Sylvia Scarlett does not quite come together but it is the first great performance on film of Cary Grant tapping into his true self. The Archie Leach persona. There would be no more.
Well, I enjoy his movies, they cheer me up. I feel like we have a connection.
You probably do.
Wondering why TCM isn’t showing Notorious — one of his best, and representative of a stellar collaboration with Hitchcock….
