When I was travelling via Miami airport back to London after a holiday in 1981 I spotted Cary Grant striding through the terminal. Our eyes met and he gave me a really wonderful smile. He obviously realised I recognised him. A special moment! Probably 8 years or so before he died. Still A very handsome man!
I would have melted!!!!
Thank you Jordon loved your tribute and taking your audience to where these actual events happened I love the actual places I live that . I’m a huge Cary Grant fan thank you Jordan I love your work have a great 2024.
My sister and I had tickets to see him that very evening. We were heartbroken. He was such an iconic man. We loved him.
I did too! Broke my heart 💔
Cary Grant along with Jimmy Stewart, Humphrey Bogart, Clark Gable, Spencer Tracy, William Powell, Errol Flynn and many more, helped make the Golden Era of Hollywood. RIP, Gentlemen!
errol flynn and bogart for his gangster types
And the toughest of them all… James Cagney
Strange how you would leave out the actresses of this heralded Golden Age era of Hollywood. There's a reason why they are more revered today as screen Goddesses than the leading man. Barbara Stanwyck, Bette Davis, Olivia de Havilland, Lana Turner, Marilyn Monroe, Joan Crawford, Katharine Hepburn, Grace Kelly and many more etc all played their part and were vastly more interesting to look at beyond their incredible acting skills.
@@ops7917 Because the article was talking about a man not a woman. The women of the Golden Era were fantastic, I agree
@@ronleight9341 Ok
I enjoyed the video. I lived in Davenport at the time of Cary Grant's passing.
I still have many friends and family there.
Seeing The Adler made me homesick.
One thing I wanted to mention is the location of St. Luke's Hospital was not by Palmer Chiropractic College.
It was located where the current. The
Genesis East Hospital is today.
The name of St. Luke's Hospital was changed to Genesis East. Same location.
I do remember the night this all happened it was very sad.
Was going to mention that, good video though, I wish he could've gotten into The Adler, it's been beautifully restored highlighting its art deco style,
I agree that was not the location of the hospital. I worked at St Luke's at that time and was on shift in the lab when Cary died. It was a very sad night.
It's SO rare that I ever hear anyone tell the true story about him living with Randolph Scott. Most people stop at that point to infer innuendo and leave out the fact that their house was known to be akin to a train station with the amount of women arriving and departing. Those 2 were the OG playas.
Nice job, as always, Jordan!
Yeah I never understood why two men couldn’t live together?? Or was it at their age they were supposed to be married/have families?
Hi Jordan, Cary Grant is a favorite of mine from the old silver screen. Cary was a good looking guy who aged gracefully and always looked distinguished. When you think of the actors he worked with, just amazing. They don't make actors like him anymore. Great vlog Jordan.
Cary Grant is my all time favorite actor! Three of my favorites are “Father Goose”, “An Affair to Remember” and “That Touch of Mink”. He was such a man’s man and had such style and grace. He will forever be a legend in Hollywood.
Check out “The Awful Truth”, 1930’s with Irene Dunne. A perfect match.
Father goose ! Great movie I watched that one rainy Saturday afternoon over 40 years ago I was all of 10 loved it!
Don't know why but Affair to Remember is one of my favorite flicks from that era. Gary Grant and Deborah Kerr.
I love “That Touch of Mink”, “Bringing Up Baby “ and I love, love “Arsenic and Old Lace. He was my favorite and still is.
well said.
He is remembered in Bristol with a statue, the house he was born in has a blue plaque to commemorate him.
He was such a debonaire man. Great actor. Rest in peace Cary. Thanks, Jordan, for telling us his wonderful story. You and Jah stay safe
Great video. So sad he grew up without his mother. He was a man of integrity.
Thanks for sharing this. My mom and grandma were at that show and said it was completely heartbreaking when they came out and announced his death.
Thanks for a great video on the iconic Cary Grant, a Bristol-born English-American actor. When he was famous he was often seen around Bristol. England, and a relative once bumped into Cary at Bristol Hospital as well as a little traffic mishap with him. Apparently he was a perfect gentleman.
great story,he never really left bristol .Humble man,great man.Who do we have to come close to these greats,who??.
I read Dyan Cannon’s book and she spoke of his LSD use and suggested she try it. She did and was not a fan of it. It’s a really good book, she didn’t bash him. Cary was definitely a huge favorite from that Golden Era. Miss them all 😊 Good Vlog👍🏻
@@JD29903 Dear Cary: My Life with Cary Grant
Such a handsome man, great actor, and that voice!
He was one of the best comedy actors ever!…& the most handsome man to grace the silver screen!!!
Love it when you make old Hollywood video’s. You’re an amazing story teller.
I'm a huge fan of Cary Grant and know so much about him that I am glad you shared your knowledge with everyone. Sadly he never won an Academy Award - probably because he was so good and so naturally charming in every role he played. I also loved him in Arsenic and Old Lace but I love him in his Hitchcock films as well as those marvelous screwball comedies of the late 1930's. He may have been born British but he is an American Icon- a beloved treasure that no one will ever imitate. Thank you Jordan! ☺️🥰☀️😍❤️😊🌴🦩
Mr. Grant was awarded a special Oscar in 1970, based on his very long and distinguished Hollywood career.
@@rivaridge7211 yes but he didn't win a competitive award. Neither did a lot of actors who deserved to be recognized by the Academy.
@@katrinacool Yes Katrina, I would certainly agree with you. My biggest gripe against the "Academy" is how (to my mind) one of the greatest actors of the 20th Century, and a seven-times Oscar nominee, would never score a win. Of course, I am referring to Richard Burton. Cheers and thanks for your good thoughts on Mr. Grant!
@@rivaridge7211 and let's not forget the talented Peter O'Toole who also was nominated 8 times but no wins except for an honorary award in 2003.
Nice comment, Katrina. Cary was indeed Amazing.
He was a heart throb to the ladies for sure.
RIP Mr. Grant aka Archibald Leach.
a dashing / dapper
gent indeed.!
✌🏻🌏🇦🇺✌🏻😀
My town!!! So cool you were here. Prince got sick on his plane not too long before he died and they landed at the airport here and took him to one of our hospitols here as well. Still have the articles from our paper when Cary died here.
I've heard Father Goose wasn't very popular but our family loved it. Watched it every time it was on TV.
PETTICOAT and FATHER are wonderful films.
Cary Grant defined what being a "Movie Star" was all about. Such a humble begining and ending to what is argueably Hollywoods biggest Movie Star - a bygone part of Hollywoods Golden era. Only one other name - in my books - that I would have loved to meet face to face other than Cary Grant - that being Elvis.
After all these years, I still love Cary Grant. Can't tell you how many times i watched "Charade" -- what a great movie!
Thank you Jordan for sharing, not only the location, but the biography of a man who was without doubt one of the all time Hollywood greats.
My best friend, for many years, had been Cary Grant’s majordomo at his East 49th St, NYC townhouse, & he just adored the man.
I was lucky enough to hear the most wonderful stories about him. I was even at my friend’s apt once when Cary Grant phoned.
By all accounts he was a fabulous person.❤
Thanks for the post!🙋♀️🥂🌹
Cary's daughter Jennifer Grant named her son Cary, so Cary Grant lives on.
Worth 60 million when he died left it to his last wife and daughter
@@walterraulerson2986 I'm seldom say anything negative about a person, but Cary was a known cheapskate, I'm sure it's on the internet?
@@robertcarly4186 ok, and the issue is? remember his beginning.
He was the Spokesman for Faberge' after he retired. I remember seeing the commercials when I was a kid. He was ALWAYS so gorgeous! Even as an older man. I loved him!!
Cary Grant was also hilarious in “Bringing up Baby” with Katherine Hepburn. Thanks Jordan for all your efforts to your vlogs and for sharing Jah with us as well. ❤️🙏🏻🐕🦺⭐️
Pamala Meyering.......my mother and I was fortunate to see his Conversation with Cary Grant in Claremont, CA.....Amazing we were in awe!!!!!
There’s a statue of him in millennium square in Bristol. I didn’t know that about his mum. Must find out more info! Cheers for the fab vid x
He had a good long fulfilling life. As far as his acting career goes, he had it all...the skills, the looks, he just fit the part. Its said that on top of everything else he was just a great guy.
One elegant gentleman. Thanks Jordan. Love to the hound 🐾🐾🐾🐾
I never knew how Carey Grant left us. That was a amazing tribute Jordan! We like how you showed the old location of the hospital. Ty for your efforts and quality content shall I say Prolific content always something different & so interesting! Luv&Peace a hello to Jah!🤝🏼✌🏼
Loved him and Jimmy Stewart. Thank you for this.
I loves them too.ill add two iconic actors more at least for me rock Hudson and Gregory peck..
They all are eternal on the screen.🙏🙌🥰
Cary Grant and Jimmy Stewart are two of my most favorite actors ❣️❣️
Mine too!! ☺️
Always the sensitive gentleman
I loved Carey, he was funny and sincere and a total joy to watch. He had a natural way of being funny that you don't see often. Thank You for you the great post.
I use to watch Cary's films with my Mom. I LOVED his Acting Style, he was just a Cool Guy. I still watch some of those old movies from time to time. Beautiful job on this one, Jordan.
I’m sorry Jordan , I have Lived in Davenport all my life, even worked at St Luke’s Hospital in the early 80’s, that was not the location of the Hospital ,it is now called Genesis East ,1220 E Rusholme St , Davenport ,Ia, big fan of your channel
I recently visited the oldest music hall in the world. The Britannia in Glasgow Scotland. They said Gary Grant started out there as a juggler and acrobat. He went to states and one day Mae West was moaning about the leading men she was getting and looking out the window said why can’t I get a man like that? He was called in and the test history.
I was 16 years old in 1986 and I remember this event! Sad 😞 when such a great man passed away! Thanks for sharing this video and hope you enjoyed your stay in The Quad Cities.
Same! 😊
Cary Grant was such a talent! Penny Serenade, The Bishop’s Wife, To Catch a Thief, Room for One More, North by Northwest are just a few of my favorites. I didn’t realize he died in Iowa. This was a very interesting video. Thank you.
It's easier for me to list his films I don't care for - and HE was never The Issue... and frankly, his presence lets me rewatch those. 1957's PRIDE AND THE PASSION... 1946's NIGHT AND DAY (biopix of Cole Porter)... 1940's HOWARDS OF VIRGINIA... I haven't seen many of his pre-1933 films because they weren't preserved or put onto home-video.
Lived here all my life and never knew this,thank you so much for covering this.
He was so handsome. That's so sad about his mother. I'm glad he was able to find her and save her. I never knew that about his life.
I like your sunglasses Jordan. 🕶 Thank you for sharing another great video with us. 👍
I really enjoyed this, my favorite videos are the ones on old Hollywood actors - I love the ones you did in Cali.
Jordan - I am so very appreciative to you for making this video. I adored Cary Grant and have every movie, biography, etc ..When I was lucky enough to go to Hollywood years ago, all I mainly wanted to do was see his star on the walk of fame and see his hand and feet prints in the Grauman's Chinese Theater's courtyard. I wish that perhaps there could at least be a centograph (sp?) somewhere in Hollywood for him. I would like to travel to Bristol one day and see the statue they have there for him. A truly underated dramatic/ comedic actor and a class act, through and through. Thank you for this gem, Jordan. You made my day. Blessings - Judith 🎭🎵
Did his daughter go into Hollywood like he did
@@rosalindsey6841 She did. I think mostly for TV as opposed to movies. I'm not sure if she is still in the industry. She is the spitting image of her mother, Dyan Cannon.
Fascinating segment , I remember being a kid watching his movies with my sister , he was her favorite actor . This was very entertaining , thanks 👍 Jordan !
Wonderful! Thank you!
My 4 young Grandkids just watched "Arsenic and old lace" last weekend !!!
They loved Uncle Teddy.
Thought brother Jonathan was Frankenstein!
One of my favorites!
I’m a huge Cary Grant fan- i.e. North by Northwest is my favorite movie. Didn’t know he died in Davenport. Just stayed there the other night. Thanks for the backstory. Fascinating!
Really enjoyed this vlog (well, I enjoy all of them!). Very interesting to learn of Cary Grant's life. I never knew of his past. Very interesting!
I’m from Davenport, born and raised.
I was 12 at the time, I adored Cary Grant, I had wanted to get tickets to see him that night.
He passed at the hospital I was born at
It was sad but Davenport isn’t a small town lol. Makes it sound like a 2500 people town when people describe it. The quad cities has over 379k people. People magazine called it a dirt water town. Actually Davenport has a nice river view with very nice homes, as the one poster said. Cary enjoyed his walk.
Hey! My hometown! I hope we treated you well. 😀
The fact that you were in my hometown is absolutely insane
Great video! Knowing you are also an Elvis fan, there’s a great photo (actually video too I think) of Cary Grant talking to Elvis backstage in Las Vegas after a show. It’s part of the documentary movie, Elvis That’s The Way It Is.
Fantastic vlog, loved the locations and photos used, never learnt what happened to Cary Grant,now I have,cheers Jordan.
I live in the Quad Cities (Illinois side- Davenport is in the Iowa side) but I remember this. It was shocking when he passed.
Literally sitting in Davenport for 39yrs and didn't know he died at the theater...I was 3 my mom probably remembers it...thanks man
I remember the night it happened. I was working in a grocery store in another town in Iowa. Word was out by 7pm he had died. Funny to hear it was actually later that evening. People will talk!
My mom grew up in Davenport. I have been there many times. We still visit family there. Drove through this last June. Love Cary Grants movies. My favorite is BRING UP BABY.
O I'm so happy you have made this vedio
I'm not from here but I'm leaving now I never even Cary grant existing anyway I saw his photo with Randolf Scott I emedietly I felt his connection my first vedio was your documents.about Cary grant something about him his soul it's like pure thank you for sharing All the love's him
My favorite Cary Grant movie is People Will Talk. I have one of his biographies. In the book, the author says that Cary would not agree to having any of his one man shows filmed. Would be nice if he had allowed it. We would now have those available to enjoy, along with his films. Sadly, there are only a few short audio only recordings that were made of these shows, some which have been posted on RUclips.
I love anything about Cary Grant. THE BISHOPS WIFE...my fave Cary Grant movie. Gorgeous, smart and talented.
Great job Jordan! I am an old Hollywood movie fan like so many. To Catch a Thief is my favorite of his. He looked so good in that movie and really highlighted the very best in Grace Kelly in my opinion. Plus I am a Hitchcock fan. Thank you for doing what you do best! Continued Blessings and Support. ~Love&Light♥️Carli
Thank you for this! My favorite actor ❤
Jordan I just wanted to tell you how much I love your programs. You pay such respectful tributes to the people and places that you cover,🌻
His star still shines!
I really enjoyed your commentary on Cary Grant. You really do your homework.
I'm a big Cary Grant fan. This was a great vlog. Thanks Jordan.
I did not know these things about Cary Grant. This was so interesting. Thank you for a very good video.
I enjoyed this video and thank you for sharing with us, you did Cary Grant justice Jordan and thanks for showing that loveable pup jah.
Great tribute with a lot of interesting background information. I live in Davenport and remember this happening; was huge news here, of course, and so shocking and sad. P.S. You should probably do an "update" on this to correct the information regarding the location of the former St. Luke's Hospital, which as others have noted, is still at the same location on E. Rusholme St. and is now known as Genesis East (the former Mercy Hospital was renamed Genesis West; both are substantially larger now.) Interestingly, my former neurologist attended Mr. Grant when he was brought to the hospital; I once joked, years later, that he shouldn't put this on his resume, but instantly regretted the dark humor. I could see he felt badly that there was nothing that could be done to save Grant's life.
I love Cary Grant. Thankyou for your information. I love in the Quad Cities and never knew this. Great job
I think it's strange that someone of his stature who is that old isn't feeling well enough to perform their show that he wasn't taken to the hospital earlier to get checked out.
He had been healthy most of his life, and I doubt he complained of not feeling well. When he was filming I Was a Male War Bride, he had hepatitis, and his co-star, Ann Sheridan, said she looked at him and thought he looked sick. She touched his forehead, and he was burning up from a fever. He had to be hospitalized. But he would have kept on performing if she had not said something. I think he was the type to ignore any illness and keep working. "The show must go on." When he was being taken to the hospital, he kept apologizing for missing the show. That's the kind of person he was, bless him.
Strokes are just that. No warning now they still have 4 hours to help but not every hospital is equipped to help stroke victims
Thanks Jordan. I loved all the movies you mentioned. His Girl Friday was anothet. I remember on Arsenic and Old Lace he mentions the name Archie Leach.
My hometown was mentioned in Arsenic & Old Lace. One of the towns his brother killed someone, South Bend, Indiana.
Enjoyed your informative, good -hearted video about the great Mr. Grant! Thank you. Just subscribed.
Youre welcome Jordan!!!!!!! Thank you so much for your videos. I have a fascination with people and hollywood and pop culture etc and your videos are so entertaining and ive been a fan for years. Thank you for what you do!!!!!! Your videos always lift my spirits up!!!!! Its an honor to be part of your patreon :)
loved his movie people will talk and if you havent watched it jordan ..what i consider an epic film 0f all time an amazing cast all around...The Philadelphia Story
I truly enjoy ALL of your videos Jordan. I love ALL the RUclips suggestions offered for your videos. Even if they are one, two, six years old I watch them as they ALL contain subjects of interest for me. I’ll repeat myself that I highly appreciate and recommend to ALL viewing each and every one of Jordan’s videos is the sunshine of the day indeed. I really enjoy binge watching them on the weekends. If you’re ever having a not so good day…well, you will feel better after a view. Both entertaining and educational. May we be privileged to many more years of being a part of your community. Blessings indeed to you Jordan. Your Fan, Kat 😊😊😊
This was so interesting..I love watching old Carey Grant.. Gregory Peck and Clark Gable movies..there are not many actors these days that compare to them..I think Elvis probably wanted to be an Actor like them.. more serious..but the Con Artist Parker made him sing and dance..it's always good to see you and Jah..hope your doing great 👍😃
Love Gregory Peck
@@championgreening7320 😊..me too
A great and delightful actor!
Attended his Q&A show in '79 or '80. He was very critical of his own performances. Made a point of giving the financials of each film he discussed. His discussion was more about the business of movies than being a 'star' .
Great video, Jordan. Thank you
I love when you talk about old Hollywood actors
I love Cary Grant. We both originate from Bristol UK. He never forgot his roots.
When I think of Cary Grant, I think of how Cubby Broccoli wanted him to be the first James Bond. They were old friends, and Cubby was shrewd enough to see what a perfect fit he would be, but Grant wasn’t willing to commit to doing a series of films because he considered himself too old at that point. But for anyone who doubts that he would’ve been a perfect Bond, just watch Hitchcock’s “Notorious”. It’s almost a blueprint for a early Bond movie
Cary Grant was never considered for the role of James Bond. David Niven was the first choice.
@@maverick214 Cubby always wanted Grant. They were best friends from the 40s. Period
Very well done! Thank You Jordan!!!
I have 60+ years living in the Davenport, IA area. I've even been a patient at St Luke's hospital myself in about 1967. The location you mentioned in the video near Palmer college was closed in the early 1900's. Cary Grant would have been taken to the same location that the hospital is when I was there in the 1960's and that location is near Bridge & E.Rusholme Streets.
Wow! Fascinating, and what a lovely man thanks for sharing Jordan. Love to jhare, sorry for spelling X
excellent work as always, Jordan! your videos are always so unique -- very informative and well-researched, but always outside the box with information that old Hollywood vids like these don't include. thanks for all you do. keep it original!
Thanks for the vlog and for showing Jah. ❤️❤️
Thank you so much Jordan for this vlog. I am one for actor Cary Grant. He always had been one of my favorite. Love the movies Arsenic and old Lace, Topper,Notorious and North by Northwest. I can name a few more of my favorite of Cary Grant .I just adore him when he played Comedy he was so funny. I think that I was just seventeen when he passed away . Great video. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Great Vlog Jordan.
Grew up in the 70s in the UK, loved Cary Grant films among one of the greats! Never been to Bristol where he was born, but maybe one day. Such a beautiful looking man too with gorgeous eyes, loved his films alongside James Stewart's ones memorably. Heard the story that Matthew tells of his last walk, but supposedly he had a stroke back at the hotel, refused to go to the hospital and he got worse. Only when he slipped into a coma was he transferred to the hospital where he then died I heard. I still love watching his films today.
Hi Jordan! I’m so glad you did this one Cary Grant is my all time favorite! He did some really great movies that weren’t as popular but just as good. I don’t know if you have ever seen this movie “In Name Only” with Carole Lombard and Kay Francis . It is amazing! As usual another good one! Love to Jah!
Thank you for this vlog about Cary Grant. I enjoyed it! 😊
I remember the Swayze crash landing. Amazing how he was able land a plane that size in a residential area with no injuries ! RIP to both.
My all time favourite and loved him from the first film I saw around 8 or 9 years old. May have been Arsenic and Old Lace. Anyway, he knocked me sideways like no other.
Nicely done. Love Cary Grant!
That was great! Thanks for sharing it!
Great vlog Jordan, Carey Grant a favorite actor of mine
I’ve lived in Davenport my whole life and have performed in that auditorium multiple times in my life. I’ve never heard of Cary Grant but I will have to look him up now. Thanks for sharing
