I think it is great when the Director, Blake Edwards, left in a true gaff at the end of the movie. The older boy playing Tony Curtis’ son, greets Cary with his real name, “Mr Grant” as he steps on the dock! Wonder whose kids got that brief piece of screen time there, 2 boys and the 4 girls barely seen from the second car?
My favorite Cary Grant story:
Late in his life Time Magazine was publishing an article about him and they realized they had no idea what his real age was. So many Hollywood press agents had put out material fudging that over the years that his real date of birth was a mystery.
So they sent Grant a telegram reading, “How old Cary Grant?”
Grant’s reply:
“Old Cary Grant fine. How you?”
I guess you have to be old enough to remember telegrams to get that.
