Rex North is Evelyn’s fourth husband. The similarities he shares with Evelyn—namely his pragmatism, which includes changing his name to succeed as a film star just as Evelyn did—endear him to her and lay the grounds for a mutually beneficial (though almost completely loveless) marriage. His opportunistic nature is evident in his decision to marry Evelyn in order to help their film succeed at the box office. Ultimately, though, Rex reveals his romantic side when he informs Evelyn of his romance with Joy Nathan.

Quotes
What Max was talking about was a graphic portrayal of female desire. And my gut instinct was that I loved the idea. I mean, the thought of filming a graphic sex scene with Don was about as arousing to me as a bowl of bran flakes. But I wanted to push the envelope. I wanted to show a woman getting off. I liked the idea of showing a woman having sex because she wanted to be pleased instead of being desperate to please. So in a moment of excitement, I grabbed my coat, put out my hand, and said, “I’m in.”
