Sabrina (1954) dir. Billy Wilder

Your mind has not been on the cooking. Your mind has been elsewhere. You’re in love. And I will venture to go a step further — you’re unhappily in love. Does it show? Very clearly.

Shirley Jones learned she was pregnant with her son Patrick three months into filming The Music Man. She met with director Morton DaCosta over lunch to inform him of the situation. Her concern was that she would begin “showing” during its filming. He assured her that they could work through it with costumes and also by filming her from the waist up, if necessary. He did have one request, that she tell no one about it. Robert Preston did figure it out before filming had concluded, when Shirley’s character, Marion, and his character, Professor Hill, kissed for the first time in the romantic footbridge scene. As he leaned in for the kiss, the baby kicked. He jumped back, asking her, “What was that?” to which she replied, “That is Patrick Cassidy! Say, ‘Hello!’ ” Years later, her son Patrick had the opportunity to meet Preston. He walked up and introduced himself saying, “Hello. I’m Patrick Cassidy.” Preston took three steps backwards and replied, “I know, I know. We’ve already met.”

“What was it about the Newmans’ marriage that made it last so long? How do they make it work?
‘I have no idea,’ Woodward replied, seeming utterly stumped. ‘Absolutely not one single idea on the subject. Probably sheer luck, wouldn’t you say?’ She squeezed her husband’s knee. ‘Darling, say something. You have a different notion - I would say that.’
'I’m never comfortable talking about these things, because they’re nobody’s business,’ he said.
'Sheer luck. Luck! That’s what it is,’ Woodward repeated, ignoring her husband’s unresponsiveness.”
