Great news for fans of Doris Day! THE GLASS BOTTOM BOAT is currently available on Blu-ray from Warner Archives. Ordering information can be found HERE

Doris Day entered her eighth consecutive year as a top-10 box-office star when she boarded The Glass Bottom Boat, a hilarious blending of romantic comedy and the era’s burgeoning spy-movie genre. Day plays Jennifer, a girl Friday at a hush-hush aeronautics think tank. When colleagues suspect she’s an espionage agent, Jennifer chaotically sets out to clear her name. Looney Tunes alumnus Frank Tashlin directs with a cartoonist’s sensibility – or zany insensibility – embracing everything from spy guises to push-button chaos in a futuristic kitchen. With top comedians Arthur Godfrey, Paul Lynde, Edward Andrews, John McGiver, Dom DeLuise and Dick Martin in tow, The Glass Bottom Boat is loaded top to bottom with see-through fun.

Frank Tashlin directs Doris Day as “the drip-dry spy licensed for laughs” in this delightful spy spoof/romantic comedy co-starring the always welcome Rod Taylor and all-star assemblage of comedic supporting players. Day plays Jennifer Nelson, a PR pro who finds herself under suspicion as a spy and under pursuit from her boss when she takes a job at a state-of-art aeronautics firm. Tashlin’s gift for reality-bending visuals that amuse and amaze are on ample display thanks to the deep-sea clarity and color of this new 1080p HD transfer. Animation fans will be doubly delighted to discover Chuck Jones’ Academy Award® winning short “The Dot and The Line” in HD nestled in among the disc’s special features. Special Features: 3 Vintage Featurettes – Catalina Island, Every Girl’s Dream, and NASA; cartoon short “The Dot and The Line” (HD); Theatrical Trailer. (HD) 16×9 Letterbox
