Last summer I watched Paul Newman movies I had never seen and dubbed it the Summer of Paul.
This spring I plan to watch ten or eleven Cary Grant movies and call it The Spring of Cary.
The idea to watch Cary Grant movies came when I was looking up a particular movie of his for another reason and realized how many of his movies I haven’t seen.
I decided I needed to remedy that as soon as possible.
So, for the months of April and May I will be watching the following movies and posting reviews of them on Thursdays.
Houseboat (April 6 )
The Awful Truth (April 13)
My Favorite Wife (April 20)
An Affair to Remember (April 27)
Holiday (May 4)
Operation Petticoat (May 11)
Suspicion (May 18)
Notorious (May 25)
If you want to join me in watching them, let me know. I plan to watch one and blog about it and then mention in each post which movie or movies I am watching next.
Until then, here are trailers for the first three movies I plan to watch.
Love this; I’ll try to find the movies and watch along.

I have two on DVD and I was going to look for the others on Streaming (I know they are there) but then I thought maybe my library might have them so I am going to look there first.
There are two Cary Grant movies on YouTube, and of course I didn’t pick either of those for this list. His Girl Friday is hilarious and a favorite of mine:
and People Will Talk, which I haven’t seen:

Sometimes the sound quality isn’t the best on the old radio shows, but I love listening to them. Cary was on a couple of the Suspense shows. The one I posted is his best known. Many other stars appeared on the show as well.
I always loved hearing Bob Hope, Danny Kaye, and other comedians playing serious roles.

That’s awesome! I listened to a couple radio productions with Cary and Jimm Stewart and Myrna Lloyd. One was Mr. Blandings Builds A House on radio. It used to be on Apple Music, but I think they took it down.

Arsenic and Old Lace is one of my favorites. The Hitchcock ones are fantastic.

Sounds like fun! I have seen Houseboat, An Affair to Remember, Operation Petticoat, Suspicion, and Notorious. But I’m a lot older than you which might explain why I’ve seen so many of those. 😉

My husband says I’ve seen Notorious and Suspicion but I am going to watch them again because I think I forgot them! I don’t know…I may be acting your age because I can’t remember. *wink*
