caroljenn Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 I remember watching a 1960s movie a long time ago, and I can't remember the name for the life of me. I'd like to see if they have it on iTunes or Netflix so I can see it again, and possibly watch it with my teenagers. Cary Grant or Rock Hudson (could be another, but I don't think so) I think was a pilot, and he was dating all of these stewardesses, and they all had separate rooms in his big apartment. Of course, they all happened to come into town at once, and the movie centers around him trying to juggle all of these women without them catching on. It was a hoot, one of those great 60s movies that had just a small touch of naughtiness, unlike the movies today! Anyone remember what it was called? Or more about it? Thanks for your help! Quote

LibraryLover Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Come Fly With Me? Admittedly, this is the only 1960's movie about flight attendants that I can recall. ;) Quote
caroljenn Posted November 12, 2012 Author Posted November 12, 2012 OMG I think that's it!! Thank you so much- I'm going to see if iTunes has it. Yay!!! Quote
TranquilMind Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Could it be this one: Boeing Boeing is a great 1960's comedy about a reporter called Bernard Lawrence, played by Tony Curtis, who has three fiancees. They all are air hostesses, one is working for Luftansa, one for Air France and one for British United.Bernard has to keep looking the air schedules very often, that the ladies won't be at Bernard's Paris apartment at the same time.Bernard has a little helper in the house called Bertha (Thelma Ritter), so Bernard's doesn't have to do all the work.But everything starts going wrong when Bernard's reporter buddy Robert Reed ,played by the great Jerry Lewis, comes to stay at Bernard's place.And everything goes even worse when the air schedules change. Bernard's perfect plan starts to fail. It is very funny to watch Bernard and Robert try to hide the ladies from each others.Tony Curtis and Jerry Lewis are great comedy actors and they do a great acting job in this 1965 comedy called Boeing Boeing. ETA: Sounds like the others were faster! There were no responses when I saw your post. Quote

katilac Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 I'm a little :lol: that carrying on three simultaneous affairs qualifies as "a small touch of naughtiness!" Quote
caroljenn Posted November 13, 2012 Author Posted November 13, 2012 It IS Boeing Boeing and I downloaded it and watched it already on iTunes! Yay and a big thank you to The Hive! Does anyone have anymore ideas for great old movies like this one? I need more movies to rent, it helps the treadmill time pass a little faster! P.s.. I'm going to try How to Murder Your Wife. I liked Its a Mad Mad Mad World, love Doris Day and all of the silly old movies. =P Quote
