A new month brings a new tourney. This time 32 of your favorite onscreen couples will be competing for the crown. The only criteria for a couple to have made the list was to have starred in more than one film together. So will note that my girl Carole Lombard did not make the list. Most of her films she starred in with other actors was a one time deal with the exception of Fredric March. Anyway, me and Desiree each will take 16 couples and pair them off into 8 matches broken down into four brackets. Brackets which we have named after some of our friends with their favorite stars competing in. I am listing all four brackets here but keep in mind that my blog will only be hosting two of them. The Elaine Marriott and Erenia Russo brackets respectively. The fun begins Sunday morning with first round matches running through Thursday evening. Here's the link to Desiree's blog where she will be hosting two of the brackets: http://www.rozrussell.com/
