Burton and Taylor (2013)

Legendary couple Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor’s tumultuous relationship reaches its final chapter when they star together in a 1983 Broadway production of Private Lives. Dominic West and Helena Bonham Carter portray the actors in their twilight. Bonham Carter especially puts quite a bit of effort into embodying Taylor in her flighty but tenacious ways. Despite only focusing on a short part of their history, the script goes a long way in its short time to address the highs and lows they experienced together and how each of the actors’ personal demons were a lead weight on their relationship and themselves.
