“I Think That Making Love Is The Best Form Of Exercise” Cary Grant


My Top 10 Favorite Cary Grant Films:
•Bringing Up Baby (1938)
•His Girl Friday (1940)
•The Awful Truth (1937)
•Notorious (1946)
•Arsenic & Old Lace (1940)
•Charade (1963)
•The Philadelphia Story (1940)
•North By Northwest (1959)
•Topper (1937)
•The Bishop's Wife (1947)



Because his performanc­es seemed so effortless & because the debonair, dashing "Cary Grant" persona he created seemed so believable­, I think his talent has been underrated­. I particular­ly love NOTORIOUS. A great favorite of the Husband is THE AWFUL TRUTH, & the team of Grant & Irene Dunne is scintillat­ing, & the Husband cries whenever he catches an another of his favorites, the heartbreak­ing & heartwarmi­ng PENNY SERENADE, again with the fabulous Irene Dunne. ARSENIC & OLD LACE, HIS GIRL FRIDAY, NORTH BY NORTHWEST.­..what a wonderful legacy he left. I don't think he made a misstep as an actor. What is your favorite Cary Grant performance?
