Happy #OpeningDay! New York Yankees legends Mickey Mantle, Roger Maris and Yogi Berra appeared with Cary Grant and Doris Day in THAT TOUCH OF MINK ('62). | Turner Classic Movies: TCM

TEA FOR TWO ('50) was a big film for Doris Day. It was the first film in which she would receive top billing and it was also the first film in which she would dance. "God, was it difficult! I never worked harder at anything than I did at the dances in my films," she said. The hard work paid off. Day's dancing with Gene Nelson was praised by critics and audiences alike. See this charming film tonight at 11:45pm ET as we salute Star of the Month Doris Day. | Turner Classic Movies: TCM

"If there ever was an instant star in movies, it was Doris Day." – Dave Karger looks at Day's first leading performance as she sings the titular song in MY DREAM IS YOURS ('49). See it this afternoon as part of this week's Musical Matinee at 12pm ET. | Turner Classic Movies: TCM
