] Date Posted: 10:24:20 01/18/08 Fri Who knew?! I often see the great farcical comedy (is that redundant?) The Awful Truth, on TCM. Irene Dunne and Cary Grant play off of one another, brilliantly! But there is a handsome, cornball of a hotel neighbor...quite strapping and tall, with lovely blonde hair, and he kept looking so familiar to Dad and I. Then it hit me, it is Ralph Bellamy!! I had only known him as an older actor, and he didn't age as well as his younger looks promised. I knew him as an older actor...he played a lot of doctor roles and senators, or ruthless businessmen. So how funny was it, to see him acting like a corny, bumpkinesque (reallee, bumpkinesque?? ha!) Oklahoman oil man. Here he is in this funny film! ![]() By the way, Irene does the greatest scene, when attempting to chase away a suitor's family, where she plays Cary's floozy sister, and does a cute but brash song and dance. I'm always amazed at what a great commedian she is! I also think the movie should end right after that scene, when she and 'hubby' get into the car, laughing, and clearly loving and admiring one another...I would have said "CUT! It's a wrap!", right then! [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
