This photo, taken by photographer Gary Lewis in the 1970’s, is quite significant because it features three movie stars in a love triangle! Here’s the backstory: Natalie Wood married Robert Wagner in 1957 when she was 19 and he was 27. Everything was fine until she filmed Splendor in the Grass in 1961 with Warren Beatty. Their passionate love scenes on camera led to an affair and wrecked her marriage to Wagner and they divorced in 1962. In 1972, all was forgiven and Natalie and Robert married again. A short time later, Warren Beatty just happened to be waiting by the door at the busy Beverly Wilshire hotel for a friend, when suddenly Natalie and Wagner walked in! AWKWARD- they ignored each other – but Gary Lewis got the shot. If you love Old Hollywood photos and gossip, use this link mptvimages.com and type in Gary Lewis’s name. His Pics are amazing and he’s put together a celebrity packed book ready to be published.

Walken did it?

The pictures are WONDERFUL; thanks–bookmarked! 😀
RJ is bisexual–leaning more toward gay. Wood didn’t know when she married him the first time, but she went in w/ eyes wide open the second time. I have a friend whose mom went to high school w/ him… and she has told my friend that even though the girls were crazy about him, he wanted nothing to do w/ them. Which also leads me to believe that he was a beard w/ his “relationship” with Barbara Stanwyck… and now that we know about Spencer Tracy and how he was close friends with RJ… well.
