When an actress marries her director, does it improve the quality of her work? Or his? Or the quality of their marriage? That’s the question posed by this book, which features over thirty such couples.Some of them worked together before they married, some during and some after. Some of them even worked together after their relationship collapsed, like Rita Hayworth and Orson Welles.Others, like Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward, acted together before their relationship morphed into an actress/director one.She Married the Boss! examines the lives of Hollywood celebrities before and behind the camera and inside the outside the boudoir. It tells us how these people mated, related and (if they did) separated. It studies the movies they made together and the tensions they underwent during such shoots when Cupid stopped firing his arrows.Fasten your seatbelts for a full frontal assault on the lives and careers of such icons as Louise Brooks, Judy Garland, Ingrid Bergman, Brigitte Bardot, Jean Simmons, Jane Fonda, Anne Bancroft, Julie Andrews, Helen Mirren, Jeanne Moreau, Hayley Mills, Madonna and other legends of the screen who signed up for both a personal and professional life with men who called the shots - literally.
