Cleopatra

Cleopatra is a spectacular and mammoth film presentation of one of the most controversial figures of ancient history. From her ascent to the throne at the age of seventeen to her bitter downfall and suicide, Elizabeth Taylor poignantly portrays the Queen of Egypt as a sensitive, passionate woman consumed by her ambition to rule the entire civilized world. One of the greatest love stories of all time is recreated as her explosive relationship with Mark Antony (Richard Burton) leads to eventual ruin. An elaborate and powerful account of an ingenious and fascinating woman.
