Check out "His Girl Friday" and "Bringing up Baby" if you haven't seen them.
Those are good but the two 30s comedies that never get mentioned with those that I actually like better are Holiday & The Awful Truth
My favorite Cary Grant movie next to Arsenic & Old Lace is Howard Hawks Only Angles Have Wings.
And an underrated one he did the same year as Arsenic, None But the Lonely Heart written and directed by blacklisted Clifford Odets.
Another late era Grant movie I like is That Touch of Mink were Grant seduces a 40 year old "Virgin" Doris Day.
I like a lot of the other ones mentioned too. Really you can't go wrong with Cary Grant.

I love Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn movies the best...Bringing Up Baby, The Philadelphia Story, and Holiday being my favorites, but any Cary Grant fan should check out The Bachelor and the Bobby Soxer starring Grant and a teenage Shirley Temple. Its hilarious. Its also really weird to see 16 year old Shirley dating 50 year old Cary.

Blade Runner is pretty boring.

You have some good ones to catch up to, although I feel Apocalypse Now is way overrated. I have a hard time making it through it in one sitting because I'm bored most of the time.
The one that was I saw in the theater originally, without the French plantation crap, is the better version. Don't know why they added that stuff back in.

Hitchcock's Notorius is legit. Grant was money in this flick.

Of everything mentioned in this thread, I've seen "It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World", "The Maltese Falcon", and "The Hustler".
I recommend all three.
And I'll nominate "Defending Your Life".

The revised version with the comedic scenes is pure shite. They completely destroyed the atmosphere. The original is probably my favorite movie ever.
