'Adam's Rib'

I wish a scientist would research human chemistry. Not genes, blood, smells and whatnot. But the innate ability of certain human beings to connect.

I think it certainly goes beyond liking the same music or being the same age. It's not always what you have in common.

Why, for example, can Katharine Hepburn (so hot) and Spencer Tracy be in a movie together and genuinely act like they're really married.

Now, I realize that they're actors and they're acting like they're married, but it takes more than that to capture the tenacity and sincere adoration those two had for each other in this movie.

It wasn't just acting. They were more in love and more married than Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are actually in love and married today.

Why is this? Why are there people in this world that could walk into a room of strangers and walk out with a roomful of new friends? What are they given that the rest of us lack?
