Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

If you've ever seen the famous clip of Doris Day, Jack Carson, and Bugs Bunny singing together, you've seen part of My Dream is Yours. It's the cutest scene in the movie, a lyrical version of "Hungarian Rhapsody", that reminds audiences of Gene Kelly's adorable dance with Jerry the Mouse in Anchors Aweigh. If you can't find a copy of My Dream is Yours, you should at least watch that song on YouTube. It's very cute.Lee Bowman plays a big radio star, but his ego gets in the way of renewing his contract, so Jack Carson makes it his mission to find a new star to replace Lee. He finds the unknown, beautiful Doris Day, but she has a son in tow and the radio station doesn't like the idea of signing her on. As Jack tries to help her, they fall in love.Jack and Doris are always adorable together, and whenever I watch one of their films together, I pretend that they got married in real life and lived happily ever after, even though that's not what really happened. They just have a magical chemistry together that puts you in a good mood and makes you believe in true love. So, for an adorable couple, some memorable songs, and an all-around cute story, rent My Dream is Yours. It's great to watch when you're feeling blue; it's guaranteed to cheer you up!

. . . which takes up about 4 minutes and 14.5 seconds of this 101 minute flick, and which is the only part of this film that I've seen (and perhaps will ever see). This animated interlude (with an additional 38 seconds of explanatory preface screens) is included as an appendix (or bonus feature) on the LOONEY TUNES GOLDEN COLLECTION (VOLUME 1), DISC ONE: BUGS BUNNY 2003 DVD release from Warner Bros. It is the second of two items presented under the heading of "Bugs Bunny at the Movies." (The first is a less extensive "dream" appearance by Bugs in the 1948 Dennis Morgan vehicle, TWO GUYS FROM TEXA$.) Bugs is on-screen for about 2 minutes, 46 seconds of this scene. Though this bit is initially boring enough to put a kid to sleep, the wave of humor crests when Jack Carson and Doris Day pop into the picture made up as diminutive Easter Bunnies, joining Bugs in singing wake-up lyrics to the still-sleeping-soundly nephew Freddie, set to the frenetic music of Franz Listz's "Hungarian Rhapsody #2." Tweety Bird's cameo adds little to this scene (which could be said regarding his "star turns," as well).

I've forgotten how vibrant and appealing the young Doris was.She benefits here from a class director like Michael Curtiz.I only wished he could have done the same for Rosie Clooney in "White Christmas" or with Peggy Lee in "The Jazz Singer" as they had this potential beyond being blonde canary birds, but never hit their stride in films the way Doris did. Here she visits such Hollywood landmarks as the Brown Derby and Schwab's drug store. Eve Arden scores again as the unlucky-with-men, wise-cracking best friend, a part Thelma Ritter played to perfection in "Pilow Talk," later with Doris. After the first hour, the ghost of "A Star is Born" begins to take form as Lee Bowman drinks himself out of a career and then the unknown Doris rises to become a bigger star than he. Also, the presence of both Jack Carson and Adolphe Menjou from both versions of " Star is Born" triggered my memory. But Bowman is no James Mason who evoked sympathy from the audience and, in fact, he's mainly a conceited jerk who deserves to fail.But this is Doris's film and in it she showed the promise of what was to come in films like "Young Man with a Horn" (Curtiz again) and "Love Me or Leave Me." It's only when musicals dropped out of fashion and she was forced into doing mediocre comedies that made us forget her truly wide-ranging talents. Had she been given better co-stars than Jack Carson and the insipid Gordon MacRae, she might have risen to the heights of a Judy Garland!

I'm an old Doris Day fan from way back. I loved this movie, because it was sheer, delightful entertainment. It was post-World War 2 and just what the movie-going audience seemed to be "eating up" during that time in our history. First of all, it had a wonderful look to it - the sunny southern California locale, handsome co-star, Lee Bowman and romantic not-so-handsome co-star, Jack Carson. The story has some dark undertones when Doris finds herself duped into believing the object of her desire is nothing more than an egotistical, spotlight-grabbing, soon-to-be "has-been". However, the songs are bright and beautiful and Doris has never had a better showcase for her talent. This movie will take you away to an innocent time, if only for a little while. Try it - you'll like it!
