I used to recommend To Say Nothing Of The Dog to everyone. It is brilliant. It is the only novel I've read that stars Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn directed by Billy Wilder. The whole series is amazing, each a different subgenre.

I hadn't thought of her in a while. Thanks.

Grant was first a comic actor. He had just started his transition to serious acting. McConaughey could have done it, but he is too old now. I'll suggest William Jackson Harper. It is a bit close to his The Good Place role but not typecasting.

BTW, Grant hated his performance in the movie. I saw it recently and agree. He is too up, too manic. The film would benefit from a slower burn.
