DND begins with Janet (Doris Day... with her Doris Day hairdo and her Doris Day giggle) attempting to pay for a London cab ride, but hasn't yet figured out the money. She argues with hubby Mike (Rod Taylor), a foreshadowing of the bickering and troubles that always seem to come in a Doris Day film. Astute viewers will recognize the landlord "Vanessa" to be Hermione Badderly, the housekeeper from "Maude". DD and Taylor would also make "Glass Bottom Boat" the following year; This was pretty much during her prime acting years, when she also made all those films with Rock Hudson. Day had also just made Please Don't Eat the Daisies, which if I recall correctly, had a VERY similar plot.... where to live when the husband gets a new job. All the arguing they are doing leads Janet to believe that Mike is fooling around, so things go downhill from there. Directed by Ralph Levy, who did mostly TV; this was one of the two films he directed. It's a slow simmer, but not bad. The good thing about THIS one is that DD doesn't burst into song every couple minutes. Currently showing on netflix.
