Renowned for her legendary beauty and startling violet eyes, actress Elizabeth Taylor has mesmerized audiences with her dramatic performances on the big screen as well as her private life, which included eight marriages and seven husbands. She was the Queen of Hollywood, with a film career spanning six decades.
Discover the real woman behind the cinematic legend with this intimate look at the turbulent personal life of silverscreen queen Elizabeth Taylor. The film includes interviews with peers Natalie Wood, Roddy McDowall and many others.
Elizabeth Taylor really feels like the definition of movie star to me. What always hits hardest, though, is how early she started working and how much chaos she carried behind the glamour. Watching old interviews, you see someone who was funny, sharp, and a bit exhausted by her own myth. Every time one of her films pops up while I’m scrolling through peacock tv reviews or channel lists, I end up rewatching Cleopatra or Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf and remembering why she owned the screen.
