If we talk about the most glamorous couple from Hollywood, we should certainly remember the port of Janet Leigh and Tony Curtis. In the 1950-60s they were at the peak of their popularity and conquered fans not only by acting, but also by their incredible appearance. Their romance resembled a real fairy tale. The elegance and versatility of Janet Leigh drove everyone crazy. She flawlessly played roles in all her films, but most of all the audience remembered thanks to ‘Psycho’ and ‘Some Like It Hot’.
They met in the 1950s. It was a real love at first sight. At that time, Tony Curtis was already a rising star. This was due to his boyish appearance and unique charisma. Naturally, he could not resist the beauty and grace of Janet. A year later, they decided to get married. Everyone followed their married life, as the stars literally advertised their marriage. They often filmed together and took part in common public appearances. For example, in the film Houdini, the couple also starred together. Their chemistry came to life on the screens, which was very much appreciated by the directors.
Despite the idealised images, they had quite a complicated relationship. Due to their busy schedules, fame and constant attention to their marriage, the idyll gave a crack. They continued to build a creative career and did not lose their demand, but there was no way to keep the fairy-tale romance. And fans were attracted by it.
In the 60’s from their relationship was literally nothing left, so in 1962 they announced their divorce. Career they were not going to give up and still actively replenished their portfolio of successful roles. Curtis even achieved fame on television, not limited to cinema.
Their love story and today is considered one of the most exciting in Hollywood, because not every star couple lived in marriage for a dozen years. They amazed with passion, talent and the ability to overcome even incredible difficulties. It is safe to say that their partnership, both personal and professional, has left an incredible mark on world cinema.
