Clark Gable and Joan Crawford, publicity for "Love on the Run", 1936
Two of MGM's brightest stars of the Thirties, Gable and Crawford made eight films together; "Love on the Run", their seventh, probably wasn't one of the better ones. Between - and sometimes during - their respective marriages, the two carried on a passionate on-again, off-again romance, an affair that sometimes garnered more publicity than they - or the studio - would have wished for. It began with their first pairing in 1931 and would frequently be rekindled until a few years after WWII. Crawford later stated that Gable was the great love of her life: "Clark Gable was the only man I ever loved.".
you can read their chemistry in these pictures -no 'acting' there! I had never seen these before..
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing, the magic seen here, was awesome!
ReplyDeleteWhat a couple ! Sadly a marriage would never have worked for them. You just can not see either one giving up their career in the motion picture industry, acting was the sustenance of life for both of them.
