Elizabeth
Taylor is considered one of the last, if not the last major star, to have come
out of the old Hollywood studio system. And not just any studio, the top of the
heap: MGM. Her early movies, as a child in the early 1940s, starred such
Hollywood luminaries as orson Welles,
quickly grew up, however, and by 1950 was, if not starring in, assuming major
responsibilities for the success of motion pictures she appeared in. Then with
major roles onscreen, came worldwide attention off-screen, most notably due to
a succession of famous and/or rich husbands and a series of health crises
throughout her life. To put it simply, Elizabeth Taylor has lived a life far
more exciting and dramatic than any movie she's ever appeared in and probably
most any other movie you could name. She's known internationally for her
beauty, especially for those violet eyes, with which she captured audiences
early on in her youth and has kept the world hooked on ever since. She's won
the Oscar twice and she's earned her place in and out of the sun.
