Getting Replaced
Elliott had his bad days though. One such instance was when he was unable to film The Ambush Murderer. The character was a lawyer who had to defend a black political activist wrongfully accused of killing two white policemen. Sam fell ill during the filming and was replaced with James Brolin.
Making It Official
In 1984, Sam and Katharine made their relationship official and finally tied the knot. Later in the year, the couple had their first and only child, Cleo Rose. This seemed like a great first year of marriage.
