The V.I.P.s
During the production of the film "Cleopatra" in 1961, Taylor and co-star Richard Burton began an extramarital affair, which caused a scandal. Despite public disapproval, they continued their relationship and were married in 1964. Dubbed "Liz and Dick" by the media, they starred in 11 films together, including "The V.I.P.s" (1963), "The Sandpiper" (1965), "The Taming of the Shrew" (1967), and "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" (1966). Taylor received the best reviews of her career for "Woolf", winning her second Academy Award and several other awards for her performance. She and Burton divorced in 1974, but reconciled soon after, and remarried in 1975. The second marriage ended in divorce in 1976.
