The Classic Leading Man Test

[dougo]

I was kind of surprised to see that twistjusty didn't create this one (link from joecab):

Cary Grant You scored 2% Tough, 23% Roguish, 38% Friendly, and 38% Charming!

You are the epitome of charm and style, the smooth operator who steals the show with your sophisticated wit, quiet confidence and flirty sense of humor. You are able to catch any woman you want just by flashing that disarming smile, even if you're flashing it at a kindly aunt or engaging child at the time. When you walk into a room, women are instantly intrigued and even the men are impressed, but you're too nice a guy to steal anyone else's girl...unless the guy deserves it. You're stylish, yes, but you can also be a little bit nutty. However, you're primarily seen as dashing, suave and romantic. Your co-stars include Katharine Hepburn, Audrey Hepburn, and Grace Kelly, stylish women with a sense of fun. Find out what kind of classic dame you'd make by taking the Classic Dames Test.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 0% on Tough You scored higher than 72% on Roguish You scored higher than 72% on Friendly You scored higher than 63% on Charming

You sure know how to pick them. I also got Cary Grant, but bombed out on the Classic Dames by getting Katharine Hepburn (again on a retake).

Katharine Hepburn is bad? Here I thought I passed a test for once. The last test Doug posted declared me a dork.

Not 'bad', but 'disappointing'

I tend to see myself as a Jean Arthur or Carole Lombard, so was expecting to get either of them as a result.

Katharine Hepburn is very very good. Like Spencer Tracy said in Pat and Mike, "there ain't much of her, but what there is is CHERCE."

Whew. For a minute I was afraid that being perfectly happy to get Katharine Hepburn was further evidence of being a dork.

Also try the Classic Second Banana Test by the same author. I got Eve Arden, but I'm not sure I've ever seen anything she was in.

I got Eve Arden too! 99% Anxiety and 99% Sarcastic! tombking keeled over laughing.

I got Jimmy Stewart, not very surprisingly.

I got Humphrey Bogart. Not a big fan, but the description was fairly accurate. :-)

Humphrey Bogart
You scored 35% Tough, 9% Roguish, 33% Friendly, and 23% Charming!

I got Humphrey Bogart too - and Myrna Loy, whoever she is, for Classic Dame.

"Whoever she is"? I am aghast. Go rent the Thin Man or Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House.

I have a Myrna Loy wishlist on my Tivo but they don't seem to show much of her films. Maybe I should set it to auto-record.

All the Thin Man movies are out on DVD now! I put them all in my Netflix queue the other day!
