Gable e Lombard - Un grande amore (1976)
Il film narra il tempestoso amore fra Carole Lombard e Clark Gable, reduci ognuno da due matrimoni falliti, ostacolati nei loro rapporti dal feroce puritanesimo della società americana che non tollera convivenze "illegali", soprattutto negli idoli della politica e dello spettacolo, che appartengono anima e corpo e sentimenti al pubblico. Fra liti, minacce di troncamento della carriera e complicazioni legali, Clark e Carole si incontrano clandestinamente ricorrendo a trucchi e travestimenti, e dovendo fare i conti con i rispettivi caratteri vulcanici e le gelosie dovute alle scene d'amore che devono recitare con altri partners. Coinvolto in un processo per paternità, Clark, reo confesso, viene salvato da una falsa deposizione di Carole, spergiura in tribunale. Poi i due osano presentarsi "con la loro verità" al pubblico, dal quale riscuotono un trionfale applauso.
