Hume Cronyn : I was in his house in Connecticut

I was in his house in Connecticut

I was a teenager at the time and my mom's boyfriend's brother tended the grounds they lived on. His wife was their cook.

We went up there in 2001. I saw all the posters of plays and movies he and Jessica Tandy had been in. I even saw Jessica Tandy's Oscar and touched it.

My mom's boyfriend said he met James Earl Jones in their kitchen. Hume wasn't there when I visited, but being a film enthusiast it was still awesome to be there and to touch an actual Oscar.

Thanks for sharing that story.

It's a shame Hume Cronyn wasn't there when you visited. I've always heard that he was a nice man.
