"Movies?" asked the former matinee
idol. "I don't want to make the blasted things."
Cary Grant was in Seattle this week for a
charity event when reporters asked the 74-year-old former heartthrob
when he would come out of retirement.
"I'm ancient," he said. 'I'm sure I'm
a disappointment to everybody. I find that when I meet people they
say, 'Oh you still look great.' That word 'still' means something,
connotes something.
"Also I find that when they're looking at
me, they think about the movie they saw of me last night with nice
white teeth and dark hair. Their first impression is disappointment
and secondly, they think to themselves, 'Have I changed that
much?'
I don't know how to reassure them that we're all
going to do it."
