Funny Doris Day vehicle made memorable with Rod Taylor as her co-star and a terrific ensemble of supporting players-Dick Martin, Dom De Luise, Eric Fleiming, Ed Andrews and Miss Alice Pearce along with Ellen Corby.
This is essentially a spy caper and Doris is the prime suspect. The only one who believes her innocence is her boss and new lover, Rod Taylor.
My only objection to the movie was the casting of Arthur Godfrey as her father. Godfrey belonged in the same league as Mel Gibson, and they certainly could have gotten a person to play the father role.
Day is really original here as she assumes the role of a "klutzy" woman caught up in mayhem. The scenes in the kitchen of the future, on board a motorboat and others are uproarious in laughter.
Sadly, the film marked the end of cancer stricken Alice Pearce, who died shortly after making the film, as well as the tragic passing of villain Eric Fleming in a drowning accident off Peru shortly after the film. This film showed the technological advances that were to come years later. They certainly used these advances to their benefit to poke fun of the society that would make them.
