This is a lovely post indeed! The only picture I'd kind of not put in the passion bracet is the one titled "Helen Hayes kissing a man at a party", because the man is actually her son, James MacArthur...
Here's another picture from the same night - at least she has the same dress: http://jnpickens.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/charles-helen-james.jpg
Haha, thanks for catching that, Karin! I might transfer that image to a different post with a more general view of love... :)
