Sundays with Cary Grant: The Talk of the Town
“Everybody wants to be Cary Grant,” Cary Grant once acknowledged. “Even I want to be Cary Grant.” Self-deprecating but self-aware, he knew he was not just an actor but a persona – one he played, or played with, for four decades. For Sundays With Cary, we’ll revisit four of Grant’s classic films, all of which delight in issues of identity and image.
The Talk of the Town (1942) - Blending romance, mystery and politics, this film reunited Grant with George Stevens, who’d first directed him in “Gunga Din” and with Jean Arthur, with whom he’d made “Only Angels Have Wings.” But it’s Grant’s deft partnering with onscreen rival Ronald Colman that steals the show.
