Description

Cary Grant signs on for "'Notorious,' to be directed by Alfred Hitchcock"

Partial DS, three pages, 8.5 x 11, July 23, 1945. Agreement between Grant and Vanguard Films in which he agrees to "portray the leading male role of 'Devlin' in a feature photoplay presently entitled 'Notorious,' to be directed by Alfred Hitchcock." Comprising pages "1," "4," and "20," the contract outlines Grant's responsibilities and provides a general production schedule and payment terms. Signed at the conclusion in fountain pen by Cary Grant and countersigned by producer Daniel T. O'Shea. In fine condition. Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from JSA. A spy film noir released by RKO in 1946, Notorious has been hailed as a watershed film for Hitchcock artistically, and is widely cited as one of his masterpieces.
