In some fresh hell of internet dream-casting, The Hollywood Reporter revealed pretty much every blonde actress in Hollywood a selection of actresses they think could play Grace Kelly in the new upcoming biopic about the actress-turned-princess.
Let's take a look at their choices and muse on the possibilities...have some good laughs (and maybe a good cry).
“This museum’s not just about Jimmy Stewart — it’s about America,” says museum host Pat Ward. “His life takes us through the life of The Greatest Generation.”
Offscreen, Stewart was a real-life Boy Scout, a war hero, a father and a consummate gentleman.
The five-time best actor nominee was born in Indiana, Pa., on May 20, 1908. His father owned the local hardware store in a building that today is across the street from the museum honoring his son. The hardware store was a local curiosity because it was where Stewart displayed the 1940 best actor Oscar he won for “The Philadelphia Story.” Customers admired it there next to the cash register when they paid for things like hammers and plumbing supplies.
One of the museum’s most cherished exhibits is the actual front door from the home (of the Stewart family at 918 North Roxbury in Beverly Hills), sold and demolished after Stewart’s death in 1997 at age 89. Visitors peek through the door’s peephole and imagine what it was like to see frequent guests such as Stewart friends Ronald Reagan, Bob Hope, Johnny Carson and Gregory Peck standing outside.
“Growing up there made you not want to grow up,” daughter Kelly Stewart Harcourt is quoted as saying.
The museum shows a life imbued with joy on- and offscreen. Museum board member Pauline Simms says the people today look at the exhibits, recall the movies and marvel at a man so talented and, gosh, just so darn normal.
“The one comment we hear most of all is,‘They just don’t make ‘em like him any more,” she says.
