Player El Cid, one of mine as well. If I am honest, there are not many actors that can compare.

The studio changed everyone's names in those days. They wanted them to be attractive, easy to remember and to "sound American".

Rosalinda Humphrey, i don’t blame him for changing his name

If you want to see a very good tearjerker with him and Irene Dunne, watch "Penny Serenade." It's wonderful. Grant earned an Oscar nomination for his role.

Player. Ty, I can't remember the name of another movie he was in that he used Archie Leach as an alias.
Player. Ty
Cary Grant was a Trip.
He even says his real name in the movie "My Girl Friday"
Player #9495659
LOTO-LAD, Oh no, she was the lucky one. He could have found someone more stable. The woman he was married to for about 10 years, he claimed was the best one and he should have stayed with her. Dyan married him to help her career, but due to her poor acting, even Grant could not save her from a nominal acting career.
Player #9495659
Julie640, Ah, same letters, just switched around.
