Goodbye, Liz


A legend of a life time was Elizabeth Taylor. I did not watch many of her movies growing up, but I always saw her as a beautiful movie star. Elizabeth was a true movie star, in my book. Her life is a novel.  She was married 8 times to seven men.  We all know that she married Richard Burton, twice. I guess she gave the relationship another chance, hoping for the best, but alas this marriage ended, like the rest. Poor Liz. She did steal her best friends husband, Eddie Fisher. Not a very nice thing to do.   Poor Debbie Reynolds, but how did Debbie stand a chance.  Men just seemed to be captured by her beauty.   Elizabeth Taylor will never really die. She will always be one of the most beautiful women that lived and her movies will never stop being played. Do I have a favorite movie of hers? No, not really.

I can’t help wondering how one of the most beautiful women in the world handled getting older.  Being beautiful is a hard act to follow. No matter what you thought of Elizabeth Taylor, I am sure we can all agree that the world lost a true star.
