Grant and Stewart were great actors and great people. They kept their politics to themselves and did not tear others apart. I wish they were still with us.
you know i was born at the wrong time. i hate many stars to day( not all.. i love steve carell) but many stupid stars with know class i sit on my computer and watch these good old shows and stars. just wish my friend could appreceite it (im only 14) they all think im crazy
@TheDeanmartinfan1 Ah, don't be sad. Your lucky you live in the 21st century, you can enjoy all the greatness of the previous centruies plus this one!
I love James Stewart, he was so handsome and loved his voice. Its weird seeing them at this age I bet they had a fantastic time with all the old hollywood stars, wish i had been around then to meet some of them. I loved how the women were very lady like and the men wore suits and were so manly looking, I love my black and white films so much better than todays.
The best actor i have ever seen (honestly idon't meant say the Greatest) or about his looking and all the rest bullshit, but he was the best actor in the world nearly perfection
Do me a favor America.......gather your children and make them watch this clip. Tell your children that these two gentlemen, Cary Grant and James Stewart, were real movie stars. These were two giants of the movie industry. These gentlemen were not reality "stars", were not "celebrities", they were not Kardashian's or Hilton's who are famous for absolutely nothing. Tell your children that these were two of of greatest Hollywood stars in all of the entertainment industry.
@scorps666 Well said, now can you and your fellow Americans please do yourselves a favor and go review the English grammar to see when an apostrope is properly used. Even professional writers and editors have become illiterates now. One uses an apostrophe for the possessive, NOT the plural form. The plural of Hilton is Hiltons (without apostrophe), the term Hilton's (with apostrophe) implies belonging to/regarding/concerning Hilton. Pass it on to your compatriots and schoolteachers.
@100Soulpower actually, Kirk Douglas and Sidney Poitier are both still alive. Both amazing actors that sadly aren't working anymore. But for current actors...Tom Hanks is a far better choice than Ben Affleck in my opinion.
@biganimefan84 I agree, I think I've seen footage of Sidney Poitier receiving an honorary Oscar. I didn't genuinely think that Affleck would be honoured like this, just wish there were more actors like Stewart and Grant around today, not just for their talent, but their character and attitude.
It's not only cool to see the duo from "Philadelphia Story" reunited, but also cool to see Alfred Hitchcock's two best, and most recurrent, leading men on the same stage at the same time.
respect humility sens of perspective passion modesty elegance versatility warmth learnedness gratitude kindness talent love eloquence humour self deprecation loyalty ..............you gave us a wonderful mr Stewart......thank you
On a more serious note, will we have two more iconic actors like Cary Grant or James Stewart again? Any more versatile Hollywood actors who will star in well made films?
Sad to think that now the honorary award isn't even part of the main show, and this would be trimmed in favour of younger, sexier stars staring confusedly at an autocue.
what a lucky people for being there that night.. getting to see two legendary Hollywood actors on same stage.. it's like you saw Leonardo Da Vinci and Michaelangelo at the same time for painters..
Never agreed with his politics, but he was my favourite actor, fought in WW2, and shared my birthday (20 May)! Cary Grant's citation wasn't entirely accurate. In films by Anthony Mann and Alfred Hitchcock, Stewart played some unpleasant characters, and George Bailey (It's A Wonderful Life) also had a dark side. It eeally annoys me that youngsters know John Wayne but not James Stewart, and Wayne was a one note actor.
@griffin324 you missing one for harvey so you mean four. LONG LIVE JAMES MAITLAND STEWART. one of the greatest men to every walk the face of this earth
Philadelphia Story is one of the best classic films ever. The scene that Grant refers to is my favorite scene. You can see Cary trying hard not to crack up because Jimmy Stewart is so hilarious.
@ascarbo27 oh my gosh! I feel the same way! I just started watching some of his movies and I fell hard for him, lol. I'm 29 and only wish that I could have grown up watching this wonderful and honorable man. There will never be another like him and I only wish there was more of his kind out there. I absolutely love who he was as an actor and as a person.
Instead of being so morose and sad about how we shall never see great men like these again on stage, we should be happy that they lived and they maybe had the chance to inspire actors of the younger generations to go on and make beautiful art work like them.
I messes with Jimmy Stewart. I never even seen footage of him when he was older. I'll always remember his magnificent performances in many of Hitchcock's amazing movies. He define actor.
Actors like these is why I continue to watch classic cinema versus the vulgar, violent or romantic silliness of movies today. Not to mention the lack of true acting talent of the many "mega stars of today". Yes, Hollywood did have royalty and these were the truest of STARS.
@rosieriv Peggy Ashcroft won the Oscar® for her performance in "A Passage to India" at the 57th Academy Awards® in 1985 it was presented by Ryan O'Neal and accepted by Angela Lansbury. That is the Oscar Angela Lansbury is holding.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i disa gree i think jimmy is a wonderful man, but horrible actor... he was too over the top.. he never made u forget it was jimmy stewart playin someone...unlike carey grant or tom hanks who can make u totally suspend disbelief.and think they are the character u see....
Huh? This 'method acting' that you refer to did not come into being in Hollywood until the 50's. Cary Grant played Cary Grant in every one of his movies. He didn't disappear into anything!
@arlichar11 Whilst people are entitled to their own opinions and all that, in this instance you are just quite simply wrong! Jimmy Stewart was a fabulous actor! I love Cary Grant too and have 43 of his movies but he wasnt in the same acting class as Stewart....you have things the wrong way round. Grabt, wonderful and all as he is, played Grant his entire life.
Not only was he a wonderful actor, a kind, decent, and thoughtful person, but few remember he rose to the rank of brigadier general in the U.S. Air Force Reserve, having volunteered as a pilot during World War II and continuing his service after the war ended. He flew on many dangerous bombing mission in service to his country, putting country first before his career and comfortable life. He is truly to be admired.
The thing I love about Jimmy, not only is he a great actor and extremely famous, but also how much people respect him and genuinely love him. I would trade nearly anything to hear him speak in person. But 16 years old is a bit too young to have appreciated him while he was alive. He's a modest, kind, amazing American and human being.
Gentlemen and gentlewomen just seem rare anymore. They've all been washed away by the tides of reality TV. "Class" is extinct...just watch one episode of "Real Housewives..."
Such a truly humble yet incredibly dignified actor which in this speech shows so many human qualities directly and indirectly. God Bless Jimmy whereever you are...
You know .. What amazes me is the class these actors had on and off the screen. Todays actors make a mockery and an abomination of the hollywood of yesterday. They are for the most part a disgarce to the silver screen with their off color behavior and terrible screen side manners.what a shame this world has become.
Someone explain to me why the old color is so much more beautiful than the color they use today. I'm thinking of the old techniclor process(3 strip). To me it went hand in hand with the magical illusions created on screen by the likes of Hitchcock, Minnelli, Cukor etc. Why did that color film dissappear all of the sudden. I'd really like a response from someone in the know. I would so appreciate this!
3-strip Technicolor was phased out when Eastmancolor was introduced, circa 1953. Eastmancolor required only one camera and strip of film, vs. the 3 required for Technicolor. However, for some years many films shot in Eastman had dye-transfer Technicolor release prints made. The dye-transfer process exaggerated the color and contrast, and is what many people think of fondly when remembering Technicolor.
I'm flabergasted that anyone would make any sort of unkind remarks about this man. (Cary Grant) Both he and James Stewart were such unique people and actors and we won't see their like again. I admired both of them so very much. Some of the remarks on YouTube in general are so uncalled for. Why can't we all go by the old adage of "if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all."
@dancingbutrfli Not a lot of classy people, anymore. The internet provides a place for fools and cowards to spew their garbage without the threat of genuine repercussions. I agree with you; it gets me mad, too. But class and dignity are two qualities that are never out of style, and always appreciated.
Jimmy Stewart was a giant. He deserves all the praise and admiration he gets, for now and always. 'Nuff said.

You know .. What amazes me is the class these actors had on and off the screen. Todays actors make a mockery and an abomination of the hollywood of yesterday. They are for the most part a disgarce to the silver screen with their off color behavior and terrible screen side manners.what a shame this world has become.

Someone explain to me why the old color is so much more beautiful than the color they use today. I'm thinking of the old techniclor process(3 strip). To me it went hand in hand with the magical illusions created on screen by the likes of Hitchcock, Minnelli, Cukor etc. Why did that color film dissappear all of the sudden. I'd really like a response from someone in the know. I would so appreciate this!

3-strip Technicolor was phased out when Eastmancolor was introduced, circa 1953. Eastmancolor required only one camera and strip of film, vs. the 3 required for Technicolor. However, for some years many films shot in Eastman had dye-transfer Technicolor release prints made. The dye-transfer process exaggerated the color and contrast, and is what many people think of fondly when remembering Technicolor.

True legends, when one of the reasons to go and see a movie was to see these guys. Brilliant! Carey Grant and Jimmy Stewart, great!

I'm flabergasted that anyone would make any sort of unkind remarks about this man. (Cary Grant) Both he and James Stewart were such unique people and actors and we won't see their like again. I admired both of them so very much. Some of the remarks on YouTube in general are so uncalled for. Why can't we all go by the old adage of "if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all."

@dancingbutrfli Not a lot of classy people, anymore. The internet provides a place for fools and cowards to spew their garbage without the threat of genuine repercussions. I agree with you; it gets me mad, too. But class and dignity are two qualities that are never out of style, and always appreciated.
Jimmy Stewart was a giant. He deserves all the praise and admiration he gets, for now and always. 'Nuff said.
