The Essentials - Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor
Taylor and Burton appeared together in nearly a dozen films and in 1983 also co-starred on Broadway in Noel Coward's Private Lives. Ms. Taylor was nominated five times for Best Actress Academy Awards -- for Raintree County, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Suddenly, Last Summer, Butterfield 8 and Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? She won for the latter two. Burton never received any Oscars® although he was nominated seven times -- for Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, My Cousin Rachel, The Robe, Becket, The Spy Who Came in from the Cold, Anne of the Thousand Days and Equus.
Richard Burton died of a cerebral hemorrhage in 1984, and friends say Taylor calls Burton "one of the two great loves of my life." (The other was Hollywood producer Mike Todd, who died tragically in a plane crash just after their first anniversary.) After starring in nearly 60 feature films, Elizabeth Taylor has been a tireless humanitarian in her recent years. In spite of struggling with serious health problems, she has raised more than $100 million in the crusade against AIDS.

    I just saw the original Brief Encounter for the 10th time at least only it was in color. This version is very enjoyable & both Burton & Loren are terrific in it; however, I don't feel the chemistry or the intensity between them like in the original. In fact, Loren's over thinking of it is very annoying. She doesn't sound tortured at all, just realizing she is not doing the right thing. Thank you for uploading & letting me watch it.

    Michael Parkinson's excuse for his casual attire doesn't ring true to me. It shows lack of respect to his guest. Is he trying to have us believe because it was early in the morning, that he couldn't find a shirt & tie to put on. He must of known that he was going to interview the great Richard Burton when he left the house that morning.

    Presumably knowing Mr Burton he would have to have approved with the main story of the show before being in it ie Banks are crimminal entities. One of his wives in the late 1970s did a lot to age Mr Burton (not the way u tickturds think) to the point of his untimely murder. Love how he took the mickie out of the press about him being a fake alcholic like Prince killed himself or Mr M Jackson was an accident. I thought his last movie was 1984 but he was supposed to be in wild geese 2 about Rudolf Hess the english go between of WW2 just before he was murdered in 1987 ie the signal of the falling of the iron curtain as organised by both sides (ie the same sides) years in advance of the sh t you are fed and love to eat
