His suave on screen personna was utterly unique. No male star since has been able to match it.

Not only beautiful, but extraordinarily gifted.

Cary is so handsome, I will love him forever

A.C. RobinsonAug 7, 2012

Someone needs to inform the author that Cary didn't even come to the US for the first time until 1920 at age 16, and there are Ellis Island records to prove it. That would also mean he was just 14 and living as a poor unknown in Bristol, England when he first started dating movie stars! Do even just a smidgen of research guys!

Are we to believe that while being married to the British Barbara Harris he was simultaneously dating the American Barbara Harris (the actress)?
