Listen "Cleopatra (1963)"
Episode Synopsis
Adjusted for inflation, Cleopatra is still one of the three most expensive films ever made, even sixty years after its release. Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton's real-life affair dominated the tabloids and overshadowed what was the grandest film of its era. Four hours long and beautiful to look at, it's certainly epic but it has an infamous reputation as one of Hollywood's costliest failures. Guest Paul Kind returns to the podcast to discuss Cleopatra.
