First sentence: Perhaps the most memorable feature of Pillow Talk (1959; dir. Michael Gordon) is the way the film situates the sexuality of its male lead, bachelor songwriter Brad Allen (Rock Hudson), against the theatrical backdrop of his apartment, a fantasy playpen where domestic technology serves a single purpose-seduction.
