Sexual tension!

Is it just me, or can you really cut the sexual tension with a knife between Johnny and Gilda, as played by Glenn Ford and Rita Hayworth? They played their roles to the hilt and I have to admit, I could feel the 'heat' just watching their interplay. While Rita Hayworth was - without argument - a breathtakingly gorgeous woman (esp. in this film), I have never found Glenn Ford to be extremely attractive until watching this. Both are them are incredibly sexy. A wonderful film noir and a terrific pairing. I don't think I have seen such sexual pull between two movie characters in a long time. Truly somewhat groundbreaking for the time it was filmed. Anyone else agreed? Thoughts?
