Down-and-out Londoner Ernie Mott makes the best of things - finding love here, dabbling in crime there. Still, there's a core of decency in Ernie. But a world of poverty and despair has little use for decency. Cary Grant pIays Ernie in a milestone work set just before World War ll. Gone is the usual Grant eIegance. lnstead, wistful Cockney Ernie is cIoser to the star's 'umble roots and Grant took great pride in his performance, which earned him an Academy Award nomination as Best Actor. He aIso heIped lure Ethel Barrymore back to HolIywood, and she responded vibrantly with 1944's Oscar-winning Best Supporting Actress portrayal of Ernie's dying mother. Let the moods of this masterwork wash over you. ln its ebb and flow you'II find a moving eIoquence cIose to the heart of the fiIm's leading man. |
