The
King
of
Hollywood's
crown
sits
uneasily
on
his
head.
He
and
his
kingdom
are
fighting
battles
on
multiple
fronts.
Things
are
changing.
The
movie
industry
is
still
fighting
against
television,
though
the
cause
is
lost.
Tastes
are
changing.
Always
slow
to
adapt,
This
meant
studio
bosses
were
as
unsure
as
their
stars
about
how
to
navigate
it.
It
was
the
same
for
Gable.
Personally,
he
was
tired
of
being
a
bachelor.
He
married
and
divorced
and
remarried.
Professionally,
he
was
unhappy
and
threw
off
the
protection
of
the
studio
to
work
as
an
independent. With
control
of
his
career,
his
personal
life
settled
too.
He
married
and
had
two
step
children
for
a
ready
made
family.
He
was
happy
and
keen
provide
for
them.
He
was
also
focused
as
ever
on
proving
himself
as
an
actor
and
a
box-office
draw.
Clark
Gable
found
his
best
chance
yet
in
the
desert
near
Reno..His
cowboy
teaming
up
with
Marilyn
Monroe
to
chase
wild
horses.
After
nearly
thirty
years,
Clark
Gable
held
his
own
against
young
up
and
coming
stars.
By
his
reckoning
he
saw
out
the
fifties
and
headed
into
the
sixties
still
