Line 7:
In a career that spanned thirty years, some of his more famous films were the screwball comedies ''[[His Girl Friday]]'', ''[[Arsenic and Old Lace]]'' and ''[[Bringing Up Baby]]'', the comedy-soap opera ''[[The Philadelphia Story]]'', and [[Gentleman Thief|several collaborations]] with the director [[Alfred Hitchcock]], most notably ''[[North by Northwest]]''. He retired from acting in 1966, feeling, perhaps correctly, that as he aged the movie world was beginning to pass him by.
In 1970, he happily accepted an honorary Oscar for his body of work, but he never again appeared on-screen. In later years, he married a succession of beautiful younger women, experimented with LSD as a means of confronting his inner demons... and when a fan magazine sent a telegram reading HOW OLD CARY GRANT?, famously wrote in response [[Crowning Moment of Funny|OLD CARY GRANT FINE. HOW YOU?]]<ref>
