I love how this movie takes the time to develop the characters, so that you actually care about them, unlike many new shorter classless movies these days
smart girl: she new he went there for money and purposely wore the gold coins to bait him,furthermore acted as if she had no concept of time to show that she hadn't been thinking of him while he has thought plenty of her.
@cobalt100 She's been married 8 times and had pretty much every disease under the sun. She's been an alcoholic, pill popper, had a brain tumour, had a hysterectomy, and nearly died of pneumonia which resulted in a tracheotomy. She's had more surgeries than anyone can could (Burton, in his journal mentions some 20-odd surgeries in 1970) and that was when she was only 38 years old.
@cobalt100 Goddess forged in Hell? More like, one of the most talented women in the world. As far as being glad that you weren't one of those "unfortunate" individuals, she would have never had the likes of you. So, no worries then.
@PoliticallyCorrect17 The first time that my wife and I saw a movie with Elizabeth Taylor in it, was the last time my wife and I went to a movie with Elizabeth Taylor in it.
@cobalt100 So why did you look again a movie with Liz Taylor ? Only to affront her and to ambush those who like this movie and making fans of such movies feeling worse ?
@cobalt100 I don't know if your highly religious or not because I've just glanced at this now and it has annoyed me so very much already. How dare you. How very well dare you sir. Who do you think you are to pass such a judgement on another human being, whom you do not personally know, with that poisonus tongue. 'Goddess forged in hell' pah! Hardly. Why has such hatred boiled within you? God would be ashamed to inspire such hate on his behalf! If it exists I'm sure shes in heaven now!
Some items on Roman menues sound and don't look much appetizing to us today such as Peacock's brains, Flamingo tounges, roasted Doormice, songbirds and Larks.
I wonder what happened to the boat after filming. It would be amazing if they could rent it out for charity to any one that wanted to be "Cleopatra" for a day. I know I would pay top dollar.
Alex North's music is excellent and one of the outstanding features of this film. This music for Cleopatra's barge and the end credits are exceptional.
Actually what you saw there was nothing to how it really was. According to historical accounts, the plates, goblets and cutlery, in addition to being made of pure gold, were studded with precious stones. The air was heavily perfumed from the rose petals on the floor which reached to your knee.
"fabulous feast!!" "One is so limited when one travels by ship." - that throw away line by Cleo is priceless, as if her fabulous wealth is merely a trifle!
One the best movies ever made. To me it's a classic because of the beauty of the costumes and scenery but natural chemistry that formed between burton and taylor.
the only thing I could think of more extravagent than this is a movie made completely of gold. This movie is probably more expensive than several countries
Thank you very much for the cleopatra movie...... I had to answer questions for a final examination take home for my latin class and this helped me alot thank you thank you thank you

That may have been a myth. The calcium carbonate in pearls does dissolve in vinegar, but slowly unless the pearl is first crushed.
