Today on the Oprah Winfrey Show, Ryan O’Neal and Ali MacGraw were on to talk about their 1970 film “Love Story”. O’Neal and MacGraw were the two stars of the much talked about film of the 70′s. In the movie, the two play lovers who come from total opposite backgrounds. The families don’t want them together, but some how, some way, love wins over.

Ryan O’Neal recently lost his wife, Farrah Fawcett in 2009, to cancer. Ali MacGraw, hasn’t been married since 1978.

O’Neal recalled several scenes in the movie where he had the opportunity to kiss the beautiful Ali MacGraw. He talked about how he believed she was his first real love, even though the two never dated. During the filming of the movie, MacGraw was married to film producer Robert Evans, so O’Neil couldn’t make any moves outside of the fictional setting.

The two fictional lovers really seemed to be quite flirtatious during today’s Oprah show. When O’Neal was asked if he thought he would ever find love again, he responded, “Well, I’m gonna work on this one (Ali MacGraw) over the weekend.”

Is it true or was he just being sarcastic? It was really hard to tell.

Both actors are still in the film business, but have been taking it more slow as of late. MacGraw recently played herself in a film called “Do You Sleep in the Nude?”. O’Neal hasn’t appeared in a film since 2003, but has had several recent TV roles, including Spence Montgomery, in “90210″, and Max Keenan in “Bones”.

Could we really finally see the two fictional lovers become lovers in real life? Who knows….
