| by Pep How beautiful they are, I believe there's more beautiful girls that are more beautiful than Elizabeth Taylor or Rita Hayworth, and they would never get the chance to make it into the Hollywood Spotlight. Comment on this... |

| by LizzyDizzy Oddly enough she has never considered herself a beautiful woman. She has said that she had always thought Ava Gardner was a much more beautiful woman. Comment on this... | ||||

| by LizzyDizzy Some of her modest films are still watchable today, contrary to their reputation, and it is the more ambitious movies which let the audience down. The much despised "The Girl Who Had Everything" is still entertaining, as is "Love Is Better Than Ever". However, "The Last Time I Saw Paris" is boring because it repeatedly flouts one of the primary rules of narrative. Again and again, there is no narrative progress within a scene, so that the situation at the end of the scene is exactly the same as at the beginning. Comment on this... |

| by LizzyDizzy Yet neither the decline in her looks nor the scandalised response to her private life affected Elizabeth's career in the 1960s. She was able to command huge sums for making a film, although almost none of the movies were much admired. The media was now interested only in her private life and her finances, and never tired of reporting how much she had spent buying a particular diamond or throwing a party. As the decade progressed, Elizabeth's name became synonymous with financial extravagance and vulgarity. When challenged about the way she spent money, Elizabeth would dryly declare that it was good for the economy! Elizabeth is one of the most influential films stars ever. More than any other star, she demonstrated that it was possible to have a successful career in the teeth of ferocious personal criticism, and that it was not necessary to kow-tow to columnists or pressure groups. She also demonstrated that the general public would continue to support an actor of whose private life they might not approve. Elizabeth was the first film star to demand a million dollars as her starting price for making a movie, and was also the first to demand that entire movie projects should be re-constructed around her. The demands that Elizabeth pioneered are commonplace among big stars now, but today's stars should recognise that the path was cleared for them by Elizabeth Taylor. Comment on this... |

| by LizzyDizzy One extraordinary aspect of Elizabeth's career has not been noted at all. Whereas Marilyn Monroe became better-looking as she matured, Elizabeth's looks deteriorated early. She was far more beautiful between her late teens and mid twenties, when she was merely famous but not yet supremely famous, than she was when her name and reputation were known even to people who never went to the cinema.

| by dumb_bee12 I was wonderin' if any of you could help me. I'm looking for a movie that starred Elizabeth Taylor. I forgot what the title was. All I know is that one of Tchaikovsky's songs was a recurring theme and that the story line went something like this: There's this really talented musician. I think he was dating Taylor. But later, he dumps her, and it's this whole story about how she copes with that and such. Can any of you help?? Comment on this... | ||||

| by Justin Tobias Jennifer's beauty surpasses that of Liz Taylor's by a far greater extent. She is also the sweetest, most beautiful young woman I've ever met. I've actually seen her in person. She has the most amazing eyes, nose, and is just all out right beautiful. Jennifer is one who really lifts my spirits and is the star that shines brightest in my life. If anyone ever talks bad about Jennifer, I'll be very angry. And believe me, u'll also hear a great deal from me if u ever do. Comment on this... |
