Clark Gable (James Brolin) and starlet Carole Lombard (Jill Clayburgh) developed an enduring love -- rare by Hollywood standards -- that lasted beyond Lombard's tragic death in a plane crash in the early 1940s. This is the story of their unique love affair -- he, the screen's most handsome leading man, and she, a glamorous actress who found fame in the screwball comedies of the 1930s. Co-stars Red Buttons and Allen Garfield.
