How To Enclose A Shower



Over the years, and for many years, I thought that film had no women as before. And I think the woman who sparked the thought in me was Elizabeth Taylor. Seeing her in Ivanhoe, Quo Vadis in (was named Lygia, but Deborah Kerr took the paper and she only made a small cameo) in Cleopatra, in all these historical and adventure films that we saw earlier in TV and we've lost Always seek unless hard on video libraries, libraries or pay channels, I fell in love with her. In his presence, his look, his voice (which was not theirs, of course). Love as only a kid can be a movie star, but love the end of the day. Then the woman rose (or was I who brought up?) And moved to embody something different, more disturbing, more sensual. Cat on a Hot Tin Roof or Suddenly, Last Summer showed the same Elizabeth Taylor as always, that had become forever in Cleopatra, there was his eyes to tell, but it was another. The same woman, but quite another (or was I who had changed?).

And both had changed, that years later I found myself watching an Elizabeth Taylor almost adolescent the bride's father . People remember this movie for being one of the unforgettable, wonderful, unique and never complete couples between Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn and it turns out there she was, beautiful and adorable. As in many other films was less than that I would have liked. And I was fortunate to arrive on time to pay a movie ticket to see Elizabeth Taylor on the big screen, albeit in somewhat lower, almost unworthy of her, her last film, The Flintstones . But she was. And his worst moments could never erase the Elizabeth Taylor that I have in my head, my memory and my heart. Which is dressed in white, which shows sensuality, sexuality, character and energy, I just had to bare his soul and not your body to get what he wanted. The one fight with Paul Newman. That makes me believe that what happens on screen is real. That was Elizabeth Taylor. That will always be Elizabeth Taylor. Susan Hayward Damn, that you took that would have been his first Oscar, even then win two.

Now some say that Elizabeth Taylor was not as good an actress as many other legends of his generation, it was just a movie star who had so many Hollywood golden. Now with his death, many have chosen to remember his last film made 17 years ago and its existence for many women is limited to that of lost causes (and many laudable) to that of the scandals, the diseases or dangerous liaisons. For me it has shut down a star, even a star, but one that never cease to shine, because that was Liz, a star. And no, the word has a derogatory meaning for me, never will be. Will never be less star actress. Never cease to be a woman who fascinated me many years ago, one that first taught me that beauty is something eternal, that as much as some want to delete is captured in a frame that you can play as many times as desired by the end of time. Liz was one of the first women who taught me what being a movie star. And no, there are no women as before on the screen, of course not.
