Cary Grant

The Essay

Available for over a year

Sarah Churchwell celebrates various leading men of the silver screen from the 1930s and 1940s. She says, "the truth is, I would have done five essays on Cary Grant, but my producer wouldn't let me... Grant embodied the unimaginable." He was also excellent at romantic comedy and drama, and this is now examined. Cherished even. Producer: Duncan Minshull
