I was never really fan of Elizabeth Taylor’s acting — that squeaky voice drove me crazy — but was there ever a lovelier woman to look at?
Today, we’ll concentrate on the younger Liz:
Next time we’ll do color, just to see those violet eyes in all their glory.
Indeed, in her younger years she was ravishing.
And them eyes. OMG

I meant Mickey Rooney back in 1944 when he and Liz were in “National Velvet” and he nabbed that cherry. She was 12 and he was 24.
Mickey Cohen? Lana Turner was the one who liked to hang out with gangsters.
I did read once that Liz liked to get slapped around a bit as foreplay.
Generically good looking, but nothing amazing. Shrug
For one or two divorces, maayyybe the guys were bums, but seven divorces? You have to figure she was a bitch on wheels to live with.
Richard Burton gave it a try, twice. but I think you’re right
One of her husbands died the year after they were married, so I expect you’re right.
I think her worst trouble was that she was very “passionate” – so much so that she could hardly act interested on film in the male lead of whatever movie she was filming without hopping into bed with him – but mistook sleeping with a guy for falling in love. It made for better movies when she and Burton could hardly get through a scene without ripping each others clothes off and getting it on for real, but dumping Eddie Fisher and marrying Burton was a dumb move.
