Baskette summed up his findings by offering his own self-righteous dictum, particularly as he had never practised what he preached:
Never has domesticity outside the marital state reached such a full flower as in Hollywood. Nowhere are there so many famous unmarried husbands and wives . . . The altar record among Hollywood’s popular twosomes is surprisingly slim. Usually something formidable stands in the way of a marriage certificate when Hollywood stars pair up minus a preacher. In Clark and Carole’s case, of course, there is a very sound barrier. Clark is still officially a married man. Every now and then negotiations for a divorce are started but, until something happens in court, Ria Gable is still the only wife the law of this land allows Clark Gable. Yet nobody, not even Hollywood’s miracle men, has ever improved on the good old-fashioned, satisfying institution of holy matrimony. And, until something better comes along, the best was to hunt happiness when you’re in Hollywood or anywhere else is with a preacher, a marriage license and a bagful of rice.
