Gable and Lombard
"It is not her man" - was the name of the film, on the set of which first met two stars and the Hollywood sex symbol 30s Clark Gable and Carole Lombard. Maybe that's the name of the movie then it worked not in favor of Gable, Carole at that time could not see in it that after some time, fell in love with her in Gable strongly, strongly and passionately. But the fact remains that they met, weighed, each received his fee and went to different directions. A whimsical Carol even came up to send Geyblu ham wrapped in his portrait, showing that the "King of Hollywood" has not achieved its location. Life continued, but for them is a parallel course: yes, they occasionally overlap in Hollywood, but felt for each other even more hostility than some sympathy.
And love was raided, as always, suddenly: once and for all.
There are even the exact date of such romantic events - January 25, 1936. It was from that day on, they never stopped to think about each other. On the momentous day in one of the trendy clubs of White Ball was held in which Carole Lombard was the hostess. Sam Clark arrived there alone, and saw Carol smiled his trademark, slightly ironic smile, and even winked. In response, She made him the same face. With filming of their joint film was exactly four years. Later Gable suddenly taken aback by the question: is there a luxury lingerie fitting toilet Carol? And in order to dispel their doubts on this sensitive issue, Clark invited the girl to dance. And in the end convinced of the rightness of his suspicions, what is there not fail to inform of the Carol.
And after the second dance Lombard Gable offered a ride in his car. The luxury convertible rolled a couple in Los Angeles. Only 20 minutes later, Carol drew attention to the fact that they only ride that circles around the hotel "Beverly Wilshire».
What we're cool? Because I live here. Maybe go up to my room? Something to drink ... You're it, imagines himself Clark Gable? - Only maliciously Lombardi said, and laughed.
A Valentine's Day Clark suddenly he got her a surprise gift. Learning about the passion for cars Gable, Carole bought at a dump dollars for 15 virtually collapsed, "Ford T" by dragging it to the art gallery, where rattletrap fully painted pink hearts, and sent her Geyblu. In response, he suggested Carol go somewhere to dance. And she's got - dressed in a luxurious dress, anticipating a wonderful trip to the gig she remembered. A Gable went and picked her up on the "Ford" with hearts. So twitching, rattling and puffing, they crawled on the streets of Hollywood and laughed all the way, extremely pleased with each other.
Roman Gable and Carole Lombard at first no one took seriously: I think that just having an affair, and no more. When in Hollywood realized that this is true love, the producers are terribly worried that such a turn would hurt their image. Afraid of angry, romantic heroes for millions of fans have met, you might say, in secret. Only once or twice a week. But soon, Carol realized that she wanted to marry Clark. But Ria, this time at the Gable's wife, has put forward conditions for predatory divorce, claiming that male bastard had it not pay off.
Gable and he was already tired to penetrate into the house Lombard under cover of night, but the award-winning "King of Hollywood" terribly afraid of poverty, from which he managed to escape, while the divorce is equal to the present bankruptcy. But then she Carole one day suddenly said to Clark, that as a gift he bought a ranch for 50 000 dollars.
- But this is crazy money, honey!
- But there is a stable ... And your favorite horse ...
It is this act of Lombard Clark set up to take the plunge. In addition, he was to receive a huge fee for the famous "Gone with the Wind." December 14, 1938, he formally declared to the press that the divorce.
Painted the love in the strictest secrecy, four hundred miles from Los Angeles, in a small town in one of the days when he had a break during the filming of "Gone with the Wind».
Clark and Carol lived modest by Hollywood standards. Their ranch was no pool, no tennis courts, no cinema. They loved to go hunting and spend the night in tents in the woods, and at his ranch - spud beds and care for horses. Even tried raising chickens for sale.
Many were surprised that whimsical and energetic Carol preferred quiet evenings at home by the fire, which they spent reading books or playing poker, a noisy party in Hollywood.
Together they lived 5 years, and two of them - in a legal marriage, which by Hollywood standards it was a kind of record, because they never got bored with each other. A wise Carol could not even pay attention to the numerous ecstatic fans Gable, which at times has increased after the appearance on the screens of "Gone with the Wind».
The only thing they still dreamed of - it was a child. But ... in the meantime the US entered the Second World War. And at that moment Gable did what could not forgive myself for the rest of his life. Then the government asked the State of Indiana to come some Hollywood star, so she supported the campaign for the sale of government bonds, and Carol Clark offered to participate and thus help the country.
Carol arrived and successfully coped with its mission. But here too, she hurried back: she already had a ticket on the train. But at the last moment she suddenly changed his mind: she wanted to hurry to see her husband. And on the way to Los Angeles, even a plane made a stopover in Las Vegas, and airport authorities asked Lombard to give way to an officer, who has lagged behind its part, but Carole became restive ...
Her plane during a thunderstorm crashed into a mountain and broke in half. The crew and passengers were killed instantly. Upon learning of the tragedy, beside herself with grief Clark rushed to the crash site in search of his wife, but found only earrings with diamonds and rubies, which he presented to Carol for Christmas ...
It was too strong blow. Gable could not accept the fact that his wife is no more. He stopped working and began to drink heavily and lived a reclusive ... and after a while suddenly enrolled in flight school, and then went to the front. On account of Hollywood pet countless sorties, including over Berlin. Clark Gable became a national hero in America. His portrait printed newspaper and reprinted all over the country, but he was indifferent to the glory, as its purpose was to share the fate of his wife.
In January 1944, Clark Gable for the first time in a very long time to visit a public celebration. He came to the ceremony of launching the ship called "Carole Lombard." And when on board broke the traditional bottle of champagne and lowered the boat into the water, they saw that the "King of Hollywood" crying.
After Clark Gable was married two more times: on the one wife he only lived for a year, with the second, which is much tried to be similar to the Lombard - 5 years. Clark Gable has not lived only 4 months before the birth of his only son. He died of a heart attack and was buried next to Carol that he had loved all his life.
