Doris Day's family, career and life | True Story Documentary Channel

Nn endearing account of Doris Day's life and career delivered in a quirky and fun way. It's as cute and as wholesome as the lady it is about - offering a fascinating insight into Doris's distant Germanic roots, her hardworking days in Hollywood and twilight years retired with her dogs in a picturesque and pet-friendly town. Covering serious and respectful journalism which actually enables Joe Public to impartially appraise the woman who is a cultural icon of the 20th and 21st century. It delivers a cheery, "tongue-in-cheek" study which is remarkably refreshing and enjoyable to watch. With a healthy dose of movie, television and song clips which represent all facets of Doris Day the entertainer; unique material from private archives; all-new interviews with actors Philip Brown, Peter Graves, Jackie Joseph and Noah Keen, biographers Pierre Patrick and Tom Santopietro, Doris Day fans, childhood acquaintances and even distant relatives from Germany. This is all wrapped up with some fascinating on-location filming of historical landmarks and buildings relevant to Doris Day's family, career and life from her birth place of Cincinnati, her current home town of Carmel-by-the-Sea to the German province. A 2008 telephone conversation between Doris and the film's makers is also notably contained which occurred during Doris's annual "birthday" call-in on her local radio station with DJ Ed Dickinson [where the production team were visiting]. A timely reminder of what a difference having Doris Day has made to the world.

When Doris Day first started taking singing lessons her teacher told her mother that she wasn't sure it would be worth persevering....but Doris's mother said she should keep taking lesson's and after awhile the teacher realised Doris had talent and should keep going.... it's all about practice, practice practice! Doris Day (Kappelhoff was her real last name) was a lovely humble person and she had wonderful comic timing in her movies!

Thanks for this wonderful video. Doris Day is my favorite actress. She energizes me with her confidence and optimism. I have been gravitating to Glen Miller, Artie Shaw and Doris Day in these dark woke days.
