She is a favorite at Post Apocalypic Bohemia. All of us, The Husband, Junior, Lulu, Henry, & I think that Doris Day is shamefully shrugged off as a star & a singer.
One of Hollywood’s most versatile & talented performers ever, Day conquered comedy, drama, musicals & suspense, working with master director Alfred Hitchcock on The Man Who Knew Too Much, featuring the song that would be her trademark: Que Sera Sera.
Not only bringing joy to millions of fans through her films & recordings, Day’s animal welfare work has meant even more to the 4 legged friends she has helped since her retirement from the big screen awith With 6 You Get Eggroll, in 1968.
Totally devoted to her work through the Doris Day Animal League & the Doris Day Animal Foundation in cooperation with the Humane Society, Doris Day is a treasure, onscreen and off. She is a Grammy winning recording artist, Oscar nominee, Golden Globe winner, as well as the recipient of the Cecille B. DeMille award for lifetime achievement.
Doris turns an astonishing 88 (according to some records, no one knows for sure) today!
It is darn difficult to decide on a definitive Doris Day movie or performance, the clip below from Calamity Jane captures her vibrant talent through singing, dancing & sheer spunk. I think this song deserves a place in the list of Gay Anthems, who can not relate to this song:
