And they're all oldies but in my opinion they still feauture as the best couples to come out of Hollywood. Perhaps it was due to the artistry and dedication that went into making movies 40+years ago, that actors grew to appreciate their on screen colleagues and gel with them more. I dunno really why but this is my list anyway.

Ginger Rogers & Fred Astaire:



Laurence Olivier & Vivien Leigh:



Spencer Tracey & Katherine Hepburn:



Lauren Bacall & Humphrey Bogart:

Yeah I guess you have a point GL about the Pitt-Aniston split. But I'm still not a huge fan of Jolie. It's probaly partly cos I'm jealous of her as being ahot stud of a woman but I still think she's a bit of a pain.

Ah yes Harrison Ford in his younger days. Yessssirrreeeee. I thought he and KApe Capshaw made a hot couple if one of the Indiana Jones movies.

Tony Curtis? Hmm yes I spose he was hot enough but not my particular cup of tea 😛

I made a video for Valentine's day concerning the hot men and their lady loves I loved in some action flicks. http://www.greta2242.com/hero.wmv (The SPEED bit goes too long but I still smile when I see Indiana Jones and his girl in Raiders of the Lost Arc.)

I love so many on screen couples.
Long Hot Summer with Paul Newman and his wife Joanne Woodward (all there movies are good but I love the part where he kisses her in the shop.)

Gone with the Wind sizzles with those no names (kidding!.)
Briget Jones Renee Zellweger/Colin Firth

When a movie has that 'it' factor with sexual chemisry, I am just happy to watch and dream for the two hours.

Kevin Kline was particularly sexy and moving in the movie Cry Freedom although he was strictly part of a couple in it but I just thought I'd mention it anyway! I wonder if Halle Barry has ever had onscreen chemistry with another male actor. I happen to thik she is amazing pretty and sexy it's a shame that she asn't been in a movie where her sex siren potential is exploited.
