CLEOPATRA er en spektakulær og storslået film om en af oldtidshistoriens mest kontroversielle personer. Fra hun som syttenårig bestiger tronen til hendes bitre undergang og selvmord, skildrer Elizabeth Taylor på imponerende vis dronningen af Egypten som en følsom og passioneret kvinde, der bliver opslugt af sin ambition om at herske over hele den civiliserede verden. En af de største kærlighedshistorier nogensinde bliver genskabt, da hendes forhold til Mark Antony (Richard Burton) fører til hendes undergang. Et detaljeret og stærkt portræt af en genial og fascinerende kvinde. Beskrivelse: [ Dansk Engelsk ]
This epic, spectacular love story of Egyptian queen Cleopatra and the Roman leaders Julius Caesar and Marc Antony has dazzled audiences with its elaborate sets, daring costumes, and thrilling sea battle since its release, but these can't compare with Elizabeth Taylor as the mesmerizing Cleopatra, struggling to save her Egyptian empire. When this film was released, it was known as much for its opulent filmmaking as it was for its huge budget overruns it took two years to film because of Taylor's various ailments and a major script rewrite by Joseph L. Mankiewicz, moving the shooting studio from England to Italy, and replacing the original director and the actors to play the Roman leaders as well as the very public and tempestuous offscreen affair between costars Taylor and Richard Burton, who duplicated their romance on the silver screen as the doomed Cleopatra and her true love, Marc Antony. Despite all the hubbub surrounding the film, audiences realised that its spectacular story could not be denied, and it has remained a classic ever since. The triple-star power of Taylor, Burton, and Rex Harrison (playing Julius Caesar) radiates throughout this lengthy production, and Mankiewicz, a consummate magician at depicting the shadings of human emotion, directed this threesome in one of the most famous and gloriously powerful love triangles ever to be captured on film. |
