Kilmer subsequently dated Cindy Crawford and recently had to dodge rumors of a tryst with his Saint co-star, Elisabeth Shue. Noyce says that was just Val the perfectionist, obsessed with highlighting the film's romantic glow. "He worked so minutely on this relationship that some crew members said they were having an affair," says Noyce.
