The Pajama Game (1957)
From Amazon:
This 1957 version of the Tony-winning Pajama Game is one of the finest film adaptations of a hit Broadway musical. The story is simple enough: Babe Williams, the head of a pajama company's grievance committee, falls for an exec--the new superintendent--Sid Sorokin (John Raitt). Doris Day, as Babe, has never been so efficiently cute. Raitt starred in the Broadway version, as did much of the film's cast (Day replaced original stage star Janis Paige). The Pajama Game is filled with recognizable, classic songs, done so well and danced so athletically that this musical can engage an action-film fan. Bob Fosse's trademark...

Hey I know, let's make a movie about workers who stike at a pajama-making factory! And it'll star Doris Day!
The music and dancing is actually pretty good, but the sexual chemisty is at a big fat zero.
Day seems kinda butch and doesn't really fit into her role, she is outshone by lesser characters.
Fun but fruitless.
