Thank you Bryan and Puck for such a cheerful Doris Day 2018 New Year banner.

It is a great start to our year.

[webmaster]

Thank you all, much appreciated. It's very cold in London and getting colder. I was wondering what it would be like to be in New York, etc? Dangerous with that degree of cold and power failures. Warm thoughts!



Love her or leave her.

Beautiful Love Me or Leave Me banner. Thanks Bryan.

In Toronto last night it was 19 degrees below zero with a wind chill that made it feel like minus 24. We have experienced severe cold during December up to today. Tomorrow it is going up to 2 degrees. Normally we don't experience this type of weather until February. On the bright side there is not a germ in the air that can survive. It is always fun to see the fashionable boots dogs are wearing as they venture out on their walks with their bundled humans.

Fortunately the Doris Day Forum always brings us warmth. So, thank you again.

[webmaster]

Thanks, Johnny. Sounds very tough where you are - hope it gets warmer soon.

Fabulous banner Bryan - Doris' Helen Rose gown on the right looks as crisp as the weather, conversely the orange hue on the left provides some warmth. Beautiful

[howard]

Great banner - one of the best! Brings back such wonderful memories!

[jmichael]

Great banner, great film!

We are a balmy 37 degrees today after two weeks of temps below freezing and a few days in the low single digits. Brrrrr!

A wonderful banner, simply fantastic! It is amazing!

Greetings from Poland Ania

Thanks, MA and Ania! A final variation:







This is a YouTube video mashup of Love Me or Leave Me and a roaring twenties tune "Turn on the Heat".
I made it 8 years ago! it hasn't had many views, I'm not bothered about that but I think that might be because I didn't identify it with Doris or LMOLM and just labeled it "Turn on the Heat".

Must check that out Bryan- oh, and another wonderful banner.

[texas gonzalo]

Great production Bryan. You captured the feel of the period with the sepia tones, the running lines on the film, the camera movements to give the images life, and especially the song bringing eveything together. I am sure it will get a lot of play now. Thanks for posting and Happy Days, Texas Gonzalo

[webmaster]

Thanks, Texas, appreciate your comments.

And, yes, the song is great and fits the mood that Cagney is in when he sets eyes on Doris and sees she's not impressed.

[jmichael]

Nice job on that video, Bryan! It really captures the look, the feel, and the sound of the roaring twenties.

You are multi-talented to say the least.

Cheers,
Michael

Thank you, Michael - it was a bit of a throw-away job that I would redo if I had the time - but fun to see many years later.

Here's an interesting article on Doris and Jimmy:



James Cagney and Doris Day,
The Perfect Couple That Never Got Together

James Cagney and Doris Day were a great team. There was a special magic when they worked together. Perhaps it was because they were very good friends. She had a lot of respect for his talent and experience, saying that he was the most professional actor with whom she ever worked, and he respected her, too. Some people have compared his relationship with her to his relationship with Joan Blondell, his best friend and frequent co-star in the 1930s. However, unlike Joan Blondell, Doris Day made only two pictures with James Cagney. For the Duo Double Feature Blogathon, I am going to explore the brilliant, untapped possibilities of Cagney and Day, the perfect film couple that never got together."

This article is incorrect. They appeared in three films together, not two:

Starlift
The West Point Story
Love Me Or Leave Me.

Oh, that fake news!

[webmaster]

Well spotted!

Great job Bryan re- Youtube - loved the look [and sound] of it.
