Labor and management at the Sleeptite Pajama Factory aren't getting much sleep lately: a proposed 7-1/2-cent hourly wage increase is the reason and a job action just may be the result. But not to worry: negotiating strategies here involve snappy stars terrific tunes and dynamic dances all part of one of the most infectiously joyful stage/screen musicals ever. Doris Day and a Broadway-seasoned supporting cast play The Pajama Game the lighthearted nimble-footed movie that whips the unlikely musical-comedy subject of a labor/management dispute into a buoyant romantic delight. Day is Babe Williams head of the employees' grievance committee who strikes sparks with shop superintendent Sid Sorokin (John Raitt in his only opportunity to play on of his stage triumph on film). And where there are spark "Steam Heat" results. For the songs by Damn Yankees duo Richard Adler and Jerry Ross and the choreography by Bob Fosse (Cabaret Sweet Charity) are too combustible to pass up all under the direction of two musical masters of stage and screen George Abbott and Stanley Donen. Besides "Steam Heat" (showcasing the quirky brilliance of dancer Carol Haney) catch "Hey There" "I'm Not at All in Love" "Hernando's Hideaway" "Small Talk" "Once-a-Year Day" "There Once Was a Man" and other all-time greats.Running Time: 101 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: MUSICALS/MUSICALS UPC: 012569705999

Summary: Pajama Game- Musical Lover
Comment: I am a lover of Musicals and Pajama Game has one of the highest energy and great music as most of the musicals of that time. I think anyone who is an "oldtime" musical lover would enjoy this musical as well as any high school theater teacher looking for a musical suitable to perform.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great Entertainment
Comment: Overall I am not a Doris Day Fan but I bought this because of John Raitt who as far as I know made no other films. The music and dance was great, and I am sorry that this quality of musical productions have not been continued. During the past few months I have purchased some hundreds of dollars of musicals. Some I would not keep in my library but this one I most certainly will.

Summary: Widescreen version
Comment: This is a double-sided DVD, with the 3:4 version on one side (with the left and right sides of the picture chopped off, as you would expect) and the 16:9 (widescreen) version on the other. To make the widescreen version completely fill a 16:9 HDTV display, they chopped off the top and bottom of the frame. Arrgh. It would be nice for the next release (Blu-Ray?) to show the movie as originally shown, without anything cropped out. Which would leave modest bars on the left and the right.

Summary: Doris under $2 on dvd Whats not to like?
Comment: Not bad for Doris in a Musical Under $2. Alot of fun for a little price! Worth the look. Or if you want to be real cheap see if your library owns a copy!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Don't buy!
Comment: One of the greatest musicals of all times - fast moving, fresh, daring, unbelievable camerawork and choreography but don't buy this edition. The wide screen version is missing and the print is poor!
