85 - NATHALIE WOOD AND ROBERT WAGNER

NATHALIE WOOD AND ROBERT WAGNER During the filming of the movie "All the Fine Young Cannibals," 1960. Photo, vintage silver print, unmarked on the back. 26 x 20.5 cm, including white borders. Note: Though married in real life, Natalie Wood and Robert Wagner appear here for the first and only time together in a feature film intended for theatrical release. Wood plays Sara Davis, known as Salome, a young Texan in love with Chad Bixby, an ambitious trumpet player portrayed by Wagner. When she discovers she is pregnant, however, Sara refuses to marry him, convinced that their relationship would make them both unhappy. Their paths diverge before crossing again, each having married a member of a wealthy East Coast family. Inspired by Rosamond Marshall’s novel *The Bixby Girls*, Michael Anderson’s melodrama blends thwarted passions, social ambitions, and the world of jazz. The Wood-Wagner couple, who were first married in 1957, divorced in 1963 before remarrying in 1972.
