Cloris Leachman's Hollwood 'Epic'

CLORIS Leachman is 82, but the spry, Oscar-winning actress -- who recently hoofed it on "Dancing with the Stars" -- hasn't forgotten the hot hookups and wild flirtations of her younger days.
In her new memoir, "Cloris," out next week, she recalls bumping into Gene Hackman while both were shooting movies in San Francisco in the 1970s and dining with him at their hotel.
"As we moved into the main course, it was as if a cosmic wind enveloped us. Some giant space magnet was pulling us together," Leachman writes. "We didn't finish the meal. We went upstairs, flew into bed and made love. It was epic. And the next morning, Gene went back to his film and I went back to mine. I haven't seen Gene since that night, but I remember well the feisty lad he was."
