The Thrill Of It All

Doris Day and James Garner star in The Thrill of it All!, a breezy comedy about what happens when your 15 minutes of fame finally arrives -- and turns your life upside down. Dr. Gerald Boyer (Garner) and his lovely wife Beverly (Day) are living the American dream. After Beverly is suddenly selected as the national advertising spokeswoman for "Happy Soap," their suburban bliss turns to media-driven frenzy. As Beverly's career begins to skyrocket, her neglected husband is increasingly put out by the fact that when his family does get to see her, it's on TV! Directed by Norman Jewison, The Thrill of it All! is a brilliantly polished comedy jewel highlighted by a screenplay from comedy legend Carl Reiner.
