The Couple: Bogart was the Hollywood leading man who had graduated from playing hard-boiled gangsters to hard-boiled heroes, whilst Bacall was the fresh-faced ingénue with the husky voice to top all husky voices…together, they represented old-school Hollywood glamour at its finest.
Relationship History: The pair met on the set of To Have And Have Not, when Bacall was 19 years of age and Bogart 45. Whilst they were clearly attracted to each other from the off, Bogart remained unhappily married for a year until eventually he and Bacall were hitched in 1945. The pair remained married until Bogart’s death in 1957, and would go down as one of the most celebrated couples in Hollywood history.
Onscreen Chemistry: The double-act’s on-screen chemistry hit a high point in The Big Sleep, in which Howard Hawks’ innuendo-heavy script encapsulated their sexual tension perfectly.

Yes he was. Joan Crawford made 2 films with that title one with Gable (early 30s) and the other later with Van Heflin & Raymond Massey. Are you mixing them up. BTW that's not Pickford/ Fairbanks in the picture no. 13 Your picture has David Niven and Merle Oberon - who as far as I know were never involved.......

Tom and Nicole? Yes onscreen there wasn't much chemistry, but they are huge hot stars.

Shouldn't Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones be on this list rather than for example Winona and Johnny?

Hm newmoon, don't know what's wrong with your computer, but there are no pictures of David Niven and Merle Oberon in this set up, and no 13 is definitely Pickford+Fairbanks?
