What is your favorite Cary Grant movie? |
|
So many to choose from but I never tire of "His Girl Friday" or "North by Northwest." He was just about the best comedy actor in Hollywood. His timing was as impeccable as his tailoring. His screen persona is one of the glories of the American cinema. Everybody wants to be Cary Grant, but there will never be another (even Archie Leach wanted to be Cary Grant).

:loveya:
The banter in "His Girl Friday" was just sick, it was so awesome. Quick paced, witty...haven't seen a banter like that since.

15. Charade is a superb movie--Grant and Audrey Hepburn |
|
are a great pair--add Walter Matthau, George Kennedy and James Coburn and you have a hell of an entertaining picture.
