Tom and Katie be warned: the pursuit of that on screen sexual spark is a fool's errand
I don't get what this little snippet of story was trying say. I want to see KH nakies. And I am sure there are people who want to see TC too in the buff. I think the writers love of the they ain't really a couple bit has gone too far.
Many of history's most successful cinematic teams had no actual romantic involvement, a fact that calls to mind Laurence Olivier's famous suggestion to Dustin Hoffman, when preparing for Marathon Man, that he might try acting. One of the most legendary examples of screen chemistry of all time did not want to work together at all. Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers were reluctantly teamed for 10 films by their studio; their chemistry was inadvertent, and they both rather resented it. Myrna Loy and William Powell, who made 14 films in as many years, were great friends but never lovers; their "chemistry" is not primarily sexual, but is a kind of gestalt collaborative energy that makes them a joy to watch, and helped them bring out the best in each other. In a similar vein, Doris Day and Rock Hudson's fondness for each other meant that they could produce an erotic frisson that they obviously did not actually feel.
They should be encouraged to take it as close to actual copulation as possible dammit.
