Update: clarification: I project myself back to Cary's time, rather than bring him to my time. He is progressive and adaptable, but I'm the one who has to take responsibility for skewing the timeline.
 
Update 2:  an archetypal Cary Grant film plot just waiting to happen, really.  Think about it:
 
"First let me co-star in your next film. During the filming we will fall in love, conduct a whirlwind off-set romance, and announce to the world that we will tie the knot *as soon as it's legal for heterosexual men to marry each other*."

"Marry Me, Cary Grant!"

Marry me, Cary Grant! I love you!

First let me co-star in your next film. During the filming we will fall in love, conduct a whirlwind off-set romance, and announce to the world that we will tie the knot *as soon as it's legal for heterosexual men to marry each other.

What else do you *want* in a Cary Grant film, other than a female co-star?
