Hot breaking news for movie fans.

Dust off your DVR ... Tuesday, July 27, is Doris Day Day on Turner Classic Movies. They’re featuring five of her lesser-known films, including: 1) “The West Point Story” with James Cagney and Gordon MacRae; 2) “The Winning Team” with Ronald Reagan; 3) “By the Light of the Silvery Moon” with Gordon MacRae (small-town cornball musical based on Booth Tarkington’s Penrod stories); 4) “With Six You Get Eggroll” with Brian Keith (a direct rip-off of Lucille Ball’s 1968 hit “Yours, Mine and Ours”); and 5) “The Tunnel of Love” with Richard Widmark (in a rare comedy role) and Gig Young. Although I think Doris Day was terrific in every movie she made, the only one in the list above that I actually like is number five ... mostly because Richard Widmark is pretty damn cute when he’s not a psychopathic killer.

For the record, my personal favorite Doris Day movies are “Midnight Lace,” “Teacher’s Pet,” “The Man Who Knew Too Much,” “Pillow Talk” and “Love Me or Leave Me.”

And now ... for those of you looking for a refreshing summer beverage, please don’t miss this slide show on MensHealth.com about the 20 worst drinks in America. Pictured below is a can of Arizona Kiwi Strawberry, their winner for “worst juice imposter” with as much sugar as seven bowls of Froot Loops.
