Pillow Talk - Rock Hudson feigns gay to get Doris Day
Loading...
Uploaded by sanyorker on Nov 22, 2007
Rock Hudson (gay actor, closeted during his reign as silver screen leading man in the 50's and 60's) stars with Doris Day in Pillow Talk.
Brad (Rock Hudson) and Jan (Doris Day) share a phone line, arguing constantly about Brad's monopolizing of the line w/ his womanizing ways, but the two have never met. Brad pretends to be a Texan (Rex) to seduce Jan, once he gets a glimpse of her.
In this clip, closeted gay real-life Rock Hudson infers to Jan, as Brad, that Rex may be gay. Then as Rex, he leads on this suggestion to make the prudish Jan receptive to a kiss, as she becomes desperate to confirm his interest in her. Such a player.
Such irony!

I wonder what a Rock hudson and Doris Day Baby would look like?
-
Damn he was beautiful
-
And their friendship in real life lasted till the end which somehow makes this movie so classy.
-
LOL, my gay friend was so happy when I told him that Rock was gay. "Oh my god... thank you so much!" Rock was handsome. Great actor too!
-
Awww, she calls it vicious and sick! OY!
-
@bastardfingers ah ah yes exactly!!!
-
Wow what a movie kiss. I want to snog Rock Hudson!
-
@louisalit really? just read aloud what you said! "Could never have imagined that someone so handsomely masculine could be gay". But knowing he is gay is changed your opinion of him? straight or gay you wouldn't have had a chance with anyway.
-
@louisalit You didn't think someone so 'handsomely masculine' could be gay? It's not too late to join the real world you know.

A gay man pretending to be a straight man pretending to be a gay man... love it! Wonder if audiences of the day picked up on that irony? Kind of like the moment in "Bringing Up Baby" where Cary Grant (clad in a nightie) explains himself by saying he'd just "gone gay all of a sudden"!

This man was my dream and my ideal in the 50s! Could never have imagined that someone so handsomely masculine could be gay. And I had probably never heard about such .... Remember I saw a very romantic movie with him called "Never say goodbye", very touching and sentimental but he was so beautiful that I almost fainted when looking at him :-). Would have like to see the movie once more.
