Happy Birthday Clark Gable!

Happy Birthday Clark Gable!

Most people think first of Gone with the Wind, but my favorite Gable film is the classic romantic comedy It Happened One Night.  Clark Gable is a journalist on the trail of an heiress (Claudette Colbert) running away from marriage.

In this Walls of Jericho scene, they're sharing a small cabin in a rain storm.  Clark Gable taking off his shirt with, *gasp*, no undershirt was completely scandalous in 1934.  Still pretty darn hot in 2010!

At the end of the film, they honeymoon back at this same cabin, and you hear the sound of a trumpet!
