September 17 好莱坞风情男子
Gable won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his 1934 performance in the film It Happened One Night
he had also earned an Academy Award nomination for his role as Fletcher Christian in 1935's Mutiny on the Bounty.
Gable's marriage in 1939 to his third wife, actress Carole Lombard, was reportedly the happiest episode in his personal life, but it ended with her death in a plane crash in 1942. He was deeply grieved and joined the U.S. Army Air Force. His first movie after returning from service in WWII was the 1945 production of Adventure. It was not really successful, and MGM did not renew his contract in view of his high salary. During the next ten years, he made films which did not match the quality of his earlier roles. His second wife had been Texas socialite Rhea Langham Davis, and his fourth was English actress Sylvia Ashley, a British divorcée who also was the widow of Douglas Fairbanks. His fifth wife, married after an on-again, off-again affair spanning 13 years, was Kathleen Williams Capps de Alzaga Spreckels, a thrice-married former fashion model and stock actress from the town of North East, Pennsylvania. She was the mother of Gable's posthumous son and only legitimate child, John Clark Gable, born in 1961; she also had two children from her third marriage, Joan and Adolph Spreckels 3rd. Gable also had an illegitimate daughter, Judy Lewis, from an affair with actress Loretta Young. Gable's last film was The Misfits, which also featured Marilyn Monroe in her last screen performance. Gable died in 1960 of a massive heart attack in Los Angeles, at the age of 59. He was interred in Forest Lawn Memorial Park Cemetery in Glendale, California, beside his beloved wife Carole Lombard.
He is best-known for his performance as Rhett Butler in the 1939 classic Gone With the Wind,
