- Synopsis:
He could become a bloke or a blueblood, a comic or a cad, an ordinary Joe or an extraordinary hero with equal ease. But his greatest creation looms larger than any of his film roles. He became Cary Grant. The man, the myths, the movies. 'Cary Grant: A Class Apart' celebrates the star's career and persona while not avoiding the controversy of his private life. Movie clips, rare home movies and other footage traces his journey from humble music-hall acrobat to Hollywood legend. Colleagues (Ralph Bellamy, George Cukor, Stanley Donen, Howard Hawks, George Kennedy, Eva Marie Saint), wives (Barbara Grant, Betsy Drake), critics - they and others share anecdotes and insights. And excerpts from Grant's essays add perspectives from the fascinating and complex star who once said: "Everyone wants to be Cary Grant. Even I...". - Actors:
