Starring Helena Bonham Carter and Dominic West, this is the tale of Hollywood's original 'it' couple in the twilight of their star-crossed relationship. When Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton met on the set of Cleopatra, the attraction was immediate.
The public was enthralled by their illicit romance, two tempestuous marriages, frequent break-ups and extravagant reunions. This documentary tells the nostalgic, bittersweet tale of Hollywood's most glamorous couple as they acted together for the last time in Noel Coward's play, Private Lives, in 1983.
