[QUOTE="Alexis, post: 123785, member: 68"] SEND ME NO FLOWERS 1964 Another Doris Day and Rock Hudson caper with Tony Randal. Again I found this genuinely funny. I don't know why I had thought I wouldn't enjoy these films. Maybe I had a preconceived idea about Doris Day? Anyways I was wrong. I love the chemistry between the two leads and it doesn't matter how silly the plot it's just a fun ride. This one revolves around the idea that hypochondriac Rock Hudson believes he is dying after a mix up at the doctors office. It's a bit Jason Colby only more kooky '60s than soapy '80s. All kinds of silliness ensues including Rock Hudson buying a cemetery plot from a very camp sales man, for himself, his wife, and her future husband. I actually laughed out loud. The film was filmed on the Universal backlot and clearly on the street where Desperate Housewives was filmed. I am almost certain that Doris Day's and Rock Hudson's house is Mary Alice Youngs house. It's one of the houses on that lot that can actually be filmed inside and it's the same basic layout for the front portion. I'm sure the back part was a studio set. You can also see a few other houses from Desperate Housewives on the street. I think it's kind of incredible that that set is there still and there's so much history attached to it. The stars that have walked that street and been in those houses. Ahhhh Hollywood! [/QUOTE]
