Movita (1935) and Tarita (1962) both married Brando


I was checking out the Clark Gable/Charles Laughton version of Mutiny on the Bounty and discovered that the actress who played Gables Tahitian lover (Movita) later married Marlon Brando. In 1962, when Brando made his Mutiny on the Bounty he ended up marrying Tarita who plays the same part his ex-wife played in the Gable (1935) version! Coincidence or some really weird psychology at work here?!

Movita did not play Maimiti in the 1935 version.
