Friday '58: Teacher's Pet

In which two of my favourite actors come together for a romantic comedy and I try to contain myself. 


Teacher's Pet

"A hard-nosed newspaper editor poses as a night school student in order to woo a journalism teacher who cannot stand him."

Starring: Clark Gable, Doris Day

Thoughts: I've said elsewhere that I was expecting more of a forefather to How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days or Never Been Kissed with this one, but it's not so much a straight-up romantic comedy as it is a fully-realized story that's part comedy, part drama, and takes until the last minute (like any good ole time rom-com) for the leads to get together and live happily ever after.
