Glancy Mark: Cary Grant, the Making of a Hollywood Legend

The first biography to be based on Grant's own personal papers, Cary Grant: The Making of a Hollywood Legend provides a definitive account of the professional and personal life of one of Hollywood's most unforgettable, influential stars.Most biographies of Hollywood Slebs are usually hagiographies or a collection of salacious stories... So it was with relief that I found Glancy's book does not fall into this trap but takes time to explore and research Cary Grant as a serious subject for a biographer... I so enjoyed reading this book and found it totally absorbing. Mark Glancy goes into detail about Cary's acting and role in all of his films, leaving nothing out and so the reader can appreciate and follow his film career alongside his personal life.
