Yeah, well it shocked the hell out of me. The movie is The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer from 1947 (a very strange movie whose plot involves Grant being forced to date the teenage (underage!) sister of the girl he's in love with - this teen is played by Shirley Temple in her last film appearance).
From the end of the film:
Richard Nugent: Hey, you remind me of a man. Susan Turner: What man? Richard Nugent: Man with the power. Susan Turner: What power? Richard Nugent: Power of hoodoo. Susan Turner: Hoodoo? Richard Nugent: You do. Susan Turner: Do what? Richard Nugent: Remind me of a man...
They say it in such a way that it's clear it was a "thing" that teens did - it didn't come from this movie either. Obviously David Bowie adopted it, but I was expecting Cary Grant to sprout crazy hair and start singing.
