Elizabeth Taylor
If you follow this old Hollywood blog (or my antics on Twitter), you know that one of my greatest blessings in this world is being able to “watch” (the word has never been more accurate!) my three grandbabies during the week while their parents work. Given that these ridiculously adorable grandbabies are ages 1, 2, and 3 (how cool is that?!), it means my days are filled with love, laughter, and one adventure after another!
In other words… while these beloved and cherished little doll babies are here with me, the last thing I intend to do is sit at a computer! This is why, on many days, my old Hollywood blog posts are as short and sweet as these baby boys are.
That’s right… three boys!
So, on days like today, when I have a few minutes before cuteness arrives, I only have time to drop a picture and a few words. Today’s picture of the day is Elizabeth Taylor… so I’m dropping an extraordinary beauty on you and running.
I doubt seriously if you mind.
This stunning photo is a publicity picture for her 1956 film Giant (directed by George Stevens). The movie also stars Rock Hudson, James Dean, Carroll Baker, Sal Mineo, Chill Wills, Dennis Hopper, Mercedes McCambridge, Rod Taylor, and the always wonderful Jane Withers.
You can buy Giant on dvd (Amazon link) or watch the movie on Prime Video.
