Elizabeth Taylor, one of the most beautiful women and sought-after actresses in the world, with her enchanting violet eyes, was praised since her first film role at the age of ten. Her life was always overflowing: worldwide fame and million-dollar... fees, streams of tears and mountains of jewels, eight marriages and endless family scandals, whims and iron will, terrible illnesses and plastic surgeries, farce and provocations. She annoyed and delighted, received two Academy Awards and was nominated for the title of worst actress of the year. She constantly experienced an insatiable thirst for life, destructive when it came to drinking, fast food, or pills, but each time helped her rise again after another blow of fate. She never held back her feelings and believed there was nothing worse than being insensitive. She worried about trifles but could risk everything, was able to empathize, was ready to replace hostages taken by terrorists, and dedicated her last years to the fight against AIDS. The royal Cleopatra, the stubborn Katherine, the promiscuous alcoholic Martha - Elizabeth Taylor, the "sacred monster" of Hollywood, a burning comet that left an indelible mark on the cinematic sky.
