Romanian Cary Grant

I love people watching especially when I don't know anybody. Yesterday we attended the Romanian Church Festival in the neighborhood Elbow Street parking lot. I spotted an amazing face and leaned into my husband, "look behind you, a Romanian Cary Grant!" The man probably age 35, was very tall and had a peach polo shirt and black slacks on. His chin was cleft with two cherry tomato curves on either side. His head was huge, as movie stars heads always are. His hair was black and his cheekbones and forehead were broad. I was fascinated by his face and would've loved to draw him. There were many other interesting faces too who were not resembling American movie stars. These were the authentic handsome and beautiful faces from Romania. A little girl danced with a few of us and she had huge brown eyes and wore a white hat embroidered with a simple eyes and whiskers kitten face. Many of the men and women were dressed up in colorful  traditional Romanian embroidery on white blouses. Everyone was having fun.

Cary Grant.
