[HPFGU-OTChatter] Favorite Fictional/Historical Couples

[Sister Mary Lunatic]

I'll second these couples wholeheartedly, being better acquainted with them
as opposed to some of the others on Ebony's list:

 1) Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy (Pride and Prejudice)
 7) Every movie couple ever played by Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan
 9) Czar Nicholas and his wife Alexandra
10) Desiree Clary and Bernadotte

And add my own:

1] The Ghost and Mrs. Muir
2] Rhett Butler and Scarlett O'Hara
3] Jane Eyre and Edward Rochester
4] Ramses Emerson and Nefret Forth (Elizabeth Peters' mystery series, I
guess I'll stick in Ramses' parents Amelia Peabody and Radcliffe Emerson as
well!)
5] Queen Elizabeth I and Robert Dudley (whatever they had between them!)
6] Helene Hanff and Frank Doel (real people who never actually met, but
whose marvelous relationship is detailed in Hanff's "84 Charing Cross Road")
7] Nick and Nora Charles
8] Catherine Chandler and Vincent (Beauty and the Beast)
9] Jimmy Stewart and Harvey the invisible 6-foot white rabbit (movie
"Harvey")

And just for the heck of it:
10] Will & Ariel Durant, just because of the weirdness of their marriage
(When they married, he was a 27-year-old professor, she was 13 years old and
roller-skated to the wedding; they died within a few hours of each other in
old age.)
