âWho did Cary Grant say was the love of his life?
âAI Overview
âCary Grant's close confidants [Who?!] have revealed that he considered his frequent co-star and long-time roommate Randolph Scott to be the love of his life.
âGrant and Scott lived together for 12 years in a Malibu beach house during the 1930s. While studio executives pressured them to publicly conform to traditional marital norms to protect their images, the two men maintained an enduring bond.
[N.S.: Right. Numerous Hollywood actors shared apartments for years, on and off, between marriages. This had nothing to do with homosexuality, but was simply a case of friends rooming together (e.g., Hank Fonda and Jimmy Stewart). However, militant homosexualists have in recent years made a habit of saying, âIf you were anyone in Hollywood, and Youâre Dead, You were Gay.â These literary frauds variously misinterpret innocent remarks (treating jokes as literal statements), or simply fabricate facts. For instance, Cary Grant used to joke, referring to his roommate Randolph Scott as âMy husband.â Voila! They were lovers.
Another bit of fakery sure to net one a book deal, is to assert that a leading man who was a notorious womanizer, had a one-time, homosexual fling.
Another literary fraudâwho was notoriously unattractiveâasserted that Grant had granted him a long interview, during which the matinee idol made a pass at him. I am not going to name the fraud, and give him publicity.
âIn 1976, while reflecting with a close friend [Who?!], Grant reportedly broke down and admitted he had been in love with Scott from his earliest days in Hollywood, noting how dreadful it was âhaving to let go of him in my heartâ. The two men were known to maintain an affectionate, private connection decades after their cohabitation ended.â
N.S.: Late in life, Grant said he expected people to claim he was âgay,â after he died. And he proved prescient.
