Where I can find subtitles for this movie? Thanks =D

[TheFANOFET]

YES- This was a true Elizabeth Taylor role. I loved her complete act, dress, and courage in taking on such a role.

RICHARD YOUR THE BEST-

[DominoPetachi83]

She was beautiful in this movie! It's too bad she didn't make more theatrical films in her later years. She was still sexy and gorgeous

[hripamy]

even she's old now she's still beautiful

[lray1948]

It looks like Liz is fighting the battle of the bulge in this movie. She looks a little bloated, her arms appear chubby, and the clothes are cut to where they appear to be covering up whatever pudginess her figure has. Plus the cameraman choses his angles carefully and rarely shoots her full figure.

[cinnaplid]

That old devil Time. Now Harmon is playing the 'old man' role on his TV show NCIS.

[purplefrf]

Wow, she must have been about 56 here. Looks great!

[judithshappy]

I saw this picture a couple of times...It is actually one of my favorite ET movies....so I guess I do feel it! love the music:-D

[love70000]

lovely clip. I did not see this movie. but I will, thank you Richard.

[loulou2lou]

Without some dialog it is a good idea but it just doesn't cut it for me,Sorry

[richardbassett1956]

I know, I'm not crazy about it either. Next one will be dialog. Sorry.

[htuomnom]

She will be Elizabeth Taylor till the end,and then there will never be another.

[Massman250]

We all due respect to Ms. Taylor, her characterization of Alexandra Del Lago is slight in comparsion to Geraldine Page's. But, I guess , to be fair, any actress attempting this role has lengendary shoes to fill.

[missbabyice]

@Massman250 - She still had the looks and the glamour but it jusn't didn't work here.

[phlashba]

SCREW WMG!!!!!

[amorcholo]

elizabeth taylor,the most beautiful woman i ever saw in my life...

[paul51]

One of the last hurrahs for Liz . . . I still have this on VHS!!! I thought her acting / character were right on target. Brilliant, actually. Thanks.

[petrainternational]

here she wears a marvellous dress maybe she brought from morrocco.

[LaSerpentaCanta]

these old broads is a horrible movie.

I wish Elizabeth had a small part in a good film, like a sort of goodbye.

[redtamale89]

We don't want to say goodbye any time soon though....at least I sure don't because, when she goes so does my idol and inspiration (she's right under god) for me. I love you Elizabeth !!!!!!!! The movie "these old broads" was fantastic in my eyes too!!!!!! It shows that Liz still has it!!!!

[KarinS80]

Another great one! lol at the part where she's flipping through life magazine. She used to be on a lot of those covers back in the 50s and 60s... :D

The theme of the video seem to work really well with her character that is trying to recapture her youth...

Still she looks great for being in her 50s...too bad she didn't do much acting after this. How big was her part in the 2001 movie she did with Debbie Reynolds and Joan Collins by the way?

I suppose that truly is her last movie...

[richardbassett1956]

She was shown only in bed reading scripts for only a few minutes. She looked great. She made it in October 2000 and it was aired (on TV) in February 2001, but she was barely in it. Rich

[reggiz3]

I NEVER SEEN THIS MOVIE!!

[redpepper091]

man your missing out :(

[KarinS80]

Hi Rich,

I've seen both These Old Broads and this movie by now (Sweet Birds of Youth). I watched the last one tonight. I actually liked "These Old Broads" more as it was so funny. This movie was sorta...I don't know your video is right on target and unfortunately makes the movie look more interesting than it was IMHO. lol I guess it's the pacing of movies that are adapted from theatre plays that can be rather slow...

Elizabeth still did a good job with her part though. :)

[redtamale89]

and at the end when she say's something to the effect of get off your lazy ass's and give it up for these old broads.

[Rbka007]

hey I love Mark Harmon, And it is a pride that has worked with liz taylor, she is the great actrez, sorry I have not understood your mensage, and not speak enghish.
