I saw this movie when it first came out in the summer of 1968, in San Antonio, Texas. Managed to find a bootleg dvd about a year ago. Synchronicity: When I first came (for 6 months) to Kauai in 1971, I met Horward Taylor, Liz Taylor's brother, who played the guy on the boat who threw Burton's stuff in the water. I used to describe and quote the last scene in the movie when I was romancing the ladies. Like Chris Flanders, my degree was in Philosophy and I've written poetry. Back on Kauai.

This is a film version of The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here, is it? I'd love to see the film as I'm a big Tennessee Williams fan.

Heavens to Murgatroid! Thanks for posting! Very interesting. The roles played in the movie by Taylor and Burron (whose given last name was Jenkins) were played on Broadway by Tallulah Bankhead and Tab Hunter. And Noel Coward's character in the film is called "The Witch of Capri". Odd...I thought a male witch was a warlock. No matter...it's a cool clip !!!

Beautiful job done here. I never saw the movie but I remain fascinated by "Liz & Dick" to this day. They were, to me, the Hollywood's greatest love affair. Both beautiful and talented and passionate. I really love how the light reflects in her eyes at the end. I know a man who saw Elizabeth many, many years ago when she was in town to film a movie, and he said that she had no makeup on at all but was still stunningly beautiful.

Do you remember Michael Dunn, the dwarf who appeared in Boom with Elizabeth Taylor? There is a really good biography out about Michael. It is called The Big Life of a Little Man: Michael Dunn Remembered and it is available at amazon.com for those of you who are interested in a great read about an amazing man. Rest in peace, Ms. Taylor.
