Cary Grant Project

We've got a new addition:  "Dream Wife", Cary Grant's first movie with Deborah Kerr. He throws her over for a hot, young -- very young -- thing from some indeterminate foreign land where she's the daughter of the Khan.  And where the women still delight in pleasing their men instead of trying to be the man.  Like those darned American women.  In 1953.

Cary Grant Project

It's been a few years, but I haven't forgotten! Started in 2008 and last updated in 2011, the Cary Grant Project continues. Today I watched "The Toast Of New York", the story of Jim Fisk. Cary Grant played his friend and business partner, Nick Boyd; at least, that was the character's name in the movie. It was pretty much Edward Arnold's movie, but Cary Grant was the amiable sidekick, and the voice of reason when it came time for the big "cornering the gold market" climax. This was more of the rougher early Cary Grant, before he hit his 1940s stride, but still enjoyable.

Today I finished another double DVD. "Wings In The Dark" was kind of a boring, melodramatic story of a pilot who becomes blind.  "Big Brown Eyes" was a little more interesting. It had the same, breathless, non-stop dialogue that was done much better in "His Girl Friday".  And who could ever imagine such a huge, busy barbershop, where all the guys seemed to be getting manicures along with their haircuts?

Once again I've found a very early Cary Grant, um, project: "Hot Saturday". He's kind of a cad. And, based on his bad reputation, a nice chick who works at the bank gets her own bad reputation. But he's super rich. It all ends rather abruptly. But, hey, it was 1932. Also starring Randolph Scott. Yes. Randolph! Scott!

Cary Grant Project

It's not really fair to compare today's entry, "Merrily We Go To Hell", with the rest of the Cary Grant movies, because not only is it not really a "Cary Grant Movie", he's in maybe a minute of it.  So I just stuck it down near the bottom.  He's an actor in a play and the play is hardly related to the rest of the movie.  It's really about a drunken newspaper guy (Fredric March) who gets married to a lovely rich girl (Sylvia Sidney), but his drinking leads down a tragic path.

This is the earliest release on the list so far -- one of 8 movies Cary Grant appeared in that came out in 1932. What a year.

Cary Grant Project

It's like a double feature. I'm adding "Kiss And Make-Up" and "Thirty Day Princess", both from 1934, at the same time. They're combined on one DVD. How about that!  There's something about these pre-1937 Cary Grant movies, it's almost like they're still treating the movies as fancy theater productions. Not that the scenes are static or anything, but what I notice is that Cary Grant generally seems physically real stiff, and overly made up, even with thick lipstick. Well, that's my impression. And then it seems like some big leap forward happened between '36 and '37.

In "Thirty Day Princess", he's the thorn in the side of those nasty bankers keeping the common Depression-era man down. But this banker's using a hot princess-lookalike to raise money for a foreign country's bond issue.  And how could a hot princess-lookalike not fall for Cary Grant.  In "Kiss And Make-Up", he's some kind of smarmy beauty doctor, doing plastic surgery (or the 1930's equivalent) and promoting skin creams and diet and exercise. Because all women want to be beautiful and to be loved.  Ah, some things never change!  There's even a very 1930's-ish car chase scene, filled with longshots that look like a simple studio lot and closeups with fast-moving street scenes projected behind the actors.  (The dude whose wife he steals is played by Edward Everett Horton, who was in no less than 5 movies with Cary Grant. He was 36 when his first movie came out -- but then, there weren't any movies before then. That was in 1922.  Over the next 50 years he had a good 175 movie and TV credits. I kind of wonder if that provided a comfortable standard of living for him. I'm guessing he did alright; although it wouldn't surprise me if his lifetime earnings were less than a star is paid to be in one movie today.)

Cary Grant Project

I'm not sure why I like this one as much as I do. When you stop and think about it, there's not all that much going on in "Holiday", originally a stage play.  But it does have both Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn, so that probably boosts it up a lot. In this one, Cary Grant wants to go off and enjoy his life as soon as he has enough money to do so, and then later put in all those long years of working, when he's older. Crazy rebel. Which makes him kind of disruptive in the house of the girl he wants to marry, what with them being part of the super rich and her father expecting him to join his business and make money. Lots and lots of money. Four-story mansions in Manhattan with half a dozen servants don't come cheap, you know. But everyone in the family isn't so stuffy and pretentious as the girl and her father. For instance, "black sheep" sister, Katharine Hepburn. Hmm. I wonder which sister he'll end up with.

Cary Grant Project

Hmm.  Another movie about wanting a kid, among other things.  "Born To Be Bad" is one of Cary Grant's early movies.  And it's only an hour long! Loretta Young (in real life, only 21!) is surprisingly bad.  Like, criminally.  She does whatever it takes to get ahead; like fraudulently trying to squeeze big bucks out of a company over an accident, which leads to losing her no-good kid.  And she tries to use men to get ahead, too, just as much as any woman in a modern movie.  The only difference is that today the movie would be longer because they'd actually show all the stuff she does instead of just (blatantly) hinting at it.  I probably would have ranked this higher, except it's much more of a Loretta Young movie than a Cary Grant movie.

Cary Grant Project

Today's Cary Grant movie, "The Amazing Adventure", like many from the 1930s, has him playing an Englishman -- although in this one he sounds like regular, old Cary Grant, not Cary Grant with an English accent. I can't say I recognize any of the co-stars. He's a bored wealthy dude who makes one of those crazy bets that rich people make in movies: if he can live for a year without relying on his wealth or connections, a doctor who snubbed him will shake his hand and apologize. And if he can't make it, he'll donate 50 grand to the doctor's clinic. I suspect he's going to learn about what's really important in life.

Cary Grant Project

Today's entry is a pretty domestic-related film: "Penny Serenade". It's all about Cary Grant and Irene Dunne's marital woes and depressing life, centered around their hope of having a child. This one's got a couple of themes familiar from other lesser-known Cary Grant movies: divorce and adoption. Hmm. All 3 of his movies with Irene Dunne involved some kind of marital problems. But this one's got depression and despair sprinkled liberally throughout.

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.

Cary Grant Project

Now that I'm getting the netflix, I can see some of the more obscure titles I've been waiting to stumble across for this project.  "I'm No Angel", kind of like the other movie Cary Grant was in with Mae West, is really a Mae West movie and not a Cary Grant movie.  He's pretty much missing from the first hour.  I don't really get the popularity or attraction of Mae West, so given that it's her movie (she wrote it, too), it's no surprise I've buried it down near the end.  Cary Grant is a rich guy who falls for her lower-class (working class?) circus performer.  This is the movie where she tells her maid to peel her a grape.


And now we've hit 40 Cary Grant movies:

1. "North By Northwest", 1959, also starring Eva Marie Saint and James Mason
2. "Bringing Up Baby", 1938, also starring Katharine Hepburn

Cary Grant Project

I don't know if I'd call this one "bad", it's just less interesting than just about all the other Cary Grant movies on the list. A couple take in some orphans in "Room For One More" and prove that rotten kids can be reformed with good old familial love, with occasional little jokes about Cary Grant being neglected, matrimonially-speaking, because his wife's so darned busy taking care of family -- and stray animals. Heartwarming. The wife is Betsy Drake, who was the longest lasting (almost 13 years) of Cary Grant's many (5) wives.
