FUN FACT:  As told in his memoir, Kim Basinger's then husband Ron Snyder found two love letters penned by Richard Gere stashed in a drawer in Basinger's home gym at the end of April 1986, decided to follow his wife on one of her late night shoots with Gere, tracked the cheating superstars to a restaurant and watched them passionately making out in the parking lot in Gere's limo. Snyder later confronted her and the marriage survived the affair, until Basinger started another romance on the set of Batman (1989).
