Star of the Day - David Niven



















Both debonair and comedic, David Niven became a star by being such a fun and entertaining guy that everyone wanted to have him around. But, just because he had a great sense of humor, don't think that Niven wasn't great at drama. In fact, he won an Oscar for playing a supposed army major, whose daring deeds were mostly made up in Separate Tables.

But, back to the comedy - Niven made such fun, witty, and light-hearted gems as Bachelor Mother and The Bishop's Wife and the Pink Panther.

Check out Please Don't Eat the Daisies with Niven and Doris Day. Rising New York drama critic Larry McKay moves out of his small NY apartment with his wife, Kate, four sons, and dog to a big house in the country. While Kate becomes a suburban housewife, dealing with kids, dog and dilapidated house, Larry continues to enjoy New York night life - and find more success as a critic. The results are very entertaining!
