Director: Joseph Losey
Writer: Tennessee Williams
Genre: Drama
Tagline: She outlived six rich men!
Music: John Barry
Cinematography: Douglas Slocombe
Cast: Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, Noel Coward
Plot: The incredibly rich writer Sissy Goforth lives alone with her servants and nurses on the top of a Mediterranean island, on which she makes her own rules. Her days consist of dictating her autobiography and begging for injections. Here comes Chris Flanders, a.k.a. the angel of death - he has the weird habit of paying visit to unfortunate ladies shortly before their death. Sissy dresses him like a Japanese warrior, and he contemplates in that outfit the waves breaking against the rocks below. The witch of Capri - a neighbour - is invited to share their dinner, a larger than life - and still moving - monster of the sea.

I know this is one of John Waters favourite movies (and I can see why...). I can't believe it hasn't been released on DVD yet
