Cary Grant Project

Here's a Cary Grant movie in which he doesn't play a mid-Atlantic American WASP: "The Grass Is Greener", from the twilight part of his acting career. He's the typical titled English gentlemen, with land and a name, but so little money that his house and grounds are open to tourists. And his wife grows and sells mushrooms. Mushrooms!  It's about marital infidelity -- in a stuffy British way; along with some contrast of the differences between Americans and Englishmen.  Cary Grant's wife's wandering eye is locked onto an American millionaire, Robert Mitchum.

The Cary Grant Project now has a completed decade! The 1960s. Of course, it is Cary Grant's least active decade -- only half a dozen movies -- but you gotta start somewhere.
