"You are confusing Stewart Granger with Farley Granger. It was Farley
who appeared in Rope opposite John Dall. Although I think Stewart would
have been rather hot in it."

I seem to recall that Farley Granger was a pretty accomplished piano
player. Back in those days, a lot of stars were accomplished in what
were called the 'gentle arts'. They were expected to be able to play the
piano, sing, quote poetry, comment on art, be rather well rounded
people. If they weren't when they started the studio system educated
them. Though it had its drawbacks, the studio system did have some very
strong things to recommend it.
