Then Garland was to replace June Allyson in 1951's Royal Wedding starring Astaire but again due to illness Garland was replaced by Jane Powell. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

That's the team that should have happened again . . . I so wish Cary Grant had done Sabrina. No way would have Audrey chosen aging Bogart over hot William Holden but she would definitely have picked Cary Grant over Holden! OR, as I've said many a time whenever this romantic mismatch of Bogie and Hepburn in Sabrina comes us around here, she WOULD have also ultimately and more believablly gone for the older brother Linus IF Robert Taylor had been cast in the role.

Vidor Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 I think Myrna Loy once said that she regretted never getting to work with James Stewart again after "After the Thin Man". 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Her later film, GUARDING TESS, would have been a perfect reunion with Clint doing Nicolas Cage's role. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Speaking of James Stewart, I've always said that the "Best Couple" in The Philadelphia Story was Cary Grant & James Stewart (their scene together when drunk Jimmy shows up on Cary's doorstep is magic!) and I would have loved to see those two together in more films. They had great chemistry. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

TheGrandMaster Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Since there's so much talk about Audrey Hepburn co-stars in here I'm surprised no one's mentioned she and Gregory Peck yet. Some of the best romantic chemistry ever in Roman Holiday. 9 hours ago, Vidor said: I think Myrna Loy once said that she regretted never getting to work with James Stewart again after "After the Thin Man". Cold have definitely seen them playing romantic leads in the late 30's/early 40's when Stewart was younger. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Dargo Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 I think I would've liked to have seen British actress Tracy Reed here... ...teamed up again with George C. Scott in another movie than Dr. Strangelove... (...but then again here, I don't think I'd have minded seeing her teamed up again with just about ANY actor, come to think of it) 2 Link to post Share on other sites
SansFin Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 On 4/26/2021 at 12:45 PM, filmnoirguy said: Read somewhere in the past that Cary Grant (age 50) was offered role of Linus Larrabee in 1954's Sabrina but turned it down because he thought he would look too old next to Audrey Hepburn (age 25) and William Holden (age 36). So Bogie (age 54) accepted. Guess Grant changed his mind about Hepburn by 1963. He was 200% her age in 1954. He was 175% her age in 1963. This removed much of the creepy factor and is more in keeping with European traditions. It is stated in: The Moon Is Blue by F. Hugh Herbert: "Haven't you ever heard that the girl is supposed to be half the man's age, plus seven?" She was half his age plus five in 1963. This is often considered quite acceptable when it is not a situation where the man is actively pursuing the woman and their relationship grows as a result of other interests.

I would always have laundry to attend to at that point. 😄 2 Link to post Share on other sites
