Athos 108589 Report post Posted April 22, 2012 Christy's post about the movie "The Way you Were" got me thinking about famous Hollywood couples/pairings. Who were your favorites. My all time favorite screen couple: Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall ... "you do know how to whistle, don't you" 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nicolette Vaughn 294340 Report post Posted April 22, 2012 Meg Ryan andTom Hanks in "Sleepless in Seattle" and "You've Got Mail". Richard Gere and Julia Roberts in "Pretty Woman" and "Runaway Bride". The chemistry was just natural with these on screen pairs. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tokan 16826 Report post Posted April 22, 2012 I have to go with the pairing of two of my favourite actors, Sean Connery and Harrison Ford in Indiana Jones and the last crusade. I'm a huge indy fan and just love that pairing. A close second would be Al Pacino and Robert Deniro in heat. They're really only in one scene together but it is an awesome movie. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Athos 108589 Report post Posted April 22, 2012 Nice ... I was thinking romantic pairings, but buddy movies, and of course antagonists are also great. Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy in 48 hours. Rock Hudson and Doris Day Fred Astaire and Audrey Hepburn in Funny Face 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sandimoon 72517 Report post Posted April 22, 2012 I feel the same here as in Cristy's thread. Paul Newman & Elizabeth Taylor. They crackled on screen. Others: Bogey & Bacall. That overbite, those eyebrows, the confidence even at 19 & you could tell he was already in love with her. They were great together. Burton & Taylor in Cleopatra. Still love them. Most expensive affair ever. Kathleen Turner & Michael Douglas in Romancing the Stone, Jewel of the Nile & War of the Roses. I love 48HRS. too but Eddie Murphy & Dan Ackroyd in Trading Places were hilarious. And of course Jay & Silent Bob in anything. lol Sandi 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phaedrus 209521 Report post Posted April 23, 2012 Well, I'm going for Robert Redford too... but with Paul Newman in Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid. A classic Old Married Couple if ever I saw one :) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icebreaker 3938 Report post Posted April 23, 2012 My preference for Bogart was always Bacall (you can see the chemistry on screen in "To Have and Have Not" that lead to them getting married in real life). That's not to say that Casablanca isn't one of my favourite movies, in fact I enjoy watching this movie with people who haven't seen it before. For Ingrid Bergman I thought pairing her with Cary Grant in Alfred Hitchcock's "Notorious" was another favourite screen pairing (and maybe I should add this film to the underrated films thread). 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grant defined smooth. And he & Grace Kelly were great together too. Rock Hudson & Doris Day. So cute. Their movies are such fun. From Here to Eternity beach scene between Deborah Kerr & Burt Lancaster. Some classics never fade. Sandi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Athos 108589 Report post Posted April 24, 2012 Myrna Loy and William Powell of the Thin Man movies. All told they made 14 films together. That's gotta be some sort of record. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peacectryguy 12547 Report post Posted July 2, 2014 Bogey and Bacall are definitely the most famous romantic couple, imo. I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn, another all-time classic couple. "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" is my favorite. Tacy's final film, of course. Another one I liked was the pairing of Marlon Brando and Eva Marie Saint in "On the Waterfront". The chemistry was there, obviously as they both won Oscars.
