SunnyHello Nice effects though.

Supelice Dreadfully Boring

SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Ian (Flash Review)Basic premise is a journalism professor asks a high power newspaper editor to speak at her class. He writes a very rude reply in addition to saying no as it would be a waste of his time. The editor's boss later commands him to go to the class. Now embarrassed by his letter that the teacher read to the whole class, he claims to be a student to hide his shame. He finds the teacher very attractive and begins to hit on her with charm and writing intelligence. He continues to attend class posing as a student. As this progresses, will he come clean about his true identity and if he does, how will the teacher react? Several amusing moments throughout, good acting, smart dialog and nice crisp black and white film stock turn this into a fun little film. Also has some unique perspectives as the 50's began to change into the 60's.

tieman64 Clarke Gable and Doris Day lock horns in "Teacher's Pet" (1958), a romantic comedy by director George Seaton. Day plays Erica Stone, a professor who believes that journalism can be taught in schools, and that journalists should be intellectual types who investigate their subjects from a bevy of perspectives. Disagreeing with Stone is James Gannon (Clarke Gable), a renowned journalist who believes in street smarts, unpretentious writing and a willingness to pander to both market forces and the whims of the common man. The film quickly develops into a "battle-of-the-sexs" comedy, the mustachioed Clarke and the svelte Day bumping bodies and ideologies."Teacher's Pet" loses steam during its final act, and eventually starts repeating itself. For its first hour, though, this is nevertheless a cute comedy, competently directed by Seaton. It ends with Gannon and Stone begrudgingly accepting each other's point of view. Early scenes feature the infamous Mamie Van Doren as Pegggy DeFore, a nightclub singer.7/10 – Worth one viewing. See "In A Lonely Place", "His Girl Friday", "Sweet Smell of Success", and "Deadline" (1952)

nomoons11 Take what I said and think about it. Clark Gable already had 25+ years under his belt of doing standard and romantic comedies. He hasn't done many bad films. Take Doris Day and at this time it was the start of her power at the top of the box office. Mix those 2 together and you you get a wily veteran actor with a young beautiful actress who was made for film. The cap is the script is so good it just isn't fair to other romantic comedies.Clark Gable started off right outta the chute with "It Happened One Night" and it has since been hailed as the best romantic comedy ever. As much as much as I like that film it doesn't compare to this one. This one was polished to perfection.As for the plot, It doesn't get much simpler than an old curmudgeon of a newspaper editor gets invited to speak to a college class of budding reporters but he decides that as a reporter, you don't need college, you need experience. Enter Doris Day as the enthusiastic young teacher who loves Journalism. After reading his response to speak to her class she gets rather upset. He's forced to go the class anyhow by the owner of the paper. Whilst there, he decides to act as a student and show off how good his "non-college" experience is to her and the students. Through all he realizes that she actually has good ideas about newer Journalism and most of all, that he loves her....as she does him.You really must watch this gem of a film to get the idea of what I mean. It really is just a special film. Great script, great acting and casting....what more could you ask for?

David (Handlinghandel) The script is well done. The premise amusing: A hard-boiled editor faces off with a journalism teacher.The gender politics haven't aged well: Today, the Doris Day character would surely be an editor herself. In those days, though, being a nurse or teacher were what bright women did. And Day is a professor here (albeit in a night school.) She and Clark Gable, playing the newsman, don't exactly have chemistry. But they're not supposed to like or trust each other at first. They are both major movie stars in a system that was dying out.Speaking of dying, this was near the end of Gable's career -- only a few films before more famously ill-fated "The Misfits." And two of the major supporting players were to die at their own hands: Gig Young plays a brilliant psychologist Gable sees as a rival for Day's affections. (The scenes in which he's drunk are where it began, for me, to lose its charms a bit. They're slightly mean.)Nick Adams, too, died of unnatural causes. He plays a promising up-and-comer at the paper.Day is stuck with a very unbecoming hairstyle. It sort of bridges the gap between her days singing with big bands and her greatest (popular, if not critical) glory days in the movies with Rock Hudson. She gives a sturdy, likable performance.Mamie Van Doren is a nightclub singer of Gable's acquaintance. She too has a terrible haircut. (Please note: I generally don't notice actresses' hair but these two are notably unflattering.) The nightclub scenes recall "The Awdul Truth." And if, as she sings, she invented rock and roll, the song she sings in the club certainly shows no sign of that.The movie is long for a comedy. It could have been shorter and could have been better. Still, it's pure pleasure most of the way through.
