Have you been pining for someone for a long time? Then you might be Frank Sinatra, and you might have found your Ava Gardner! We dig into the drama-filled marriage between the famous crooner and famous starlet, try to keep the web of their Hollywood relationships straight, and break our own hearts just a little bit as we learn about their unrequited love during the rest of their lives. And, of course, we try to figure out what their marriage has to do with Luke and Lorelai’s new relationship.

Other pop culture we ref: National Velvet, Artie Shaw, The Beatles, Errol Flynn, Elizabeth Taylor, Howard Hughes, From Here to Eternity, John F. Kennedy, Cary Grant, Harry Styles, The Barefoot Contessa, Gene Kelly, Rosemary’s Baby
