[QUOTE="Karin Schill, post: 289545"] I'm a fan of Elizabeth Taylor, both as an actress and as a humanitarian. She was unique and there will never be anyone like her again. I am also a fan of Richard Burton. I do think the two of them made a great couple. Their chemistry on screen was also electrifying. Now as for the movies, I have watched pretty much all Elizabeth Taylor movies except Quo Vadis (1951) and Scent of Mystery (1960). I have most of the movies on DVD and some on Home Video. I have not seen all of her Tv appearances though. My favorite movies with Elizabeth Taylor are "Cleopatra" (1963), The Sandpiper (1965), Taming of the Shrew (1967) and Who's Afraid of Virigina Woolf (1966). Some other favorites include: National Velvet (1944), Raintree County (1957), Cat On A Hot Tin Roof (1958), Secret Ceremony (1968), Zee & Co (1972) and A Little Night Music (1977). The worst movie I've ever seen with her is Under Milkwood (1971). I think you have to be from Wales to get that one as it is based on a play by a famous Welshman. It is much more a Richard Burton movie than Elizabeth Taylor. She appears maybe 5 minutes tops. The movie pictures everyday things in a Welsh village and ordinary life. It is dull. I think a part of what made Elizabeth's acting so interesting is because she could say so much with just the look in her eyes. One movie that I really liked that nobody has mentioned yet is "Blue Bird" (1976). This is a rather peculiar movie where Elizabeth portrays four different characters. I think her performance as the old lady is most impressive as she looks nothing like Elizabeth Taylor and if I didn't know it was her who was hiding behind the mask I'd never have guessed it was her.
