Long Live Liz!
(G) USA/UK/Switzerland – 4 hr 11 min
1963 · d. Joseph L. Mankiewicz
Starring Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, Rex Harrison
As Rome descends into civil war, Queen Cleopatra (Elizabeth Taylor) draws Julius Caesar (Rex Harrison) and Mark Antony (Richard Burton, soon to be Mr. Elizabeth Taylor) into strategic alliances—and passionate affairs—in an attempt to save Egypt. Legendary for its epic scope, staggering budget, and scandalous behind-the-scenes drama, Cleopatra is the absolute pinnacle of Hollywood spectacle.
