Favorite Couples - Part IV || Bogart & Bacall



Shocking though it may seem, I am actually a new convert to the Humphrey Bogart/Lauren Becall fan camp. 
However, the first time I saw "The Big Sleep" I was sold.
The Hollywood Couple. All others are pretenders.

Enjoy their chemistry below:








So much class, I think I'm blushing.
...Beautiful people...

Favorite Couples Part III || Walter & Hildy


One of my Top 10 favorite films, His Girl Friday is nothing without 
the dynamic duo that is Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell.

The banter...oh my, the banter...
So many wisecracks, puns, and insinuations zing by whenever they start at 
each other; their dysfunctional relationship is a riot to watch. 

A few stills to illustrate their passionate relationship...^-^

Walter Burns: There's been a lamp burning in the window for ya, honey... here.
Hildy Johnson: Oh, I jumped out that window a long time ago.

Favorite Couples Part II || Loy & Powell




 Myrna Loy & William Powell

Appearing in a total of 14 films together, Myrna Loy and William Powell are my definition of onscreen chemistry. They always seemed like old chums having way too much fun in every scene they shared. Witty, charming, mischievous; they make domesticity look like the greatest thing since sliced bread. Enjoy their adorable hooliganism below:

Aren't they darling?
Unfortunately all that mushy make-believe in Hollywood never sparked anything in really life for the comical duo. And what a shame too because their decedents would have been quite fabulous. ;)

Parts III and IV coming soon!
