Elizabeth Taylor (1932-2011) was one of the greatest stars in the history of Hollywood. As an actress and an icon, she has been a driving force in cinema and the arts for most of her life, and now, after her recent passing, we welcome the chance to pay tribute to one of the greats with a selection of some of her most interesting and acclaimed work. You'll find Oscar-winning performances, delirious campfests, dark turns, three Tennessee Williams adaptations, two vehicles for her and Richard Burton, and the majestic force of the larger-than-life passions that drove her both onscreen and off. Seeing her preside on the big screen in Reflections in a Golden Eye during our Visions of the South series was an exceptional treat. So the Belcourt would like to invite you to spend the summer- with Liz...

SUDDENLY, LAST SUMMER
The film that sounded the death knell for the Hays Production Code, this Tennessee Williams adaptation featured cannibalism, homosexuality, pimpcraft, forcible lobotomization, drug and alcohol abuse (behind the scenes), and the lingering hint of incest. Taylor won a Golden Globe and was nominated for an Oscar, and though society didn't crumble, the Production Code fell by the wayside. With Katharine Hepburn and Montgomery Clift.
Dir. Joseph L. Mankiewicz, USA, 1959, 114min, 35mm
