Answer 3

So whats your point, everybodies heard of them,Cary Grant was a good actor but Sophia Loren wasnt up to much was she

Answer 4

Sophia? The most beautiful woman of the 20th century! Fnaar Fnarr! Cary Grant is on record as saying that he wishes he could be Cary Grant all the time. ( As suave as snake s**t)

Answer 5

Cary Grant was a great star and classy to the end. Sophia, while very lovely, was just a studio film hack.

Answer 6

Yes, and my mother met Cary Grant in a train dining car in 1956. See his film North by Northwest if you haven't already - it's great, funny adventure.

Answer 7

Sophia is an extremely sensual woman, classically beautiful ... she was in a brilliant movie, in her prime, I think it was called Two Women, she & her "daughter" travelled across war torn Italy together trying to find shelter (or something like that). There was a scene where she was raped, she showed such strength in that movie. If I remember correctly it was a black & white ... anyone else remember it? I last watched it years ago.

Answer 8

Of course I have heard of them, love Cary Grant.

Answer 9

Nope....never heard of them.

KIDDING! Of course - everyone 30 and up has heard of them at some point. Sophia Loren is still getting exposure as she is planning to pose for playboy....and at the age of 73 (I think) she looks fan-fricking-tastic!

Answer 10

Ohhhhhh yes.
A lot of so-called 'stars' could learn a lot from Loren and Catherine Deneuve.
Did I mention I'm in love with Catherine Deneuve?
Well I am.
So there.
Don't care who knows it.

Answer 11

oh yes! they are both classics! I'm especially a fan of Cary Grant.
