There's a Jimmy Stewart for everybody. The comic star of "Harvey" or "The Philadelphia Story". The dramatic star of "Anatomy of a Murder", "Vertigo, "Flight of the Phoenix" or (my daughter's favourite) "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington". There are some of us who think of Jimmy as a cowboy actor as in "Winchester '73", "The Far Country", "The Rare Breed".
To some, he is the poet laureate of The Tonight Show. Yep. There's a Jimmy for everybody.

Very true, CW. I have always found that to be his true charm. My first experience with him was those soup commercials. Funny how you can see so many different sides to one man and still go back to the first.
