I couldn't agree more, true superstars, and legends. R I P. Two wonderful actors.

Amen.

Let's not forget Ray Milland - a wonderful actor too!

Cary Grant was from Bristol, England like Bob Hope was born in London.🙂

​@@padijeff5675 The Americans have got Johnny Cash, Bob Hope, and Stevie Wonder, we've got no cash, no hope and no bloody wonder

7byseven Bob Hope was born in South London!☺️

+Ken Scar the measure of a man who looks not for his own glory, but praises all those around him...God bless him, he is sorely missed... a true hero....

So true. Stewart also flew combat missions in Vietnam.

He was a racist.

HR... Piss off...Another "follow the leader" with that propaganda...Do your research

Same here. He is my life hero.

That's a stupid choice of word. The very LAST profanity on any decent persons mind surely ?

This year me 20 year old I love it's wonderful life movie and all movie James stewart, and I come from Thailand

@@MrDaiseymay Boy, daiseymay, have you got a case of the jitters!

But Ricky told them

AmericanWatchdog We have many wonderful movie stars today, and there are great Oscar presentations today. Not sure which you were referring to. In the words of a Jimmy Stewart character, maybe you’re a warped, frustrated old man.

@@ranlive1 No. No one today comes close to people like Jimmy Stewart.

They’ve now been reduced exercises in politically correct pablum. America had tuned them out.

@@ArsPraestigium , you are obviously deeply ignorant of American history and the Red Scare and the Hollywood Blacklist, when production studios hewed to a politically correct dictate created by right wing power brokers and racists. Today there is far more creativity and artistic and speech freedoms than existed for more than the first 60 years of filmmaking. Tuned out? You sound tuned out. A single U.S. film can easily take in more revenue than the combined revenue of all the films produced by any other single country in a year. Americans are perhaps the heaviest consumers of screen media entertainment in the world and probably well over 90% of the content they consume is, for better or worse, domestically produced. “Hollywood” has never been more powerful and people have never been more rapt by what it produces.

I cried too. He is my life hero!

Tom Hanks favorite actor , Isaac Kappy RIP

truth

Yes those men are great through their roles on screen and amazing also off screen particularly in this case Jimmy Stewart. His military record his personal loss of a son to friendly fire in Viet Nam and many other things throughout his life. As for the audience in this clip....If you watch closely they look marginally motivated and majoritively bored and disinterested. Eking out enough applause to look good for a wide angle long distance take!

True

You have an overly nostalgic and romantic view of the past.

Perhaps it was the LSD he took in his earlier days. Cary was probably the first celebrity to try it out, even before Timothy Leary became the "guru" of acid.

@@ralphadamo1857 What does that have to do with good genes? :))

Yes but he died one year before he died....

@@daniellebourgade8701 that’s crazy! What did he do during that year when he was alive but already dead?

@@ralphadamo1857 , “younger days”? You’re off by a few decades and you make it sound as though his use of LSD was somehow illicit. In fact, Grant was administered LSD therapeutically when he was a middle age man undergoing psychotherapy. LSD was not illegal, and it was administered by psychiatrists as a therapeutic psychotropic to assist in the psychotherapeutic process. Many doctors and their patients found it very useful and effective. LSD is now being seriously studied again as a potential therapeutic psychotropic. I would not be surprised to see it used again in medical settings within the next decade or two.

Dracopticon people

Carlos you have to include Charles Laughton Gregory Peck Spencer Tracy fredric March Clark Gable among others in that list. No one comes close nowadays to these great actors

You are absolutely right. That's why my wife and I no longer go to the movie theaters. We watch Turner Classic Movies on TV instead of the new crap that Hollywood is putting out today.

@@193322009 , if you don’t go to films then you really have no way to judge.

They were all men &Women, of their time. We demand different inducements today, it's our own fault.

Pity you had to mention that bum Wayne draft dodger.

Yvette JZzst

Yvette Jones, you said it well, just as I feel.

I share your hope. Mr. Stewart was a wonderful and remarkable man.

allah bless him nice place in heavn aameen

OLD MOVIES ARE REAL MOVIES TODAY MOVIES ONLY VIOLENTS

Is that a Greek name?

What do you think about 2019? And what a pleasure that I had living 3 months while Jimmy Stewart was alive.

me too man...In 2019, I saw again It's A Wonderful Life(James Stewart), Charade(Cary Grant), People Will Talk(Cary Grant), Rear Window(James Stewart) and some other films with these 2 legends...

I think Jimmy was not only a legendary actor, but a humble human being as well

@@user-fi1kt1tj2h what about north by northwest

2020..

joe s No actor now can match Grant, Stewart, Fonda ...

Relf Cepter daniel day-lewis says hi!

Thallys Bandeira Yes, you are right! I forgot about him, shame on me! I should have made a different comment. Because yes, there are great actors nowadays which can match the greatness of the guys from the Golden Age (like you said, DDL, but also, imo, Nicholson, De Niro, Hoffman and Pacino). What I should have said is, that that there were way, way more great actors back in the day than now Because back in the day, there were like 30 great actors (and the same amount of actresses), and only a handful nowadays can match them.

Are you his bloody agent?

Gary Oldman is top notch as well. If he's not looked at as a legend today, I personally think he is, he defiantly will one day he will be.

+robert szvetics And a hell of a a great pilot.

And a diehard Republican who LOVED AMERICA

Mr Stewart would be appalled by the current Republican in the White House.

No he would be appalled at Obama and Hillary. Then the is Billy and the Blue dress

You just had to bring politics into it didn't you! Shameful on your part.

He had some of that Italian youthfulness that Ralph Machio has got now.

two great actors, Cary Grant got a similar honorary oscar fifteen years earlier; Grant should have received more than his two best actor nominations, for so many of his fine performances most definitely "Bringing Up Baby" and "Father Goose" -a very underrated subtle understated performance opposite the great Leslie Caron

I agree Cary Grant should have won one he was a wonderful actor

also Cary Grant gave an oscar worthy performance in "Philadelphia Story" I wonder if Paddy Chafevsky had hired Cary Grant for Network if Grant would have gotten his well deserved competitive oscar, I suppose Cary Grant could have played either the Peter Finch (who won the oscar) role or the WIlliam Holden (who was oscar nominated) role

Jimmy's Oscar was likely given as a reaction to his loss for Mr. Smith Goes to Washington the year before. His work in Philadelphia Story was very good, but Mr Smith was the more important role.

+spcb77 Carotid artery disease is what killed Grant. Unfortunately the disease most often produces no outward symptoms until it's too late (stroke). Cary had a massive stroke right before a stage performance and died later that night. At least he lived a full active life right up until the day he died.

:-):-):-):-)

art balderdash You’re lucky..

Yes they were fine but honestly Katharine Hepburn and Ruth Hussey carried the movie along with John Halliday and Roland Young. I would have liked to see Grant and Stewart switch parts.

Jimmy never failed to give Capra his due for creating two of Stewart's most beloved and remembered characters. BTW, the Oscar he won for "Philadelphia Story" was only given to make up for his being cheated out of the Oscar for "Mr Smith Goes to Washington" the year before.

Cant dream of making like them.

Ummm. They definitely needed language. These were not silent film actors despite what their ages suggested.

@@inkyguy I'm talking foul language not sound. I'm fully aware they weren't silent movie actors.
