Members remos Posted March 23, 2011 Members Share Posted March 23, 2011 I do believe she acknowledged Mike Todd as the ultimate love of her life. I wonder what Debbie Reynolds will say today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted March 23, 2011 Members Share Posted March 23, 2011 Cat on a Hot Tin Roof is also one of my favorites. I think she is so damn gorgeous in that film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted March 23, 2011 Members Share Posted March 23, 2011 This New York Times tribute to her life and career is a wonderfully written and worthy of Elizabeth: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/24/movies/elizabeth-taylor-obituary.html?hp=&adxnnl=1&adxnnlx=1300895898-aUHU4iAiT0HLxSxG1PMa/Q Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members reallyhateskateonlost Posted March 23, 2011 Members Share Posted March 23, 2011 One of the greats. The movie stars of today can hold a candle to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 23, 2011 Author Members Share Posted March 23, 2011 Thanks. This was great to read, very thorough. She outlived the man who wrote her obituary - that says it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 23, 2011 Members Share Posted March 23, 2011 As I've said before, at her peak, she was the most powerful,, beautiful, and naturally gifted dramatic actress in Hollywood. Not to mention, she was and will always be the true definition of a STAR. Very few like her ever come along in a lifetime, and with her passing, we've really lost the last of golden Hollywood royalty from the classic age.

Members quartermainefan Posted March 23, 2011 Members Share Posted March 23, 2011 How sad. She was an unrivaled beauty I think. I didn't see all her movies, but a few out for me as winners: Father Of The Bride and Father's Little Dividend, A Place In The Sun, and Cat On A Hot Tin Roof. She was a saint to devote 20 years to AIDS research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 23, 2011 Members Share Posted March 23, 2011 Taylor and Burton on Here's Lucy. Burton apparently couldn't stand Lucille Ball. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsFaxeWnSz4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 23, 2011 Members Share Posted March 23, 2011 Liz hated Butterfield 8 and thought it was a sucky film she got forced into doing by the studio. She did win her first Oscar for the film, though she credits her health problems for helping her win it. Too bad her win for Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? is uploaded on YouTube yet...

Members jcar03 Posted March 23, 2011 Members Share Posted March 23, 2011 People magazine pointed out that her death came 53 years and 1 day after the plane crash that killed Mike Todd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 23, 2011 Members Share Posted March 23, 2011 Too bad her last interview was with Kim Kardashian: http://www.harpersbazaar.com/magazine/feature-articles/kim-kardashian-elizabeth-taylor-interview-0311 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted March 23, 2011 Members Share Posted March 23, 2011 I guess Harper's Bazaar wanted it to look like a passing-of-the-torch sort of thing. If you ask me, though, it only points up how far this culture has come since "Lucky Liz" - and how low it has sunk, too. (Wanna be like Liz, Kim? Well, then, do something more than have a nice behind. That would be a start.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
