Sophia Loren and Cary Grant
They made two films together, and during the first (The Pride and the Passion) Grant proposed to her. She turned him down.
The Pride and the Passion (1957) was a historical drama, but then they made the light romantic comedy Houseboat (1958) about a widower (Grant) who is somewhat clueless about how to raise the three children he has. He hires Loren as a nanny, and because of the housing crisis in Washington DC (where the film takes place) they end up all living together on a somewhat worse-for-wear houseboat.
Houseboat is usually considered a much better comedy than her other earlier American efforts of Boy on a Dolphin (an archeological adventure and romance) and It Started in Naples, with Clark Gable (a comedy and romance about a Philadelphia lawyer trying to get his American-Italian nephew out of Italy).
It was during the making of Houseboat that Loren married Carlo Ponti (by proxy in Mexico), and Grant gave up his pursuit.
The Pride and the Passion also featured Frank Sinatra.

The film's storyline concerns a British Royal Navy artillery officer who has orders to retrieve a huge siege cannon from Spain and transport it by ship to British forces. First, however, the leader of the Spanish guerrillas wants to transport the weapon 1,000 km (620 mi) across Spain to help in the recapture of the city of Ávila from the occupying French before he releases it to the British. Most of the film deals with the hardships of transporting the large cannon to Ávila across rivers and over mountains, while also evading the occupying French forces that have been ordered to find it. A sub-plot concerns the struggle for the love of the Spanish woman Juana (Loren) by the two male protagonists.
The film story and screenplay by Edna Anhalt and Edward Anhalt are loosely based on the 1933 novel The Gun by C. S. Forester. Earl Felton contributed an uncredited screenplay re-write, George Antheil composed the music score, and Saul Bass designe
