Jean Arthur, who Stevens called "one of the greatest comediennes the screen has ever seen," garnered an Academy Award nomination as Best Actress.

Charming ladies' man Cary Grant becomes a charismatic matchmaker in his final screen appearance in WALK, DON'T RUN. When English industrialist Sir William Rutland (Grant) arrives in Tokyo on business, the influx of tourists for the upcoming Olympic games makes it impossible to find lodging. So Grant fast-talks his way into sharing an apartment with beautiful Christine Easton (Samantha Eggar) for a few days. To further confuse matters, Grant invites Steve Davis (Jim Hutton), a member of the U.S.Olympic team, to share his half of the apartment. Three's definitely a crowd as Grant plays Cupid between Eggar and Hutton- much to Eggar's stodgy's surprise. Will Grant manage to send his roomies tothe altar? Only if he solves the many comical complications that come his way! Filmed entirely on location, WALK, DON'T RUN is a fitting coda to the dapper, debonair style and screen career of superstar Cary Grant.
