Handlung
WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesDame Elizabeth Taylor and her husband, Mike Todd, had planned for Die Katze auf dem heißen Blechdach (1958) to be her final movie, as she intended to retire from the screen. Todd had made a verbal agreement about this with MGM, but after his death, MGM forced Taylor to make this movie in order to fulfill the terms of her studio contract. As a result, Taylor refused to speak to director Daniel Mann for the entire production and hated this movie.
- PatzerA crew member's arm is visible in the mirror when Liggett stands before it and is supposedly alone.
- Zitate
Tom, the Bartender: Without her this place is dead. She's like catnip to every cat in town.

Ausgewählte Rezension
That mink coat!
John O'Hara's novel was way ahead of its time. Daniel Mann's "Butterfield 8" was a film that capitalized on the lurid aspects of the book, but actually was turned into a soap opera. By today's standards it looks kind of ridiculous, but of course, it was meant to reflect the period of the late fifties in which the action is set.
Elizabeth Taylor was at the height of her beauty when the movie was shot. She comes out as the gorgeous creature she was in this vehicle that won her the Oscar that she should have received for other films, notably "Suddenly, Last Summer".
The film will entertain whoever hasn't seen it before. It's obvious Ms. Taylor and her co-star, Lawrence Harvey, had no chemistry whatsoever, as it shows in the film. What was shocking then wouldn't raise an eyebrow now. In the supporting cast, Mildred Dunnock, Betty Field, Dina Merrill give good performances.
Watch this film as curiosity piece to see some of the New York of that era.
