Cary Grant and Randy Scott 1933-45

at their Malibu beach house in 1935. Cary Grant was encouraged to marry in 1934. The disastrous marriage ended a year later--Grant had tried to commit suicide after only a few months. His wife stated in her complaint that he had been drunk and sullen for the duration. After the divorce, Grant went back to live with Scott. [Mann, "Behind the Screen"]
Mr. Blackwell, as Dick Ellis, spent a few months living with Grant and Scott. He said in his memoirs that he considered them, "deeply, madly in love, their devotion complete...Behind closed doors they were warm, kind, loving and caring, and unembarrassed about showing it."
"Good friend Carole Lombard made a near-legendary comment on both their union and Cary's well-known frugality: 'Their relationship is perfect. Randy pays the bills, and Cary mails them.'" [Murray, "Images in the Dark," 1996]
