Story Synopsis

Please Don’t Eat The Daisies is based upon the book by Jean Kerr. This family comedy is about the problem life of a drama professor (David Niven) who becomes one of New York’s top seven drama critics. Now a critic for a major New York daily, he is scorned by a family friend who is a Broadway producer because in his first review he pans his friend’s show and the leading lady’s performance. War is declared. His supportive wife (Doris Day) keeps their four bratty kids in line in a knockout performance as a tireless, energetic wife and mother. Really, a story never develops, but we are party to the tribulations of a drama critic and his inner circle.
