Look, you're dealing with your wife. You can forget the Constitution. Send Me No Flowers is directed by Norman Jewison and collectively written by Julius J. Epstein, Norman Barasch and Carroll Moore. It stars Doris Day, Rock Hudson, Tony Randall, Clint Walker, Edward Andrews, Paul Lynde and Patricia Barry. Music is by Frank De Vol and cinematography by Danial Fapp. A hypochondriac believes he is dying and makes plans for his wife, which creates many misunderstandings for themselves and everyone around them... The pairing of Hudson and Day was an utter joy, producing romantic comedy escapism from the upper echelons of such genre stations. Send Me No Flowers is the last of their collaborations, so how wonderful to find it to be a grand way to bow out. In parts it's thunderously mirthful, even joyously tasteless in the process, in others it's mature and smart about the subjects …
