- Labor and management at the Sleeptite Pajama Factory aren't getting much sleep lately: a proposed 7-1/2-cent hourly wage increase is the reason and a job action just may be the result. But not to worry: negotiating strategies here involve snappy stars, terrific tunes and dynamic dances, all part of one of the most infectiously joyful stage/screen musicals ever.Doris Day and a Broadway-seasoned sup
Movie Reviews of The Pajama Game
Movie Review: Don't Buy the Westlake Entertainment Group Edition
Summary: 2 Stars
The Westlake Entertainment Group transfer to DVD from the Warner original is exceptionally dark in color, more suited to film noir than a once-brightly colored musical comedy. Great film, bad print! Look for the Warner Home Video Edition. The Pajama Game
Summary of The Pajama Game
EMPLOYEES OF THE SLEEPTITE PAJAMA FACTORY ARE LOOKING FOR A RAISE & THEY WON'T TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER. BABE WILLIAMS ISTHEIR FEISTY EMPLOYEE REPRESENTATIVE BUT SHE MAY HAVE FOUND HER MATCH IN SHOP SUPERINTENDENT SID SOROKIN. WHEN THE TWO GETTOGETHER THEY WIND UP TALKING ABOUT MORE THAN JOB ACTIONS!This 1957 version of the Tony-winning Pajama Game is one of the finest film adaptations of a hit Broadway musical. The story is simple enough: Babe Williams, the head of a pajama company's grievance committee, falls for an exec--the new superintendent--Sid Sorokin (John Raitt). Doris Day, as Babe, has never been so efficiently cute. Raitt starred in the Broadway version, as did much of the film's cast (Day replaced original stage star Janis Paige). The Pajama Game is filled with recognizable, classic songs, done so well and danced so athletically that this musical can engage an action-film fan. Bob Fosse's trademark choreography shines.
Check out two numbers danced by the late, underused, and underrated Carol Haney, who performs amazing feats for "Steam Heat" and "Hernando's Hideaway." Both Day and Raitt deliver lovely renditions of "Hey There." They're also supported by a great cast that includes, in addition to Haney, a slyly coy Reta Shaw and a dynamic Eddie Foy Jr. --N.F.
