Clark Gable and Hedy Lamarr--- romantic chemistry?
I didn't see much of it on-screen. Hedy was hot to trot, but Clark Gable was a bit of a cold fish.

Your analysis was correct. I read a lot in some of the comments made by fans or critics when they are viewing a movie and almost immediately condemn it cause the leading actors had no chemistry. I still say, its up to the writers to give the actors the words and the scenes to make that chemistry to happen.

I get the impression a lot of the comments come from people who take things completely out of context. When they don't understand the movie, they bash it. I do the same thing some times.

In this movie the chemistry would not have worked. Early on they're not supposed to even like each other so both the script and the casting was fine.
