Please Don't Eat the Daisies (1960)

Although this movie was written by a woman, stars a woman, and was based on a bestselling essay collection by a woman, you can really tell it was made by 1950s dudes who would be horrified by the coming Women’s rights movement. Aw, I didn't want these short reviews to get heavy. Parts of this flick were cute. Doris Day sings a cute song. She wears cute and super-tight clothes. A good line was thrown in occasionally, such as "You can get awful lonesome being right." So true.
