2. The Violet-Eyed Temptress

“When the sun comes up, I have morals again.”
A star from all sides - causing controversy throughout her entire career, (and even now, post retirement) enlightening the world with her talent, lifestyle and love affairs; Elizabeth Taylor, the most beautiful woman ever filmed, made the world her playground... and we cheered her for it.

Favourite performance: Suddenly, Last Summer
Favourite films: Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Cleopatra
Leading men of choice: Montgomery Clift, Richard Burton

Films seen: Little Women, Father of the Bride, A Place in the Sun, Cat On a Hot Tin Roof, BUtterfield 8, Cleopatra, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?.

Favourite performance: Cat On a Hot Tin Roof.

Why I Like Her: One of a kind actress, who made (one of the few) successful jumps from child star to successful adult (and won 2 Oscars in the process). My appreciation is only dampened by the overpraise of her two Oscar winning performances.
