Cary Grant events, screenings and a biennial weekend festival (even years). Cary Grant was born Archibald Leach in Horfield, bristol in 1904. We aim to celebrate his Bristol roots, develop new audiences for his work and recreate the golden age of cinemagoing. We plan to do some screenings in 2019 around the BFI season. Next festival proper is 2020, 100-year anniversary of Archie Leach emigrating to New York.
