:25 | |
Because I was always considered the girl next door. | 0:31:26 | 0:31:30 | |
You made us a nice little scandal tonight. | 0:31:30 | 0:31:33 | |
Fred Taylor's in hospital with a broken jaw! | 0:31:33 | 0:31:35 | |
He's lucky he's alive, so what? | 0:31:35 | 0:31:37 | |
-So Zigfield doesn't want me in the show, not if you're around! -That don't hurt my feelings! | 0:31:37 | 0:31:41 | |
-He's a bigger jerk than I figured if he lets you go for free! -Only I'm not going. | 0:31:41 | 0:31:47 | |
I was a hit tonight. A big hit. It's a chance to be somebody. | 0:31:47 | 0:31:51 | |
It's the Follies, it's Broadway! | 0:31:51 | 0:31:53 | |
It's a chance to meet decent people and to make friends. | 0:31:53 | 0:31:56 | |
It's what I've wanted and worked for, why should I leave it? What sense does it make? | 0:31:56 | 0:32:00 | |
-It doesn't have to make sense, it's the way it's going to be! -You can't tell me what to do! | 0:32:00 | 0:32:04 | |
-I can! -Marty! -You think you own me? -That's exactly right! | 0:32:04 | 0:32:09 | |
'You watched her grow up in that movie, and the depth,' | 0:32:09 | 0:32:13 | |
I think that's the first time we saw real depth in this lady, | 0:32:13 | 0:32:16 | |
she went much beyond that top-level or even the one underneath, she went all the way down. | 0:32:16 | 0:32:22 | |
-I'm right where I want to be. -And I ain't good enough. -I didn't say that! | 0:32:22 | 0:32:26 | |
-Well, say it! Have some guts, say it! -All right! You don't belong here! | 0:32:26 | 0:32:31 | |
I can't help it, it's the way you act! | 0:32:31 | 0:32:34 | |
The way I've always acted, I never heard you holler! | 0:32:34 | 0:32:37 | |
It's rotten, dirty, and I hate it! | 0:32:37 | 0:32:40 | |
'There aren't enough words and accolades for Jimmy Cagney,' | 0:32:40 | 0:32:44 | |
as far as I'm concerned. | 0:32:44 | 0:32:46 | |
And we had a great time working together, | 0:32:46 | 0:32:48 | |
he's the most professional actor I've ever met. | 0:32:48 | 0:32:53 | |
Jimmy Cagney returned the compliment. | 0:32:53 | 0:32:56 | |
He once said "Doris Day perfectly illustrates my definition of good acting. | 0:32:56 | 0:33:00 | |
"Just plant yourself, look the other actor in the eye and tell them the truth." | 0:33:00 | 0:33:05 | |
You got to give her credit. The girl can sing. | 0:33:06 | 0:33:09 | |
About that, I never was wrong. | 0:33:11 | 0:33:13 | |
# I want your love but I don't want to borrow | 0:33:17 | 0:33:24 | |
# To have it today and to give back tomorrow... # | 0:33:24 | 0:33:31 | |
I think the same thing applies to Doris's acting as her singing, | 0:33:31 | 0:33:35 | |
it was seamless. I don't think she was given the credit she deserved. | 0:33:35 | 0:33:40 | |
# ..no love for nobody else... # | 0:33:40 | 0:33:48 | |
Love Me or Leave Me was both a critical and popular hit, | 0:33:48 | 0:33:51 | |
which firmly established Marty Melcher as the guiding force of Doris's career. | 0:33:51 | 0:33:56 | |
We worked very well together. But I wasn't with anyone but Marty. | 0:33:56 | 0:34:00 | |
I said, "I would like to be with so and so agency, or at that agency, | 0:34:00 | 0:34:04 | |
"they have so many great writers, producers and directors, | 0:34:04 | 0:34:08 | |
"and I'd like to be able to go with that, | 0:34:08 | 0:34:13 | |
"and be a part of one of those great projects." | 0:34:13 | 0:34:16 | |
"No, no, no. You're with me, and that's it." | 0:34:16 | 0:34:20 | |
I really felt that I should have had another agent. | 0:34:20 | 0:34:25 | |
Not my husband. | 0:34:25 | 0:34:27 | |
It really is not good for a relationship. | 0:34:27 | 0:34:31 | |
The romance goes out the window | 0:34:33 | 0:34:35 | |
when you suddenly feel you're married to your father. | 0:34:35 | 0:34:41 | |
But thanks to the persistence of Marty, Doris travelled to Morocco | 0:34:41 | 0:34:44 | |
to star in Alfred Hitchcock's The Man Who Knew Too Much. It was to become a classic. | 0:34:44 | 0:34:48 | |
I didn't want to go to North Africa. I love London, | 0:34:48 | 0:34:52 | |
but I do not like North Africa. | 0:34:52 | 0:34:54 | |
But we went, and of course I kept saying to Marty, | 0:34:54 | 0:35:00 | |
"Why doesn't Mr Hitchcock call Grace Kelly?" | 0:35:00 | 0:35:04 | |
And Marty was ready to clobber me, because he said, | 0:35:04 | 0:35:07 | |
"The script is so wonderful, you should be so grateful to be doing it," you know... | 0:35:07 | 0:35:13 | |
Anyway, we get to North Africa, and the first day of shooting, | 0:35:13 | 0:35:17 | |
I look around, and I see this mistreatment of the animals, and I couldn't bear it. | 0:35:17 | 0:35:24 | |
And they worked it out. | 0:35:24 | 0:35:26 | |
And all of the horses and their birds and the animals we used, | 0:35:26 | 0:35:31 | |
they were fat as toads by the time we left! | 0:35:31 | 0:35:34 | |
Doris plays a doctor's wife in this tale of espionage, murder and a kidnapped child. | 0:35:34 | 0:35:41 | |
Something like Hitchcock's The Man Who Knew Too Much, | 0:35:41 | 0:35:43 | |
which is one of her great films, this neurotic underpinning, this edge of hysteria, | 0:35:43 | 0:35:49 | |
and there's one scene, | 0:35:49 | 0:35:50 | |
they've just found out about the disappearance of a child. | 0:35:50 | 0:35:53 | |
You see the whole picture of this very traumatic marriage. | 0:35:53 | 0:35:58 | |
You know what happens when you get excited and nervous. Do me a favour. | 0:35:58 | 0:36:02 | |
Six months ago you told me I took too many pills. | 0:36:02 | 0:36:05 | |
Six months ago you weren't a witness to a murder. Now, come on. Sit down. | 0:36:05 | 0:36:10 | |
SHE WAILS | 0:36:10 | 0:36:13 | |
-Sit down. -Why didn't you tell me? | 0:36:13 | 0:36:18 | |
-I wasn't sure until now! -You did it! | 0:36:18 | 0:36:21 | |
-Let go of me! -Sit down. | 0:36:21 | 0:36:25 | |
Lie down. | 0:36:27 | 0:36:30 | |
Oh, dear God. | 0:36:32 | 0:36:34 | |
I want my boy! | 0:36:34 | 0:36:37 | |
Please, please stop it. | 0:36:37 | 0:36:40 | |
Where has he been? | 0:36:40 | 0:36:42 | |
Forgive me. Forgive me. | 0:36:45 | 0:36:49 | |
'It was difficult.' | 0:36:50 | 0:36:51 | |
But, you see, the way I really think, that when you need something, | 0:36:51 | 0:36:59 | |
when you have to draw on whatever, | 0:36:59 | 0:37:03 | |
it's there. What you need is there. | 0:37:03 | 0:37:09 | |
And I know that. I'm very positive about that. | 0:37:09 | 0:37:12 | |
And it just happened. | 0:37:12 | 0:37:14 | |
SHE SCREAMS | 0:37:28 | 0:37:31 | |
I think that Doris Day is probably the most underrated, underappreciated actress | 0:37:39 | 0:37:44 | |
to ever come out of Hollywood, because she can sing, | 0:37:44 | 0:37:47 | |
she has a presence, she has personality, she can be sexy, | 0:37:47 | 0:37:51 | |
in a way that is almost too much to deal with, | 0:37:51 | 0:37:53 | |
you almost have the sense she had to be narrowed down in some way to make her more acceptable. | 0:37:53 | 0:37:58 | |
She's a many-faceted lady, she has terribly deep feelings, | 0:37:58 | 0:38:05 | |
the roots go all the way down to the centre of the planet. And she has... | 0:38:05 | 0:38:10 | |
there's a vulnerability. When you've been that kind of a superstar, | 0:38:10 | 0:38:14 | |
if you can maintain a vulnerability to the rest of the world, that says something about you. | 0:38:14 | 0:38:19 | |
In The Man Who Knew Too Much, Doris gave the world an Oscar-winning song. | 0:38:21 | 0:38:26 | |
I thought that it would make a good record, you know, for children, but I wouldn't buy it. | 0:38:26 | 0:38:32 | |
And, oh, I ate those words! Everybody bought it. | 0:38:32 | 0:38:36 | |
# Que sera, sera | 0:38:36 | 0:38:38 | |
# Whatever will be, will be... # | 0:38:39 | 0:38:42 | |
I don't see my films. | 0:38:42 | 0:38:44 | |
I see all the wrong things and I turn it off. | 0:38:44 | 0:38:47 | |
But sometimes a song will come on the radio that I've done, | 0:38:47 | 0:38:51 | |
a long time ago, you know, and I think, "Ah..." | 0:38:51 | 0:38:56 | |
And I'll listen, really listen. | 0:38:56 | 0:38:59 | |
And I'll feel so good inside, you know. | 0:38:59 | 0:39:03 | |
I'll say, "I did it, that was good." | 0:39:03 | 0:39:08 | |
# Teacher's pet | 0:39:08 | 0:39:11 | |
# I want to be teacher's pet... # | 0:39:11 | 0:39:14 | |
Teacher's Pet was a new kind of role for Doris Day. | 0:39:14 | 0:39:18 | |
The pretty girl next door had become a serious journalism teacher, | 0:39:18 | 0:39:22 | |
surprised by the romantic manoeuvring of a crusty newspaper editor. | 0:39:22 | 0:39:25 | |
-Oh! -Oh, sorry. -Come in! | 0:39:25 | 0:39:28 | |
Mr Gallagher, I'm so excited about this piece. | 0:39:28 | 0:39:30 | |
-Well, thanks. -It's a brilliant job. | 0:39:30 | 0:39:32 | |
But, Mr Gallagher, you do think that someday you might consider | 0:39:32 | 0:39:36 | |
-giving up what you've been doing? -Someday? | 0:39:36 | 0:39:39 | |
I'm giving it up right now. | 0:39:39 | 0:39:41 | |
I can see I've been wasting my time. | 0:39:41 | 0:39:43 | |
Mr Gallagher, I'm delighted! | 0:39:43 | 0:39:47 | |
We'll shake on it. | 0:39:47 | 0:39:49 | |
Mr Gallagher! | 0:39:52 | 0:39:54 | |
Oh! | 0:39:57 | 0:39:58 | |
So long, Professor. | 0:39:58 | 0:39:59 | |
The change that came in Doris's career | 0:40:15 | 0:40:19 | |
was happily coincidental, career-wise, | 0:40:19 | 0:40:22 | |
to what was happening to all of us. | 0:40:22 | 0:40:24 | |
We were all going through changes. | 0:40:24 | 0:40:26 | |
We were going from the '50s, where everything was Gloriosky Zero, | 0:40:26 | 0:40:30 | |
to the '60s, where...I mean, all kinds of changes | 0:40:30 | 0:40:34 | |
took place that are still taking place. | 0:40:34 | 0:40:36 | |
We're still feeling the residuals of that. | 0:40:36 | 0:40:39 | |
I didn't want to hurt you any more than I already had. | 0:40:39 | 0:40:41 | |
What you did to me is unimportant, | 0:40:43 | 0:40:46 | |
but what you did to the other students is inexcusable. | 0:40:46 | 0:40:49 | |
They pay their tuition, which they can ill-afford, | 0:40:49 | 0:40:52 | |
and after working hard at other jobs all day long, | 0:40:52 | 0:40:55 | |
they study or they come to class, because they'll sacrifice anything to gain a little more knowledge. | 0:40:55 | 0:41:00 | |
-Oh, now wait... -Oh, I don't expect you to understand, Mr Gannon. | 0:41:00 | 0:41:05 | |
You're stupid...and I think you're proud of it. | 0:41:05 | 0:41:09 | |
And this makes you cruel. | 0:41:10 | 0:41:12 | |
Now, may I leave if you're finished? | 0:41:14 | 0:41:16 | |
Are you finished now? | 0:41:26 | 0:41:28 | |
I knew that Doris had something more than what she was doing, | 0:41:28 | 0:41:32 | |
and when the script of Pillow Talk was presented to me, the idea, | 0:41:32 | 0:41:36 | |
that is, there was nobody but Doris. | 0:41:36 | 0:41:38 | |
Doris... Who else could play what she could play? | 0:41:38 | 0:41:41 | |
Who else could be chic and sophisticated and stunning and lovely and funny and all that? | 0:41:41 | 0:41:46 | |
And that was Doris Day, and I decided to change her image completely. | 0:41:46 | 0:41:51 | |
This career girl had everything but love. | 0:41:51 | 0:41:55 | |
This bachelor had nothing else but. | 0:41:55 | 0:41:57 | |
They had absolutely nothing in common, except a party line. | 0:41:57 | 0:42:00 | |
Would you please get off this line? | 0:42:00 | 0:42:03 | |
And then the wooing got frantic. | 0:42:03 | 0:42:06 | |
If I may be so bold, I said, "Doris, you have the wildest ass in Hollywood, and you got to show it! | 0:42:14 | 0:42:19 | |
"Guys want to see it, and girls want to be like you, and if you change your image, maybe they will." | 0:42:19 | 0:42:24 | |
-INTERNAL MONOLOGUE: -So that's the other end of your party line. | 0:42:24 | 0:42:27 | |
And so I called Jean Louis, who did her clothes, | 0:42:27 | 0:42:31 | |
and Larry Germain, who did wonderful hairdos, | 0:42:31 | 0:42:34 | |
and Bud Westmore, the make-up man, and I said, "Look, we got to change this gal. | 0:42:34 | 0:42:39 | |
"She is gorgeous, stunning, something very special, and the audience doesn't know about it yet!" | 0:42:39 | 0:42:44 | |
We wanted Rock Hudson for it, and he was afraid to do it, because he said, | 0:42:44 | 0:42:47 | |
"I can't do comedy, I don't know anything about comedy, I've never done it." | 0:42:47 | 0:42:52 | |
And...I said to him, you know, "The script is funny, you don't have to worry. | 0:42:52 | 0:42:57 | |
"When you have funny lines, you're funny." | 0:42:57 | 0:43:00 | |
Hello, hello, hello! Is anybody on this line? | 0:43:00 | 0:43:02 | |
Yes, I am on the line, would you please get off it? | 0:43:02 | 0:43:05 | |
All right, but you're on my half-hour. | 0:43:05 | 0:43:06 | |
Urr! | 0:43:06 | 0:43:08 | |
Rex? Rex, are you there? | 0:43:08 | 0:43:10 | |
Er, yes, ma'am, who was that? | 0:43:10 | 0:43:13 | |
Oh, my party line, a horrible little man. | 0:43:13 | 0:43:15 | |
He sure isn't very well-mannered. | 0:43:15 | 0:43:18 | |
Mannered? He isn't even worth talking about! | 0:43:18 | 0:43:21 | |
Now...what were you saying? | 0:43:21 | 0:43:27 | |
Uh, I'll be stopping by about 7:30. | 0:43:27 | 0:43:31 | |
All right. That'll be fine. | 0:43:31 | 0:43:34 | |
-Uh, Miss Morrow? -Uh-huh? | 0:43:34 | 0:43:37 | |
I've never been much on making fancy speeches, | 0:43:37 | 0:43:40 | |
but I get a nice warm feeling being near you, ma'am. | 0:43:40 | 0:43:44 | |
It's like...like being around a pot-bellied stove on a frosty morning. | 0:43:44 | 0:43:50 | |
Oh, Rex! | 0:43:55 | 0:43:57 | |
What a lovely thing to say. | 0:43:57 | 0:44:00 | |
Doris and Rock had a wonderful chemistry, | 0:44:00 | 0:44:04 | |
and she helped Rock, she made him feel easy. | 0:44:04 | 0:44:06 | |
In fact, I think she was the pivot of why the entire picture worked, | 0:44:06 | 0:44:11 | |
because we all watched what she was doing, | 0:44:11 | 0:44:14 | |
and what she was doing was a language to all of us. | 0:44:14 | 0:44:17 | |
She didn't know how good she was! | 0:44:17 | 0:44:18 | |
She just knew she could do it. | 0:44:18 | 0:44:20 | |
And if it was that easy, it couldn't be much, I guess she figured. It... | 0:44:20 | 0:44:25 | |
It isn't that easy for the rest of us! | 0:44:25 | 0:44:28 | |
She was a natural. | 0:44:28 | 0:44:30 | |
SHE SOBS | 0:44:30 | 0:44:33 | |
'You know, we had a scene where she was crying. | 0:44:36 | 0:44:39 | |
'We're in the car and she's crying, then she's crying some more, | 0:44:39 | 0:44:42 | |
'crying in a different way and so forth.' | 0:44:42 | 0:44:44 | |
Now, everything you see on the screen they shot seven or eight times to get the one take they want, | 0:44:44 | 0:44:50 | |
and so all told there must have been 50 takes of her crying. | 0:44:50 | 0:44:55 | |
Jan...you've been crying for 60 miles now. | 0:44:55 | 0:45:01 | |
I-I know, but... | 0:45:01 | 0:45:03 | |
'And I was there when she was doing it.' | 0:45:03 | 0:45:05 | |
The director, Mike Gordon, would say, "Now, cry all out, you're just sobbing!" | 0:45:05 | 0:45:10 | |
SHE CRIES | 0:45:10 | 0:45:12 | |
'She would do it.' | 0:45:12 | 0:45:14 | |
That's all right, come on. | 0:45:14 | 0:45:16 | |
'He'd say, "Now you've calmed down, you're not crying any more,' | 0:45:18 | 0:45:21 | |
"but every now and again like a little baby, one sob comes." | 0:45:21 | 0:45:26 | |
She could do it! Real tears just came, she was remarkable. | 0:45:26 | 0:45:31 | |
SHE CRIES | 0:45:31 | 0:45:33 | |
I think that for every generation... | 0:45:33 | 0:45:35 | |
you...idolise people and you emulate and you are inspired by, | 0:45:37 | 0:45:42 | |
and that's what makes you want to be what you are, | 0:45:42 | 0:45:46 | |
that's what makes you want to be an actress or, you know, | 0:45:46 | 0:45:49 | |
an airplane pilot or an astronaut. | 0:45:49 | 0:45:50 | |
You have these idols, and she was my first, and I wanted to be Doris Day. | 0:45:50 | 0:45:56 | |
In all beehives, there are workers and there are drones. | 0:45:58 | 0:46:03 | |
This is a worker. | 0:46:08 | 0:46:09 | |
-Thank you. -'The point about Doris Day is she was a working girl.' | 0:46:09 | 0:46:13 | |
She would have come to New York on her own, without any connections, | 0:46:13 | 0:46:17 | |
gotten herself a job through her own brains and ambition, | 0:46:17 | 0:46:20 | |
and had risen in the ranks of whatever advertising agency or whatever. | 0:46:20 | 0:46:25 | |
And she was there not to get a man. | 0:46:25 | 0:46:28 | |
She was there because she loved working, she was good at it. | 0:46:28 | 0:46:31 | |
And this to me was very exciting. | 0:46:31 | 0:46:33 | |
This was my image of the possibilities for women | 0:46:33 | 0:46:36 | |
suddenly opening up, of being able to come to New York and get a job, | 0:46:36 | 0:46:40 | |
and that's what people were doing in the '60s, and she really, in a sense, led the way. | 0:46:40 | 0:46:44 | |
I wanted to be her in every movie she was ever in. | 0:46:44 | 0:46:48 | |
I think that's the sign of a successful actress and a successful movie, | 0:46:48 | 0:46:51 | |
that you want to be that person, you want to live that life, | 0:46:51 | 0:46:55 | |
and that's the biggest...validation I can give her | 0:46:55 | 0:47:00 | |
is that she always made me feel like I wanted to be that person. | 0:47:00 | 0:47:03 | |
I consider her one of the greatest reactresses in the business. | 0:47:03 | 0:47:07 | |
No-one reacts to a line the way she does. | 0:47:07 | 0:47:09 | |
Nobody gets angrier better than Doris Day. | 0:47:11 | 0:47:14 | |
SHE YELLS FRUSTRATEDLY | 0:47:14 | 0:47:16 | |
You listen to me! No alcoholic beverage, no drug known to science, | 0:47:16 | 0:47:22 | |
no torture yet devised could induce me to stay married to you! | 0:47:22 | 0:47:26 | |
-That's it, let's discuss it. -Uh! | 0:47:26 | 0:47:29 | |
-I have a job interview, and I have to go looking like this. -He doesn't care. | 0:47:29 | 0:47:33 | |
Oh... | 0:47:33 | 0:47:34 | |
Please... | 0:47:42 | 0:47:43 | |
-Oh! -Julie, please... -I was right! | 0:47:43 | 0:47:47 | |
You are having an affair! | 0:47:47 | 0:47:48 | |
-Yes, and I'm a rat. -Oh, you are! -Julie, please! | 0:47:48 | 0:47:51 | |
SHE SCREAMS Shhh! | 0:47:52 | 0:47:53 | |
Oh, my darling. Oh, my darling, are you having another nightmare? | 0:47:58 | 0:48:02 | |
You'll go to jail for this. | 0:48:02 | 0:48:05 | |
-Now, Carol... -Don't you touch me! | 0:48:05 | 0:48:07 | |
SHE SCREAMS Will you listen to reason?! | 0:48:07 | 0:48:10 | |
Let me tell you something, Mr Webster. | 0:48:10 | 0:48:13 | |
I wish I were a man right now. | 0:48:13 | 0:48:15 | |
Keep trying, I think you'll make it. | 0:48:15 | 0:48:17 | |
SHE SCREAMS | 0:48:17 | 0:48:18 | |
Whatever happened to my rights as a woman?! | 0:48:18 | 0:48:21 | |
But, Judy, what's wrong? | 0:48:21 | 0:48:23 | |
Ask Linda Bullard! | 0:48:23 | 0:48:26 | |
What are you doing?! | 0:48:26 | 0:48:27 | |
-I am filling this suitcase with my clothes! -Oh, really? | 0:48:27 | 0:48:32 | |
And I'm going to continue to do it until you give up this asinine career and go back to being a wife! | 0:48:32 | 0:48:37 | |
-Go back to being a wife?! -Yes! -That's mine, give me that! | 0:48:37 | 0:48:41 | |
Gloria! Ooh! | 0:48:43 | 0:48:46 | |
Ooh! | 0:48:46 | 0:48:48 | |
Ooh! Ooh! | 0:48:49 | 0:48:51 | |
Oh, what?! | 0:48:51 | 0:48:52 | |
Ooh! Oh! | 0:48:52 | 0:48:54 | |
Oh! | 0:48:54 | 0:48:56 | |
There's a rhythm to comedy, and if you put one extra syllable or extra word in, you kill the laugh. | 0:48:56 | 0:49:02 | |
And Doris had a kind of an innate sense of that. | 0:49:02 | 0:49:05 | |
What are you doing? | 0:49:06 | 0:49:08 | |
I'm kissing you. Do you mind? | 0:49:08 | 0:49:11 | |
Not if you don't. | 0:49:11 | 0:49:14 | |
Well, relax. I'll keep you informed of my every move. | 0:49:14 | 0:49:18 | |
You have a beautiful back. | 0:49:20 | 0:49:23 | |
My mother always made me sit up straight. | 0:49:23 | 0:49:25 | |
I'm grateful to your mother. | 0:49:25 | 0:49:27 | |
And such attractive shoulders. | 0:49:27 | 0:49:30 | |
Swimming was compulsory at high school. | 0:49:30 | 0:49:33 | |
I'm grateful to the public school system. | 0:49:33 | 0:49:36 | |
There's so much to be grateful for | 0:49:36 | 0:49:39 | |
and so little time to be grateful. | 0:49:39 | 0:49:41 | |
There was a kind of laughter at Doris Day, | 0:49:56 | 0:49:59 | |
at the image of the perennial virgin, but it was a nervous laughter. | 0:49:59 | 0:50:02 | |
She was testing her men, putting them through their paces to see if they were worthy of her. | 0:50:02 | 0:50:07 | |
She was their...their shining star, | 0:50:07 | 0:50:10 | |
she was something that they could reach for. | 0:50:10 | 0:50:13 | |
Thousands and thousands of people all over the world | 0:50:13 | 0:50:16 | |
took Doris Day to their hearts. | 0:50:16 | 0:50:19 | |
And it was Doris Day who did it, she did it herself, believe me. | 0:50:19 | 0:50:22 | |
What do stars mean to us after all, | 0:50:27 | 0:50:29 | |
but they're kind of an indication of what people can be, | 0:50:29 | 0:50:33 | |
that we're...yes, lost and poor and in this small town | 0:50:33 | 0:50:38 | |
and our socks don't match, but nevertheless there are people up there | 0:50:38 | 0:50:42 | |
who are enacting humanity in this dazzling way, | 0:50:42 | 0:50:45 | |
and she was one of them, | 0:50:45 | 0:50:47 | |
so even to me she was a kind of directive image! | 0:50:47 | 0:50:51 | |
Not that I want to be exactly like Doris Day, but I'd like to be that good. | 0:50:51 | 0:50:54 | |
There's a man in Mommy's bed! | 0:50:54 | 0:50:57 | |
After a string a successful comedies in the '60s, Doris Day made what was to be her final film in 1968. | 0:51:01 | 0:51:09 | |
# Hallelujah! # | 0:51:09 | 0:51:11 | |
I made a film called With Six You Get Eggroll | 0:51:11 | 0:51:14 | |
that I really liked very much. | 0:51:14 | 0:51:17 | |
It was Marty's last film. | 0:51:17 | 0:51:19 | |
And I enjoyed that so much, and I really enjoyed working with Brian Keith, and... | 0:51:19 | 0:51:24 | |
That was sort of me, in that I felt strongly about that. | 0:51:24 | 0:51:29 | |
-Well? -Nothing, I'm just trying to picture you running that lumber yard. | 0:51:29 | 0:51:34 | |
Well, I'm a whizz on a bandsaw if that interests you. | 0:51:34 | 0:51:38 | |
Can you run a home, too, take care of those kids and everything? | 0:51:38 | 0:51:42 | |
Now, that's difficult. Oh! | 0:51:42 | 0:51:44 | |
You ever find any time for yourself? | 0:51:44 | 0:51:46 | |
I manage. I have a housekeeper, Mrs Benson by name. | 0:51:46 | 0:51:49 | |
-Oh, yeah, I met her! -And it all works. | 0:51:49 | 0:51:53 | |
'Marty became ill on that film.' | 0:51:55 | 0:51:58 | |
And, uh... I went through a terrible year, you know, when he passed away. | 0:51:59 | 0:52:06 | |
I didn't think I'd ever get over it. | 0:52:07 | 0:52:10 | |
It was after that death, when there had to be an accounting, | 0:52:10 | 0:52:13 | |
that it was discovered that all of her funds were gone, | 0:52:13 | 0:52:16 | |
that she was 500,000 in debt. | 0:52:16 | 0:52:18 | |
It was unreal, what happened to her. | 0:52:18 | 0:52:21 | |
To be number one in the world for ten years | 0:52:21 | 0:52:23 | |
and then suddenly find out that you didn't have anything? | 0:52:23 | 0:52:26 | |
She really thought she had 20 million when her husband died. | 0:52:26 | 0:52:30 | |
She didn't have anything. | 0:52:30 | 0:52:31 | |
Marty Melcher had entrusted most of Doris's earnings with an attorney and business partner who, | 0:52:31 | 0:52:36 | |
she charged, squandered the funds in reckless and self-serving investments. | 0:52:36 | 0:52:40 | |
Doris insisted on a lawsuit against him, persevered, | 0:52:40 | 0:52:45 | |
and in the end won a tremendous judgment against the lawyer. | 0:52:45 | 0:52:49 | |
I just knew that justice would prevail, I've known it all along, | 0:52:49 | 0:52:53 | |
and I was assured of that this morning. | 0:52:53 | 0:52:55 | |
Do you think almost 23 million is enough? | 0:52:55 | 0:52:58 | |
Oh, my goodness, it's... Re-living all of it just destroyed me. | 0:52:58 | 0:53:03 | |
'We went through hell for seven years in court. | 0:53:03 | 0:53:07 | |
'But I don't think Marty meant to do it.' | 0:53:07 | 0:53:09 | |
I think... | 0:53:09 | 0:53:11 | |
I think that he just trusted the wrong person...completely, | 0:53:11 | 0:53:18 | |
and found himself really in trouble. | 0:53:18 | 0:53:22 | |
At one point, she was spending 40,000 a month for legal fees | 0:53:22 | 0:53:27 | |
to try to get back some of the money that was hers. | 0:53:27 | 0:53:30 | |
She decided she'd do television, | 0:53:30 | 0:53:33 | |
so she plunged into The Doris Day Show, worked 18 hours a day, | 0:53:33 | 0:53:37 | |
did about five, six years of those, restored all of her finances, | 0:53:37 | 0:53:41 | |
and she's not only a survivor but she is a happy survivor. | 0:53:41 | 0:53:46 | |
# Que sera, sera | 0:53:46 | 0:53:50 | |
# Whatever will be, will be... | 0:53:50 | 0:53:54 | |
'Thank God I had that series, because that paid the lawyers,' | 0:53:54 | 0:53:59 | |
and we went seven years with that, and... | 0:53:59 | 0:54:02 | |
So that was a blessing, that was a real godsend. | 0:54:02 | 0:54:08 | |
She may look delicate, but she's a strong, self-sufficient, | 0:54:08 | 0:54:12 | |
intelligent lady. | 0:54:12 | 0:54:14 | |
She is a great actress, she's a great singer and a...a humanitarian. | 0:54:14 | 0:54:21 | |
Doris now lives in the tranquillity of the Carmel Valley in California, | 0:54:21 | 0:54:25 | |
close to her son Terry, her daughter-in-law Jacqueline and her grandson Ryan. | 0:54:25 | 0:54:29 | |
And it's here that Doris dedicates her time to her favourite cause, | 0:54:29 | 0:54:33 | |
the rights and protection of animals. | 0:54:33 | 0:54:35 | |
I just hope that I can really make it better for the animals. | 0:54:35 | 0:54:40 | |
I know I have, so far, | 0:54:40 | 0:54:43 | |
with my pet foundation. | 0:54:43 | 0:54:45 | |
And we've placed so many doggies and cats | 0:54:45 | 0:54:48 | |
in wonderful homes with terrific people, | 0:54:48 | 0:54:51 | |
and that is just thrilling to me. | 0:54:51 | 0:54:54 | |
And the Animal League, you know, if we can just... | 0:54:54 | 0:54:57 | |
get the animals out of the laboratories, I'll be very happy about that. | 0:54:57 | 0:55:00 | |
And we're trying to change the laws and make it better for the animals, make it a better world for them. | 0:55:00 | 0:55:06 | |
I don't think she has ever really thought of herself as, quote, "superstar." | 0:55:06 | 0:55:12 | |
She has chosen her way of life up in Carmel with all her animals, | 0:55:12 | 0:55:17 | |
that's been a personal choice, | 0:55:17 | 0:55:19 | |
but she doesn't go with an entourage wherever she goes, | 0:55:19 | 0:55:23 | |
she doesn't have to be in a clump of people to be impressing. | 0:55:23 | 0:55:27 | |
She's impressive without doing any of that. | 0:55:27 | 0:55:29 | |
Doris is my neighbour these days. She lives in Carmel Valley, | 0:55:29 | 0:55:33 | |
I live down in Carmel, and I see her frequently. | 0:55:33 | 0:55:36 | |
She comes to the fabulous Mission Ranch, | 0:55:36 | 0:55:41 | |
and I see her at her office, which is Safeway. | 0:55:41 | 0:55:45 | |
I just love going to the market. | 0:55:45 | 0:55:48 | |
I never had a chance to do that, you have to remember that, you see? | 0:55:48 | 0:55:51 | |
I was always working, and everything was brought to the house, delivered, | 0:55:51 | 0:55:55 | |
and so I didn't have that chance, and I really love it. | 0:55:55 | 0:55:59 | |
# I know I don't know you very well... # | 0:56:05 | 0:56:09 | |
'I'm very grateful, | 0:56:09 | 0:56:11 | |
'because I've had so many blessings.' | 0:56:11 | 0:56:14 | |
And I've had a lot of trauma in my life, | 0:56:14 | 0:56:19 | |
and I've lost so many loved ones, two-leggers and four-leggers. | 0:56:19 | 0:56:24 | |
And, uh...sometimes I feel like I can't go through it again, you know, but you do, | 0:56:27 | 0:56:33 | |
and then you say, "Well, I don't know...if there is a heaven." | 0:56:33 | 0:56:40 | |
I suppose this is heaven. | 0:56:40 | 0:56:42 | |
When everything is going well, it's heaven, isn't it? | 0:56:42 | 0:56:45 | |
It's heaven right here. | 0:56:45 | 0:56:47 | |
# As long as I am living | 0:56:47 | 0:56:50 | |
# That's how long I'll go on giving you my heart | 0:56:50 | 0:56:55 | |
# My heart | 0:56:58 | 0:57:01 | |
# If we ever get together | 0:57:01 | 0:57:06 | |
# My heart will have a head start on fate | 0:57:06 | 0:57:13 | |
# As long as I am living | 0:57:23 | 0:57:25 | |
# That's how long I'll go on giving you my heart | 0:57:25 | 0:57:31 | |
# I'm giving you my heart. # | 0:57:35 | 0:57:40 | |
