The day that #CaryGrant met #Elvis after one of his Vegas shows at the International Hotel, August 10, 1970. Cary was a big Elvis fan, and was moved to tears by his show and music. You can see it in this photo, the way he looks at Elvis sure does convey that!
@pickfan1918 Lloyd gets a bit of press, but not as much as Chaplain and Keaton, I agree. Yes, even Fairbanks' swashbuckling flicks don't get big hits these days, either. Yes, these days an "old film" is the 1990s for a lot of people, let alone the B&W's.
@pickfan1918 And to think how both she and Douglas Fairbanks were THE it couple, parties at Pickfair, etc, etc.... There fame was second to none back in the day - now? Only classic film buffs and/or silent film buffs know much of them! So true!
Before he was #CaryGrant, a teenage #ArchieLeach (far right, kneeling) with the Pender Troupe of traveling acrobats, early #1920s. Tall and lanky with some big feet! (Black & white photo in the comments)
