Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf? [1967]


starring: Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, George Segal, Sandy Dennis, Agnes Flanagan
directed by: Mike Nichols
June 22, 1998


The movie is a 1966 film adaptation of the play of the same name by Edward Albee. It was the first film directed by Mike Nichols, and starred Elizabeth Taylor as Martha and Richard Burton as George, with George Segal as Nick and Sandy Dennis as Honey.The film version differs slightly from the play. The play features only four characters, while in the film there are two other minor characters

George, a disillusioned academic, and Martha, his caustic wife, have just come home from a faculty party.

VHS : National Velvet [1945]

National Velvet [1945]


starring: Mickey Rooney, Alec Craig, Arthur Shields, Dennis Hoey, Elizabeth Taylor
directed by: Clarence Brown
July 29, 1996


This review will relate to the DVD which I believe is just the same as VHS.

This film is super rare on Video but does not exist on DVD UK encoding if you own a multi region machine you can by the U.S. version which is just the same film but made for the U.S. region.

I am not a fan of old films there are few I will watch but most will make turn off this film is one I will watch.

If you ride yourself or you just like horses this film will delight you. This film does show its age with the rule that females weren't allowed to race at the National at one time.

This film is a great buy and I urge you to buy this film now or run the risk of never getting a copy as even as you read this it is getting even more rare ... Read More:

VHS : Father Of The Bride [1950]

Father Of The Bride [1950]


starring: Spencer Tracy, Joan Bennett, Elizabeth Taylor, Don Taylor, Billie Burke
directed by: Vincente Minnelli
September 04, 2000


Elizabeth Taylor is the most beautiful bride in the history of the movies and Spencer Tracy is the suffering "Father of the Bride" in this 1950 film directed by Vincent Minnelli. Stanley Banks (Tracy) finds his peaceful life is tossed upside down when his daughter Kay (Taylor) announces she is going to marry Buckley Dunstan (Don Taylor). In the aftermath of the wedding, Stanley recounts in great detail the many problems a father has to contend with during the preparations for the wedding. But all the headaches are made worthwhile when he opens the door and see Kay in her wedding dress for the first time in a superbly beautiful shot of the radiant young bridge. This is one of those shots that makes you forget the film is not in color. Joan Bennett is first rate ... Read More:

VHS : Butterfield 8 [1960]

Butterfield 8 [1960]


starring: Elizabeth Taylor, Laurence Harvey, Eddie Fisher, Dina Merrill, Mildred Dunnock
directed by: Daniel Mann
September 04, 2000


BUTTERFIELD 8 is a screen adaptation of John O'Hara's earlier novel made to look modern for a 1960's audience. Elizabeth Taylor plays a promiscuous girl who wants to settle down with a respectable Laurence Harvey. Unfortunately Harvey is married to a wealthy woman (Dina Merrill). Taylor's friend Eddie Fisher watches the inevitable tragedy slowly unfold. The rest of the cast includes Mildred Dunnock, Betty Field and Susan Oliver. The movie drags in spots and many of the characters lack depth.

Elizabeth Taylor received an unexpected Academy Award for her role and the film was also nominated for Best Color Cinematography. The main competition for Oscars in 1960 came from ELMER GANTRY and THE APARTMENT.

VHS : Doctor Faustus [1967]

Doctor Faustus [1967]


starring: Richard Burton, Elizabeth Taylor
directed by: Richard Burton, Nevill Coghill
April 17, 1990


The only movie Richard Burton ever directed, he also starred as the ill-fated doctor. This version was originally performed as a stage play, and Burton filmed it very much as a stage play, albeit with great special effects. He is very effective as Faustus, not least because in some ways, of course, the story came uncomfortably close to his own: for most of his professional life, Burton was accused of selling his (theatrical) soul in return for a life of unimaginable wealth, luxury, hedonism and, of course, the love of the most beautiful woman in the world. Yet while he certainly gained all of that (and lost most of it again in due course), he never turned his back on the theatre, as this movie proves yet again.

His interpretation of Faustus, as a deeply ... Read More:
