Region: All MSRP: $21.99 The Production: 4.5/5 Labor versus management in both business and pleasure clashes most delightfully in George Abbott and Stanley Donenâs The Pajama Game, a sensational and most faithful cinematic transcription to the 1954 Broadway musical hit. With most of the Broadway company brought to Hollywood to reprise their stage performances on the screen abetted by the inspired casting of Doris Day in the leading role, The Pajama Game is one of the most satisfying and entertaining screen musicals ever made. New pajama factory superintendent Sid Sorokin (John Raitt) is eager to make good at his new job, but he clashes almost immediately with the head of the unionâs grievance committee Babe Williams (Doris Day). Though she fights their mutual attraction, she eventually gives in to love, only to find herself on opposite sides of a union struggle with her boy friend to add 7 ½ cents to employeesâ wages. Penny-pinching pajama company president Myron Hasler (Ralph Dunn) is determined to deny the raise causing the employees to fight for their pay raise using any and all means at their disposal. The fight leads to some strained feelings between the lovebirds.
