Since the dawn of cinema husbands and wives have been making movies together. Quite often it’s a case of two stars meeting on set and the love scenes they are acting in become all too real. Look no farther than perhaps the most famous couple of all. Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton on the set of the big budget extravaganza Cleopatra.

It took Bacall to domesticate Bogie leading to perhaps the greatest of Hollywood’s love stories.
