Movie Class by PizzaFLIX: Adapted for the screen by brothers Julius J. and Philip G. Epstein. The pair became the first twins to be awarded Oscars when they won in the writing category for CASABLANCA (1942).

Stars: Elizabeth Taylor, Van Johnson, Walter Pidgeon, Donna Reed, Roger Moore, Eva Gabor
Director: Richard Brooks
Writer: F. Scott Fitzgerald (Novel)

TRIVIA: Jack L. Warner, head of Warner Brothers, had a love-hate relationship with the Epstein twin brothers. He could not argue with their commercial success, but he deplored their pranks, their work habits and the hours they kept. In 1952, Warner gave the brothers' names to the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC). They were never called to testify, but on a HUAC questionnaire, when asked if they ever were members of a "subversive organization," they wrote, "Yes. Warner Brothers."

F. Scott Fitzgerald's poignant tale "Babylon Revisited" provides the basis for this film starring Elizabeth Taylor and Van Johnson as tragic, restless lovers striving to find meaning and fulfillment in the bittersweet world of fashionable post-war Paris.

    OMG! Liz was so beautiful in this movie it's almost painful to believe that a human being could look like that. She had an angelic quality about her that was totally gone by the time she did "Virginia Woolf" twelve years later. She was a lovely and gorgeous lady who devoted the last three decades of her life dedicating herself to combating AIDS. She was certainly the one of the great humanitarians of her time. The fact that people now live normal lives with AIDS is probably the greatest testimony to Elizabeth Taylor's greatness and impact on this world.

    OMG I had forgotten how these wonderful old movies make me cry. I haven't had a good cry in a movie for years. So So beautiful.
  • I still remember my grandparents crying together on their velvet couch while watching this. Jeez, whenever they babysit me before, Elizabeth Taylor films were playing on their TV 😆

    What a beauty to behold. She could make, even a mediocre movie, memorable. Indisputable talent, unsurpassed by anyone, in my humble opinion. Miss her.

    What a beautiful classic movie. Once a person falls in love with these he\she will never get back to the modern artificial movies.

    When I was in my teens, my dad and I stayed up real late at night to watch this movie. It was such a sad ending. We both went out and got T-towels and bawled and bawled. Just one of those things you never forget - a special moment between my dad and myself.

    The last time I saw this movie it was on the TV late show, and it was mercilessly shortened and chopped apart with commercials - - to the point where it didn't make sense. It's a pleasure to finally see it in the original full-length version. Thanks!!!

    Not only beautiful, but good actress too. Very nice movie. Thanks for sharing.
  • I love Walter Pidgeon!!! Even as a supporting character, his presence in a film is powerful. Suave, sophisticated, debonair. What a star!!

  • Wiw, this video with actress Elizabeth Taylor revealed her true acting ability. Her magical beauty is indescribable! She gave so much bach as a humanitarian to the cause of HIV-AIDS.
