Blind Buy - Cary Grant Collection

Hi

Is Cary Grant Collection (Father Goose/The Grass is Greener/Indiscreet/Operation Petticoat/That Touch of Mink) collection worth a blind buy?

Thanks in advance

If you like Cary Grant, and those kind of comedies, then most certainly.

"Movies should be like amusement parks. People should go to them to have fun." - Billy Wilder

"Subtitles good. Hollywood bad." - Tarzan, Sight & Sound 2012 voter.

"My films are not slices of life, they are pieces of cake." - Alfred Hitchcock

"My great humility is just one of the many reasons that I am vastly superior to everyone else." - Ramrod Clerk

I can only speak of "Operation: Petticoat" and "Father Goose".

"Operation: Petticoat" is a classic, as far as I'm concerned. Cary Grant and Tony Curtis at their best. All the hijinx getting a beat up, pink submarine to survive WWII is quite hilarious. "Father Goose" is a lesser comedy, but still quite enjoyable with him having to deal as a castaway dealing with a bunch of kids and their caregiver.

If you like more of the comedy side of Cary Grant, rather than his romantic side, this is probably a good collection.

I have Operation Petticoat, That Touch of Mink, and Father Goose.

IMO, all are quite enjoyable. I had never before seen Father Goose, and found it to be surprisingly charming.

If you're in any way a Cary Grant fan, these titles would be in your collection already! Since they are not, I'm presuming you aren't particularly a Grant buff so I wouldn't suggest a blind buy, rent them first.
