She was “scandalous” in North By Northwest,..for the time.
She played the mom in "Nothing in Common".
She retired at age 97? Wow. Clint retired at 96.
The fantabulous Eve Kendal in that film. They pushed the envelope for suggestion in that film, for the time. She was fantastic!
Trust me.
There is no landing strip anywhere b hind Mt Rushmore
I just started watching “North by Northwest” on Amazon Prime. Such a great movie. I haven’t seen it in maybe 20 years.
I watch it about once a year, really a good ol flick.
Shared some funny stories about Cary Grant and Paul Newman. Married only once - for 65 years!
