As good as Elizabeth Taylor was in the 1950s and 1960s, she was horrible and self indulgent in the 1970s. In nearly every film of the decade, she appears to be making it all up as she goes along.

She comes across as entitled to be as obnoxious as she wants, act as badly as she can, and wear clothes two sizes too small and twenty years too young for her.

On one hand, she seems overconfident and not even bothering to act. On the other hand, she seems to show up just for the paycheck.

The worst part of it is dragging Michael Caine and Susannah York with her. The true travesty of this film is them making Margaret Leighton look and act like Quentin Crisp in drag.
