The Man Who Wanted to Be Cary Grant - Bob Pritchard - Bog

George is at rock bottom: His wife is leaving him, his job is gone, and even his kids can barely stand him. But instead of wallowing in despair, George opts for a drastic makeover. Inspired by his cinematic hero, Cary Grant, he sets out to reinvent himself, enlisting the help of modern-day mentors akin to Henry Higgins and Colonel Pickering from 'My Fair Lady.'
Suddenly, George is the toast of Hollywood. He rubs elbows with A-listers like Bradley Cooper and George Clooney, while acclaimed directors like Spielberg are captivated by his charm.
But when George's estranged mother orchestrates a reunion with his childhood love, he's forced to ponder the cost of his new life. Is this glamorous façade worth losing the one who got away? The choice becomes even more complicated when he spots her in the arms of another man.
Returning to LA, George finds that his friends and family have teamed up for the ultimate romantic intervention - with a celestial assist from Cary Grant himself.
