When I was in grade school, I loved watching “Pillow Talk” with Rock Hudson and Doris Day. It usually played on AMC during the week of Valentine’s Day. I looked forward to it every year.
I wasn’t completely aware of why I loved it so much. I knew that I felt a certain way about Rock Hudson, but I didn’t know how to verbalize it yet.
It doesn’t matter that the film was from 1959 or that Rock had died in 1985. All I knew was that he was hot. A hot man is a hot man, it doesn’t matter if you’re talking past or present. Rock Hudson was and still is hot in that movie.
Now that Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, I think I’ll have to get out my DVD of “Pillow Talk” and enjoy it once again.
