Hart To Hart

Archive for the ‘Blog’ Category

I was poking around the net looking for information on Stefanie, RJ or Hart to Hart and I came across this great article from October 1st, 1984. It is an article about Stefanie filming Mistral’s Daughter. I found it very interesting to read. You may have read this before or not. The link is below for those that haven’t.

A couple of quotes from the article that amused me were

Quote 1: “Who lit the fire under Stefanie? Certainly the surprise cancellation of Hart to Hart brought her up sharply. She was a month into shooting Mistral’s when Wagner and her producers called with the bad news. “She cried for a day,” says Wagner, who later flew to Paris to offer a shoulder to lean on. Wagner says that in their morning-to-midnight workdays on Hart he’d spent “more time with her than any other woman in my life.” Says Stefanie: “It’s like a divorce. I’m not made of steel. My pain is as big as anybody’s.”"

Quote 2: “And so a visitor watching Powers on the set is confronted with a dynamo. Stefanie listens as author Krantz, whose husband, Steve, is the miniseries’ executive producer, complains about a line in the script that had been changed from her novel. “Can’t they use the word virgin on television?” Krantz asks. Cracks Powers, “There are no virgins on television.” Over lunch with director Hickox, Powers asks whether he minds if she smokes. “Yes,” he says. “—- you, baby,” Stefanie replies with a laugh, lighting up. Such four-letter words, in all their various conjugations, are not uncommon for Stefanie. It soon becomes clear that Powers’ earthy core is a surprise only to those who know her strictly from five years of Hart to Hart. “You can’t put anything over on her,” says her stand-in, Guylène Péan. Those who try are chewed out or ignored. “That’s firmness, not toughness,” says Powers in self-defense. “I hope it’s possible to be firm without being a monster. Unfortunately, sometimes people don’t hear you until you scream.” ”

I know that the Actor who played Max died a few years ago, but is there any reluctance on the part of Stephanie Powers and RJ Wagner to do any more Hart To Hart TV films?
