Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Harlow collapsed on set in May 1937; she died of kidney failure five days later. The studio used body doubles and shot her from behind to complete remaining scenes.
This pairing — Gable and Harlow's sixth — was their most commercially successful, yet audiences then and now watch through the lens of her premature death.
