That Touch of Mink

That Touch of Mink is a 1962 American romantic comedy film directed by Delbert Mann and starring Cary Grant, Doris Day, Gig Young, and Audrey Meadows. Plot Cathy Timberlake, a New York career woman looking for a job, walks to the unemployment office to collect her check. There, she is subjected to the unwanted advances of Beasley, a clerk who's interested only in sex. Then, she meets business executive Philip Shayne after his Rolls-Royce splashes her dress with mud while on her way to a job interview. Philip wants to make up for the incident. Upon meeting, the two discover a strong mutual attraction. Over time, Philip proposes a romantic affair, while Cathy holds out for marriage. In a minor subplot, Philip's financial manager, Roger, sees a therapist to discuss his guilt about helping his boss with numerous sexual conquests -- including Cathy. But the therapist, who is discreetly absent from the room when Cathy's name is mentioned, believes that Roger is considering a homosexual affair with Philip. Philip wines and dines Cathy nightly, even spending one date at a Yankees game, sharing the dugout with Roger Maris, Mickey Mantle, and Yogi Berra. But this particular conquest weighs on Philip's conscience, so he withdraws an invitation to Bermuda. However, this only serves to make Cathy indignant. Asserting her independence, she agrees to go. But while in Bermuda, she is anxiety-ridden over the evening's sexual implications. As a result, Cathy comes down with a nervous rash, much to her embarrassment and Philip's frustration. Later, a second Bermuda trip is attempted, but this time Cathy drinks to soothe her nerves and winds up drunk, falling off the hotel balcony onto an awning below. She is then carried in her pajamas through the crowded lobby. At the urging of Roger and Connie, who are convinced Philip is in love with her, Cathy plans a motel rendezvous with Beasley to make Philip jealous. Her plan succeeds, and she and Philip are married. On their honeymoon, he breaks out in a nervous rash himself. The film ends with Cathy and Philip months later, walking with their baby and Roger through a park. The two leave Roger alone with the baby for a few moments, during which time his therapist approaches him to ask how things are going with Philip. In response, Roger joyously displays the baby, causing another misunderstanding on the therapist's part.
