Certainly younger folks will remember her as being bat shit crazy or geting married like 80 times, but she was one of the last true "Stars" of Hollywood. She was beautiful in her hay day and a very talented actress.
THREADS MERGED - BIG H
Dont know if anyone is aware of this, or even cares, but Screen siren Elizabeth Taylor passed away today after suffering illness for sometime, aged 79.
Bless her, she was a real stunner back in her pomp
RIP Liz
I was surprised to hear she was only 79 - seems to have been a screen legend forever so I kind of thought she was in her 70s in the eighties.
Have to say I don't think I have actually ever seen any of her films :-\
Yea It suprised me to know she was only 79, although a decent age, I thought she was alot older than that !Quote:

I agree, she was a fine looking woman in her hey day. Her looks kind of rotted quite early, but that tends to happen to women and more so if they tend to marry once a year. Men tend to age much better than women. You just need to compare Carey Grant at 40 with Elizabeth Taylor at 40. Night and day IMO and I don't mean that in a gay way.
Anyway, she had a good innings and it was just her time.
Its hard to see how cosmetic companies can continue to trade .
Barbra Cartland - Liz Taylor both gone , they will now have to bank on Joan Collins keeping them afloat.
Yes she was a beauty RIP.
