These three romantic comedies look and sound amazing in HD on Blu-ray. But a tremendous triple feature is not all that is included in this set. Universal Home Video added some very cool bonus feature to this 3-disc Blu-ray set. Take a look at what is included.

The special featurettes of Pillow Talk and the chemistry of Doris Day and Rock Hudson are true must watch featurettes. They really take you behind the chemistry of these two icons. But the 100 Years of Universal featurettes are just as much must watch features. I was so impressed by Universal's desire to preserve and restore classics to pristine condition!
These films take you to a different time, a simpler time. Doris Day and Rock Hudson had such great chemistry together. It is mind boggling to me that these two only made three movies together. There were so many more stories that could have been told by these two. It's a shame! But at least we now have these three films on spectacular Blu-rays and that is a tremendous thing for physical media fans like me.
If you love romantic comedies, it doesn't much better than Doris Day and Rock Hudson's film. This triple feature Blu-ray is a lot of fun and I consider a must own for any classic film fan's collection. Head over to MovieZyng or Amazon and order your copy today.
