The 1960s would be defined by Cleopatra, the infamous 1962 epic that was the most expensive film ever made at the time (even then it cost approximately US$40 million) and also the meeting place of Taylor and Richard Burton,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], who she subsequently married and divorced twice. The ancient melodrama, for which Taylor earned a million dollar salary (and a million more in overtime because of legendary production overruns), made most of its budget back,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but as a couple Taylor and the classically trained Burton were more famous than productive. Aside from a young Mike Nichols’ vituperative domestic drama, 1966’s Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], their joint offerings tended more towards 1968’s disastrous Boom.
After 1967’s underrated Reflections in a Golden Eye, overseen by John Huston,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in which Taylor and no less than Marlon Brando play a military couple silently at war in their marriage, her work fell away. As if sensing that the decade couldn’t accommodate her, Taylor spent a good part of the 1970s as a Washington-based political wife to U.S. Senator John Warner. It was this period that required treatment for depression and addiction at the Betty Ford Clinic, and the Taylor that emerged a grand dame, essentially playing herself in cameos or in soap opera stints.
