Elizabeth Taylor as Cleopatra VII arriving in Rome in a lavish procession which wins the adulation of the Roman people in “Cleopatra” (1963), directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz. ► Cleopatra's entrance into Rome was nearly ruined when enthusiastic extras started shouting “Liz! Liz!” instead of “Cleopatra! Cleopatra!” ► During Cleopatra's entry into Rome, the shots of the entry of Cleopatra's giant sphinx, and the parade that precedes it, were filmed several months apart, posing problems in matching the lighting. ► The American child actor who played Taylor's four-year-old son got taller during the delay. He was replaced by an Italian boy, complete with a thick, inappropriate accent. ► Elizabeth Taylor signed on to portray the title role for a record-setting salary of $1 million plus ten percent of the box-office gross. ► Taylor stipulated that the film would be shot in Europe and in the Todd-AO format, developed by Taylor's late husband Mike Todd (who had died in 1958), which ensured that Taylor would receive additional royalties. ► The budget for Elizabeth Taylor's costumes was $194,800 which was the highest ever for a single-screen actress. Taylor's costume in this video was made from 24-carat gold cloth. ► “Cleopatra” earned Elizabeth Taylor a Guinness World Record for the most costume changes in a film (65). This record was eclipsed in 1968 by Julie Andrews with 125 costume changes in the film Star!. ► Taylor's costumes were designed by Irene Sharaff who won the Academy Award for “Costume Design ― Color” at the 36th Academy Awards held on April 13, 1964.

Armenia Mentioned In The 1963 Film “Cleopatra” 🇦🇲 ➖➖➖ “By your authority … you will cede to Egypt immediately the following territories: Judea, Jordan, Armenia, Phoenicia…” ‘Cleopatra’ (1963) is a historical drama starring Elizabeth Taylor as the legendary Queen of Egypt and Richard Burton as Mark Antony. The film chronicles Cleopatra’s political rise, her passionate romances with Julius Caesar and Antony, and her struggle to preserve Egypt’s independence amid the power struggles of Rome. With production costs of about $31 million, plus $5 million from an aborted British shoot, Cleopatra became the most expensive film ever made and nearly bankrupted 20th Century Fox. Including $13 million for distribution and advertising, total costs rose even higher. Despite this, it was the highest-grossing film of 1963, earning $57.7 million in North America and ranking among the decade’s top box office hits. It remains one of Hollywood’s most iconic and extravagant productions to mention Armenia in its script. 🎬 Zartonk Editor Vanessa Titoyan

Maurice Ronet in The Fire Within (1963) I’d go with this one if Daniel Day Lewis was not an option. Maurice Ronet delivers such a unique and authentic performance that he embodies the depths of depression and loneliness unlike anything you’ll see.
