[QUOTE="ClassyCo, post: 271951, member: 7"] [JUSTIFY]It's interesting that director Mike Nichols wanted Doris Day to play Mrs. Robinson in THE GRADUATE in 1967. Day apparently got offended by the offer, and ultimately declined. One biographer theorized that she declined the opportunity because she found the part "vulgar". One wonders how THE GRADUATE might've played with Doris as Mrs. Robinson, and where her playing the role might've taken her career. Day's career was in a continuing decline in the late 1960s. Instead of doing THE GRADUATE, she ended up starring in CAPRICE and THE BALLD OF JOSIE that year, two poorly received box office flops. She made her final movie appearance the following year in 1968.
