With his dark hair and mischievous smile  he is  was and always will be one of the great stars  and in the decade since his death  the incandescence of his image on the screen has not dimmed. Born Archie Leach  the only child of a poor tailors presser and an unstable mother  in Bristol in 1904  Cary Grant became what the critic Pauline Kael once memorably called the \"fairy tale hero\". Handsome  debonair  endlessly attractive and yet never seeming to take himself seriously  he was pursued by some of the most beautiful women in the history of the cinema  among them Marlene Dietrich  Sophia Loren  Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn. In a career spanning 72 films  he appeared with such notable co-stars as Mae West  Katherine Hepburn  Ingrid Bergman  Grace Kelly. He was also directed by some of Hollywoods greatest directors  including Howard Hawks  Alfred Hitchcock  Leo McCarey  George Cukor  Stanley Donen and Frank Capra. Grant was five times married  to a succession of beautiful women  including the heiress Barbara Hutton and the actress Dyan Cannon  and sustained a tortured relationship with money.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45652929806389,"sku":"ByrdShop_0002163713","price":127.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780002163712.jpg?v=1781853328","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/haunted-idol-the-story-of-the-real-cary-grant-9780002163712","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
