Knitting in the Movies

Today, I was watching Mr. Lucky, the 1943 comedy-drama starring Cary Grant and Larriane Day.  In this film, Grant is a professional gambler who is trying to run a con at a War Relief company.  Larriane Day wants Cary Grant to learn how to knit to aid the war effort.  Then the fabulous Florence Bates (the selfish employer in Rebecca and the kind writer in I Remember Mama), attempts to teach Cary Grant how to knit and purl!  I won't call this continental knitting, but it is a great scene.

Watch and enjoy!
