Wow, Cass, you and Carl missed it. When CG sat in the bus next to the lady with the birds, and they showed the guy sitting next to CG, the older guy? That was Hitchcock.

2025-10-31 03:28:24 +0000 UTCThe term "cat burglar" comes from the agile, cat-like climbing ability of a specific burglar named Arthur Edward Young, who was nicknamed "the cat burglar" by the media in 1907. The term was first used in a London newspaper to describe his skill at climbing into upper-story windows.

2025-08-22 06:03:28 +0000 UTCI donβt know if you know this Cassie but Grace Kelly ,like me, was born and raised in Philadelphia . She is what we call βOld Moneyβ Her family the Kellyβs go back a long way in Philadelphia Old money refers to their sophistication Wealth is passed down from generation to generation they are not in the new money class your people to get rich from a business entire or other activities. She met and married Prince Rainier of the fairytale principality of Monaco . Her daughters Princess Stephanie and Caroline were equally Gorgeous. You have to watch. β High Societyβ she is fantastic in that movie and itβs a lot more fun

2025-08-21 05:06:14 +0000 UTCSpeaking of Cary Grant: "An Affair to Remember" (This has to be the greatest tearjerker in film history [well, if you don't include "Old Yeller"]), "The Philadelphia Story" (includes Katherine Hepburn and James Stewart), "Operation Petticoat" (in which Tony Curtis adds to the fun), "The Bishop's Wife" (great for Christmas time), "Houseboat", "That Touch of Mink" (with Doris Day)

2025-08-19 17:28:40 +0000 UTCI thought that was kind of cute. A cat burglar has a bird on one side of him and Alfred Hitchcock sitting on the other side of him. You need to start looking for Alfred Hitchcock in all of his movies; he always makes that cameo.

2025-08-19 16:59:08 +0000 UTCFantastic reaction, ladies! Favorite sister moment: Thinking it's a rom-com, Carly learns it's a Hitchcock film and is suddenly very unsure of things. Cassie: "But it's in France, on the Rivera!" Carly, the look on your face @3:52! "Nothing bad happens in France?!?" Have you even seen a woman who combines such beauty, elegance, flirtatiousness, and intelligence as Francie? How could *any* (single) man resist that woman!?! And as you say, her wardrobe is absolutely *stunning*! Of course, that woman could make a old T-shirt and a pair of sweat pants look like a million dollars... Random observations: * Hitchcock did the quick cameo thing long before Stan Lee. That's him next to Cary Grant in the back seat of the bus! * When they're "casing" the first villa, Francie says, "Palaces are for royalty." How ironic for the future Princess Grace! * Carly getting nervous when someone drives too fast! * Probably my favorite line: "The Cat's got a new kitten." π And the final line is the piece de resistance: "Oh, mother will love it up here!" π€£

2025-08-18 06:06:55 +0000 UTCCary Grant films to watch: "His Girl Friday", "Charade", "Father Goose". I think this list would all be Carly-friendly films.

2025-08-18 02:53:08 +0000 UTCFor another cool European crime caper/romance starring Cary Grant you canβt go past Charade. For another light hearted Alfred Hitchcock, The Trouble with Harry (starring Shirley MacLaine), is a thing of joy.

2025-08-16 13:40:36 +0000 UTCSuch a fun romp and clever dialogue! I burst out laughing at Carlyβs jaw dropping when Grace first kissed CG. She looked like a goddess in that blue gown. Notice he had her lipstick on his lips? Then he wiped it off as he walked away. Grant hated makeup which is why he kept himself tanned so he didnβt have to wear much. This is a nice break from heavier movies/shows.

2025-08-16 13:15:33 +0000 UTCOf course this movie is the whole inspiration for The Pink Panther, the comedy about a bumbling French detective chasing a charming, suave ladies man cat burglar.

2025-08-16 11:46:10 +0000 UTCWe would riot if High Society is watched before The Philadelphia Story.

2025-08-16 11:42:59 +0000 UTC'High Society' would be my next Grace Kelly recommendation - or 'High Noon'
