She had also survived cancer twice. She was healthy, brilliant, beautiful, and successful beyond her wildest dreams. She was about to direct her first feature film. Her life was full. Or so she thought.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI wasn\u2019t expecting anything that day. Just to see a bunch of actors pretending to be John Lennon.\u201d He was an actor, working since he was six. He\u2019d been onstage, in films, on television, successful enough to get by, but the breakthrough hadn\u2019t come. He\u2019d been preparing for this audition for six weeks. If he got the role, it would change his life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI remember it very, very clearly. I know exactly what she was wearing. This white shirt that she still has, that I love. It definitely changed my life, though not in the way I expected.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe were very professional through the entire film.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNo funny business at all.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBut everyone on set knew. And as soon as we finished, he told me he was going to marry me. We had never been on a date, or even kissed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnd a year to the minute after we met, exactly one year to the minute, I got down on one knee and asked her to marry me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn the 10 years we\u2019ve been together, we\u2019ve only been apart for maybe two or three days.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnd those were the worst days of those 10 years.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.harpersbazaar.com\/celebrity\/a29663490\/sam-aaron-taylor-johnson-interview-2019\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"click to continue reading at Harper's BAZAAR (opens in a new tab)\">click to continue reading at Harper&#8217;s BAZAAR<\/a> ]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>from Harper&#8217;s BAZAAR Sam and Aaron Taylor-Johnson Are One of the Most Private Couples in Hollywood\u2014and They Intend to Keep It That Way BY JAMES FREY; PHOTOGRAPHS BY MICHAEL AVEDON Between lingering kisses and adoring sidelong glances, artist turned filmmaker Sam Taylor-Johnson and her dashing actor husband, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, open up to friend James Frey [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":26,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2,3,7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10347","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-conversation-information","category-culture-art","category-projects"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bigjimindustries.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10347","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bigjimindustries.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bigjimindustries.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bigjimindustries.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/26"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bigjimindustries.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10347"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bigjimindustries.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10347\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bigjimindustries.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10347"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bigjimindustries.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10347"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bigjimindustries.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10347"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
