Lot 372
Rock Hudson's Working Copy of "Pillow Talk". Final Screenplay, dated January 10, 1959 with a few penciled notes in Hudson's hand. This was the first screen coupling of Hudson and Doris Day and probably the most well-known of the romantic comedies in which they starred together. It was released October 7, 1959. Hudson played a footloose bachelor who hogs the phone line he shares with career girl Doris Day to serenade a succession of women. Of course they fall for each other in the end. Miss Day received a Best Actress nomination for her role and Hudson showed a talent for comedy. This was the screenplay he used during filming. The 50-year-old script is still in good condition, with some light toning and wear.
Estimated Value $300 - 500.
Property of Martin Flaherty, Rock Hudson's estate manager from 1975 until Hudson's death in 1985.
