the Pink Panther movies were comedies-they were 'romantic comedies', and the DD/RH pairings were the worst of the breed. They were basically designed to put two attractive people together inside a paper-thin 'plot' while using as much sexual innuendo as possible within the confines of the absurd decency codes of the time. Even the titles were intended to cause a titter-I mean, come on, 'Pillow Talk', 'Lover Come Back'-oooh, maybe they'll both be shown sleeping in the same bed-after they're married, of course!
How can you compare 'Pillow Talk' with romantic comedies like 'African Queen', or 'Pat and Mike', or even 'Philadelphia Story'? Yes, I have enjoyed 'Pillow Talk', but believe me, in an ironic, I-wish-I-still-smoked-pot kind of way. Of course, it's no surprise that 'Pillow Talk' won an Oscar-for screenwriting!, but this is not the post to discuss Academy selections.
As for the wistful 'why don't they make them like this anymore', I can only assume you've not seen 'Pretty Woman', 'Sleepless in Seattle', 'Four Weddings and a Funeral', etc. etc. and etc. Yes, for better or for worse, they are 'still making them', and in the case of 'Pillow Talk', usually for the better.

But that films are not so important as to have to get headaches about them...
What you describe is enough for you to despise them, like the Monkees ( pop music ) some works for me.
And how it works!
Wonderful and delicious.
Pretty Woman is a terribly bad film.
Four Wedding is an exellent and so very British...
Not the glamour and the stars has left us, maybe for ever.

I am extanding to 70, thanks the extander, will MY wife loves it?
I am glad you bought the Pioneer it is really good, safe with old films where it tends to makes some noise, or you make the unit so soft that it got blurred...

Well, I'm just at 58 with my 700-series Panasonic, so of course my life's a mess '-)
I would have gone for the 65-inch version, but my wife implied she wouldn't be too happy, and quite frankly, the 58 is paid for, so in about 525 square feet of apartment, we aren't really suffering, vision-wise. Also I had recurring nightmares of my fairly beefy stand exploding under the strain of the big Panny ("my beefy stand exploding"....can you even say that on message boards...)

Don´t be impatient, it will grow on time..
