Some good clips are present in this tv biography of Elizabeth Taylor, but the people who speak about her are frequently a bit ridiculous. Peter Lawford, who hosts the show, sounds like he is reading the overblown dialogue off cue cards while half sloshed. Miss Taylor's mother tells long rambling stories about her daughter that could be any mother rambling on about her daughter when the guests are about.

The one good sequence shows director Richard Brooks speaking about the death of her husband, Mike Todd and the making of CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF. -- parts of his comments are bleeped out. The rest of it consists of macho guests like Roddy McDowall and Rock Hudson speak of how beautiful she is.
