    I read Taylor was only 32 when she made this Plays a woman in late 40s. I am continually in awe of her acting. They had to replace her thick wax makeup several times per day due to the hot lights and the physicality necessary in her performance. I'm told she was nothing like this in real life although the tabloids would have you believe otherwise. She was quiet and thoughtful although she was a heavy drinker for years. I love the ending when everything gets real quiet and you have to almost strain to hear them say their lines.

      Elizabeth Taylor was born February 27,1932. The movie was released June 21, 1966. So she was 34 when it was released, probably 33 when filmed. Taylor was only 2 years older than co-star George Segal, but was made to look many years older.

    • @larsnilsson8949
      @larsnilsson8949 Před 4 lety +2

      Actually, she was 34 years old by the time of making this movie, in the autumn of 1965. Their marriage was hectic from the beginning and Burton introduced Taylor in a complete new world with Burton and Peter O´Toole and the legacy of Shakespeare in England, with Burton playing several roles on the Old Vic in London, that was exciting for her and they lived a life with fame and fortune, even though it was destruktive as well, for both of them. Taylor found it very exciting and Burton was in the highest top of his career.

      Martha is 52yo. George is 46yo. "Him, It, That, There." Albee wanted James Mason and Bette Davis for the film. The Burtons did not attend the Oscars that year. He did not attempt to conceal his disappointment (Paul Scofield? Puh-leez. Snore-fest.), and her disgust with the Academy was vociferous, to put it politely. She said, "I've gone to that goddamned 'dinner' four times. I won once because I was dying and didn't deserve it; the whole point is the humiliation of the four losers, despite their lofty claims to the contrary, and we blew the entire field out of the water, all four of us. And they KNOW it."

      MissMulatto I think even Ms. Taylor was pleasantly pleased that she also had the gift for the comedic... This was a totally solid performance Totally worthy of an Academy Award... Mr. Burtons performance also worthy of an Oscar nod...But did not win... If they both had won that would have made the record books in Academy history for best performances by a married couple... But alas not to be... glad you liked the performance as did ... and do I...The fact that Ms. Taylor was only age 32 playing a much more mature woman in her 50 or 60s was a stretch... Her unique beauty still managed to shine through... Beauty is still beauty.. talent is still talent... You are gifted no matter what... anyway take care...✝🎭🎬💖

      From what I read and from Burtons own comments later on apparently, a common belief for him being continuously snubbed in the US was a result of Burtons open communist views. He was openly socialist from a young age but then when he and Elizabeth flew to meet Tito in Yugoslavia, he then switched the wording of his political views from socialist to communist.

    Brilliant direction to do what was not possible on stage, and have the camera follow George while he gets the gun, instead of staying with Martha and her story. Makes this moment ten times as terrifying as it is on stage where we don't see the gun until George's reentrance. So often stage plays come off very stodgy and artificial on film...between this and the dance hall scene, they did a lot to expand it beyond it's stage limits.

      Saw this scene with no context for my film class, to say it shocked me was an understatement. It was so wonderfully shot I actually thought his snapping point had been reached.

    I'm not a super fan of the so called 'New Hollywood' era, but I like this movie alot. It's directed by 'New Hollywood' director Mike Nichols, equipped with a vulgar script full of weighty themes (just like the play). On the other hand, it's filmed in beautiful black and white and features Classic Hollywood stars Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton in their very best. It's the perfect middle ground between Old hollywood and New Hollywood and it happened to come out in 1966, smack dab in the middle of the sixties...

    Two people have come to mix hate with love and psychological war as an expression of their mutual respect and love. Whenever they show the other their vulnerable side, the other one doesn't take the chance to heal, but instead strikes the other one where it hurts. But then they finally snap and the husband ends their destructive anti-lifestyle by "killing" their imaginary son - the only non-hostile thing they had in common.

      There’s a thought for an SNL skit-Hannibal Lechter playing George-now to cast a partner worthy sparring with Lechter. Hmmmmm....

    Liz threw out her soft spoken classy persona to be the brassy crude Martha, Burton his heroic one for the henpecked husband George. Truly great performances by all 4 leads.

    @Aivottaja. "Blue" back in the day was a euphemism, a code word for "adult" as in "adult, sexual." So Blue Laws referred to laws about sexuality; "blue" language referred to cursing, etc. "Blue Games" = "adult games"
