James Brolin and Jill Clayburgh pull it off as one of old Hollywood's most dashing couples.
The ambiance of 1930s-1940s Hollywood almost steals the show, but Brolin, Clayburgh, a fine script and a beautiful score are the real wonders of this film. The title characters are believable and interesting to watch. Red Buttons also does a good job in a small role.
We see how Gable and Lombard met and how they had to face all of the impediments that were trying to ruin their love affair.
The film does not have a happy ending because it's based on fact. As a matter of fact, you will need some tissues when you watch the final scene. It's that moving.
