    Mr. Skinner, I was disappointed that you did not mention the 1963 movie Charade, with Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant. It was a fantastic mystery- thriller and romantic comedy with an all-star cast including Walter Matthau, James Coburn, George Kennedy, Ned Glass and more. There was great chemistry between Grant and Hepburn

I have seen so many of his movies. What a handsome man. He should have won an Oscar or a Golden Globe. He was so versatile. He could do romantic roles, dramatic roles or comedy. RIP Cary.

    Hands down the handsomest most charming actor to ever grace the silver screen! Classy, sexy, romantic, funny, he had it all. And could play drama too--Notorious, Mr Lucky; the end of An Affair To Remember when he realizes Terry is crippled always makes me cry. I had a chance to hear him speak in San Francisco but didn't go, and he died soon after. Always regretted not going :(. My favorite of all his roles is as Johnny Case in Holiday with Kate Hepburn. Second, a 3 way tie between Nicky Ferrante in Affair, Roger Thornhill in North By Northwest and Brian Cruikshank in Charade.

He was a decent, generous, humble and respectable guy. That's what matters most in a human being. He gave us all a good lasting impression. May he rest in peace.

    It has been 37 years and one day since Cary's death (11/30/2023). There are very few actors that worked for 30+ years and still had the ability to captivate an audience. He also became one of the first actors to break free of his studio contract and work independently. I can think of no one, with the _possible_ exception of George Clooney, who comes close to Cary's style or grace. Favorite movies: Holiday, Philadelphia Story, Notorious. RIP CG ❣ Thank you for this great bio. ❣

Such a beautiful man indeed. He didn't get the credit he deserved in Hollywood. I'm sure he didn't lose sleep over it. He was also a great poppa to Jennifer. A leading man til the end in my book. Miss you Mr. Crant.
