Who Cares if Your Name is Cary or Archibald? You Are Still Smoking Hot.

The ruling is in. After Jeff, Cary Grant defines the most perfect man for me.  I conned Jeff into watching Suspicion, which he enjoyed, and I watched North by Northwest the other day. 

I've always been a Cary Grant fan but this past week I made a decision that he was absolutely perfect looking in his prime (see dreamy photo at left) and pretty darn hot in middle (see North by Northwest) and old age, too.

Part of his appeal is his humor, which seems to show up in many roles he was in. I want to believe he was playing himself.  Have you ever seen Suspicion? Jeff and I were cracking up at him constantly though the Hitchcock movie was supposed to be suspenseful (and was, too).

Anyway, given my feelings toward Daniel Craig, it came as a surprise to me that I would take Cary Grant any day over him.  Now if only Cary Grant would have worn a swimsuit Daniel Craig Casino Royale style...

IMPORTANT UPDATE: According to IMDB, Ian Fleming was supposed to have modeled James Bond with Cary Grant in mind. It is all making sense to me.

I am also a Cary Grant fan and I'd choose him over Mr. Craig in a heartbeat. What I like about Cary Grant is that no matter what role he played, he always had this inherent sense of style and graciousness that shined through. He was a true gentleman.

I love Jimmy Stewart but he doesn't, um, give me the same stirrings that Cary Grant does. I'd rather Jimmy were my friend or brother or something.

I was just thinking about combining Cary and Jimmy into one man. :0)

We just watched "The Philadelphia Story" this week, and of course, who could forget "Bringing up Baby"? Hot, hot, HOT! Of course, I wouldn't kick Jimmy Stewart out either!
