<b>Cary Grant</b> <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000026/">Cary Grant</a>, born Archibald Alexander Leach, set the standard for Hollywood’s charismatic actors with roles in classic films throughout the 1940s, 50s, and 60s.  When Grant wasn’t taking to the movie sets as his suave self, he retreated to a quiet, restored movie colony property in Palm Springs, CA for over 20 years.  (Lauren Riefflin: ZILLOW)

<b>Cary Grant's Living Room</b> Though most of his performances were timeless, with a few nabbing Grant Academy Award and Golden Globe nominations, some critically acclaimed favorites were “Bringing up Baby” (1938), “An Affair to Remember” (1957), “North by Northwest” (1959), and “Charade” (1963).  While Grant never managed to walk away with a trophy, he was <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cary_Grant">awarded the coveted Honorary Award</a> at the 42nd Academy Awards “for his unique mastery of the art of screen acting.” See more <a href="http://www.zillow.com/homedetails/%28undisclosed-Address%29-Palm-Springs-CA-92262/2127807426_zpid/">photos of Cary Grant’s former home </a> (Lauren Riefflin: ZILLOW)
