Cleopatra

Mankiewicz, Joseph L.

Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton star in this Academy Award-winning, epic retelling of the life and loves of the Egyptian queen. Desperate to hold onto her throne in the face of Roman expansion, Cleopatra (Taylor) employs all her charms in an attempt to secure an alliance with Julius Caesar (Rex Harrison). When Caesar is subsequently murdered, however, a vulnerable Cleopatra quickly turns her affections to popular Roman general Mark Antony (Burton).

But although the relationship initially fares well, it’s not long before the once proud general, now emasculated by the queen’s charms, is reduced to a shadow of his former self that presages the doomed lovers’ ultimate fate.
