  • The gossip

    If anyone actually thinks Cary Grant had any homsexual tendencies they are horribly misinformed. Apparently the author sits squarely in this category. All the publicity shots of Cary with Randy Scott were posed for publication. He injects this book with too many insinuations regarding this, and it cheapened the whole bio for me. I didn't learn too much and may seek another bio because of how cheaply written this was.

  • Cary Grant

    Cary Grant was one interesting man. Handsome, witty, rich and famous and loved his mother. I bought this book because I was curious about his marriages and background. There was an surprise in store for me. The author has a well written book. If you are an old movie fan, then go ahead and spend a few dollars to read Cary Grant's story. There was nothing that I disliked about this book.

  • loved it do you want to buy it back?

  • Eye-Opening!!!

    Well, the main reason I bought this book is because I love the movie An Affair to Remember and I fell in love with Cary Grant after seeing it. I never knew about his life in England or even his life once he came over to the US. I learned so much about this great actor/man and I can't wait to watch some more of his beloved movies. Too bad I did not know him or his movies when he was alive, but I know his legacy will go on!!! I thorougly enjoyed it!!!!

  • Just wonderful

    Very interesting reading. Truly enjoyable
