scary Doris Day

When she does her eye-flutter/smile thing, and that quirky music plays, it's scary. It goes on throughout the movie, and it freaks me out.

I agree. No wonder that director kept freaking out. Who could blame him?

LOL.

Princess Tiana:You just kissed yourself a princess!
Prince Naveen:And I'm about to do it again.

This running bit was reminiscent of the one used Marion Davies' Show People (one of MGM's last silents). The tweeting sound effects were a little creepy!

I also thought that it was creepy (and weird in such an old movie - they were not usually doing strange things like that :D)

I came to this particular board for the same reason here lol . Also totally agree with everyone here too that " eye-flutter/smile thing " was just too freaky creepy for words . Why the heck did they make her do that for this movie ? I understand this movie was a comedy but that was just not funny . I'm watching this movie right now on TCM . It's a great movie so far ( from what I have seen of it missed the first half ) . Doris Day was fabulous as always ( like she was in every movie she was in ) . Thanks shandy8 for your subject post .

I'm watching it now and I thought the same thing. After the first few times it gets annoying. Love the film so far though!
