This birthday message is coming a couple of days late but I am glad to send it out. In honor of Archie Leach’s birthday, I would like to spotlight some of my favorite performances featuring Bristol’s native son.
The no-brainers:
- The Philadelphia Story
- North by Northwest
- Arsenic and Old Lace
- His Girl Friday
- Notorious
- Bringing Up Baby
A few favorites that I have covered on my website:
And a few that I have yet to cover (that you may not all be totally aware of) – stay tuned for that:
- Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer
- My Favorite Wife
- The Awful Truth
What are some of your favorite Grant films?

January 20, 2013 at 9:04 pmHappy Belated B’day Mr Grant. He’s so gorgeous… amazing that his American accent was so good, I didn’t realize he was English at first. I think my fave movie of his is An Affair to Remember, with North by Northwest second. I need to see more though.
