This facts-packed video explores the real-life marriage between cinema darlings Barbara Stanwyck and Robert Taylor at the height of their careers. Dubbed "The Queen of Hollywood," Stanwyck overcame abandonment and poverty as a child through sheer tenacity to become filmdom's highest-paid actress. The orphanwould wed matinee idol Taylor in 1939 when both were bonafide A-list stars.
