One of the great motion picture romances, "An Affair to Remember" stars the legendary Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr as two engaged to be wed people meeting aboard a cruise to New York. The pair soon become acquainted and their friendship blooms into romance.
They agree to meet at the top of the Empire State Building six months from then, provided they still feel the same way about each other. However, through a tragic series of events, their romance seems doomed forever. The film boasts stellar performances from Grant as a lovable playboy finally wishing to settle down with his ideal woman; Kerr is particularly engaging in the second half of the film regarding what has happened to their relationship.

One of the most complex films in Hitchcock's ouevre. Its complexity doesn't come from the depth and multi-layered nature of the plot; but rather it stems from the way how it deals with sophistication of human psyche, substantial moral complexity and poison of romance.
As a tale of frustrated love triangle combined with espionage, intrigue and self-sacrifice, the story has some odd parts and plot holes but I don't want to dwell on them in detail. Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman make an interesting pairing, but their relationship is helluva complicated (but ill-defined at all). As always Grant is exciting to watch; he's a nonchalant, arrogant and uneven yet charismatic, poker-faced and James Bond-type charmer here. Bergman is ethereally beautiful ...

In Name Only (1939)starring: John Cromwell|Carole Lombard|Cary Grant|Kay Francis January 12, 1998 |
||
|
"In Name Only" is a poignant look at an unhappy marriage that provides Carole Lombard with arguably her finest non-comedy performance and film. Based on the novel "Memory of Love" by Bessie Brewer, this 1939 film casts Lombard as Julie Eden, a young widow who rents a summer cottage in Connecticut near the estate of Alec Walker (Cary Grant). The two have fallen in love and Alec wants to get a divorce from his wife, Maida (Kay Francis), who only married him for his position and money. Maida appears to give in and promises to obtain a divorce in Paris, but when she returns after a long absence she announces that she will never divorce Alec and threatens to sue Julie for alienation of affection should Alec sue for divorce. It looks like Julie and Alec will never life ... Read More:

I am a huge fan of Cary Grant but this film must be one of his worst. The fact that the plot is totally contrived would not be a problem (most of Cary Grant's best films require a little suspension of disbelief) if it weren't for the paper-thin characterisation, the long-winded dialogue and the wooden acting. Robert Mitchum is completely out of place, Cary Grant looks bored (that's not just underacting!) and Deborah Kerr and Jean Simmons have both been much better in other films. Skip this and go straight to The Philadelphia Story, His Girl Friday or The Awful Truth, all of which deal with infidelity/divorce with far more wit and style. >>More Details |

If this was the first Steve Martin film I had ever seen I would have missed some of his really good ones because I wouldn't have bothered with any others. I thought the only good thing about it was the way old films were so cleverly used to bring in many old stars that only a granny like me would recognise. This one wont be watched again.

North By Northwest [1959]starring: Cary Grant, Eva Marie Saint, James Mason, Jessie Royce Landis, Leo G. Carroll directed by: Alfred Hitchcock February 14, 2000 |

Roger Thornhill (Grant) is mistaken for another man by a group of foreign spies and after a few unfortunate events, finds himself on the run.
North by Northwest is recognized as one of Alfred Hitchcock's finest films and with the adrenaline soaked narrative and a great central performance it is easy to see why. Cary Grant (Charade) delivers a sensational portrayal of advertising executive Roger Thornhill, a simple man who is mistaken for someone else. Thornhill is wonderfully sarcastic, very charismatic and plaudits must go to Grant who has created an original hero, an ordinary man who turns himself into an action hero within a short space of time in Alfred Hitchcock's wonderfully realistic world. Hitchcock's action styled direction ... Read More: >>More Details |

This review contains no plot-spoilers! For a film this old, it's a pleasant surprise to see the beautiful DVD print transfer, and hear the superb sound (no hiss, no crackles, even through headphones). Right from the opening scenes, you know this is a film that is going to good. Then Cary Grant walks in, and you know it's going to be superb. The atmosphere of the location is absolutely believable. The storyline & dialogue are both something that today's computer-driven Hollywood wunderkids would cut off their right arm to write. All the actors mesh perfectly. Yes, this is man's man's world; but because everyone 'knows where they stand', men bond deeply, are tender with each other, and even cry too. One of those rare films, like 'Brief Encounter', in which every shot is ... Read More:
