Liz in Paris
Here is the trailer from one of Elizabeth Taylor’s memorable films, The Last Time I Saw Paris, made in 1954 also starring Van Johnson, Donna Reed, Walter Pidgeon, and Eva Gabor. Based on a short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald, it’s about an ex-pat couple living the Paris high life in the late 1940s after WWII and has a tragic ending. Elizabeth Taylor looks breathtakingly beautiful in the film and her performance as a reckless free spirit is quite good. The haunting title song is by Jerome Kern with lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II.
