- W4248380634 abstract "When the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor brought the United States into the Second World War, Cary Grant finally felt able to apply for US citizenship and then to serve in the US military. He also married Barbara Hutton, and they were dubbed “Cash and Cary” in the press. While he waited for his citizenship papers, he continued making films. In George Stevens’ The Talk of the Town (1942) he vies with co-star Ronald Colman for the affections of Jean Arthur. Anxious that Stevens was favouring Arthur, Grant was unhappy making this film. Afterward, he embarked on the Hollywood Victory Caravan, a fundraising tour of American cities, and he was touched to see the public’s affection for him. With director Leo McCarey and co-star Ginger Rogers, he made Once Upon A Honeymoon (1942). The original story, co-written by McCarey, appears in some respects to be an apologia for Barbara’s Hutton’s previous marriage to a Prussian-born aristocrat who served in the German army during the First World War. Still eager to serve in the military, Grant made one more film at the behest of RKO. Mr Lucky (1943) is a “conversion narrative” in which he plays an initially cynical gangster who ultimately volunteers to serve his country. While making it, the military ruled that no one over the age of 38 could enter the services. Grant, who turned 39 as Mr Lucky was completed, would not be able to serve his adopted country." @default.
