If all girls in the world could choose their appearance when they were born, then the vast majority of them would choose to be a beautiful girl.
It's just that the word beautiful has different definitions in different countries and eras, and the Tang Dynasty regarded fat as beauty, and later generations even tied their feet together, thinking that the deformed feet "three-inch golden lotus" were more beautiful.
Since each era has a different definition of beauty and a different understanding of beauty, is there such a face in the world, no matter what era, no matter what customs and beliefs, as long as you see such a face, you must sigh that it looks so beautiful.
Is there such a person?
Really, this star is the muse of countless critics, even if you are a harsh person, when you meet such a peerless beauty, you still can't help but beat your heart.
She is Elizabeth Taylor.
It was in 1959 that 20th Century Fox, a famous Hollywood film production company, spent a huge sum of $3 million that year to build an extremely magnificent Alexander Castle in London, England.
This is 3 million US dollars that year, I don't know how much gold can be exchanged, and the company built this castle of course not to lose money and make money, but to set the scene for a huge movie, this castle has completely reproduced the luxury of the ancient Egyptian court, extremely luxurious.
Although the props are expensive, in the director's opinion, this castle can be bought with money, so it is not an expensive thing. With an Egyptian castle, it is natural that an Egyptian Cleopatra is also needed, and the bricks and tiles used to build the castle can be replaced, but this big beauty can't.
Beauty is an even more scarce resource, and Elizabeth Taylor happens to have this gift of living alone, when the crew only filmed eight minutes in the castle, and Elizabeth Taylor said a word right after.
It was this sentence that made the palace and the lake that countless people had worked so hard to build all invalid, and the entire castle became a pile of broken bricks.
Not only that, but the artificial trees and all kinds of landscaping were also demolished, and everything that could be sold was sold, and everything that could be thrown away was thrown away.
At that time, during the filming, the big beauty found out that she was suffering from severe pneumonia, and the worried Elizabeth said to the crew, it is too cold here in London, there is such fog all year round, the air is very bad, and I want to go to a sunnier place.
There is no way, the director can only obediently respect Elizabeth Taylor's opinion, after all, she is too good-looking, the role of Cleopatra is tailor-made for her, this movie can do without a castle, but it can't do without her existence.
Isn't it just demolishing the castle? Dismantle as much as you like, dismantle as much as you like.
The other party's face is arrogant capital, and the protagonist can destroy a city with a word, which is even more excessive than the "Beacon Opera Princes" back then, but the director and the management are all willing, because she is really beautiful.
If other actresses dared to do this, the director would have been clamoring for a change of actors, but Elizabeth Taylor is so different.
In 1959, when the famous movie star Marilyn Monroe learned that a company was going to shoot "Cleopatra", she called to play the role and decided to ask for a salary of $100,000.
Monroe is a top movie star in Hollywood, this price is not low, but it is acceptable, but what Monroe never expected was that his competitor turned out to be Elizabeth Taylor, and 20th Century Fox was even willing to pay Elizabeth Taylor a full million dollars.
We all know the later story, "Cleopatra" has become an indispensable classic in the history of film, among which the lazy, cozy but still strategizing Cleopatra is even more unforgettable, Elizabeth Taylor, this great beauty is really good.
This incident made Marilyn Monroe so angry that she was wearing Cleopatra's costume at home, and she admitted defeat, this protagonist, she really can't fight.
Taylor is like a tailor-made gift to the United States, in the fall of 1943, World War II was still going on, but little Taylor, who was only 11 years old, received a book "Jade Goddess Pony".
From the current point of view, the movie is so clichéd, the picture is not clear, and the plot has nothing to say. But it is precisely because of this movie that Elizabeth Taylor's status as a child star was established in one fell swoop, almost Shirley Temple of that era.
But Taylor didn't stop there, in that era when entertainment news was still more complicated, Elizabeth Taylor became a household name, but it was not a good name, but an infamy.
Taylor's private life was a mess and was the subject of criticism from many Mr. Morality, who had been married four times and wives to four different men in the nine years she had been 18 to 27.
Why did the film company dare to spend millions of dollars to invite her to star in "Cleopatra"? It is because the company believes that even after this beauty continues to get married and divorced, her charm will still not diminish, and it is still the guarantee of the box office.
On May 6, 1950, Taylor married the famous rich second-generation Hilton, which was the Hilton of the Hilton Hotel.
Taylor admits that this is a romantic character who is perfect for being a boyfriend, but just can't be a husband. Before marriage, the husband's gambling can be said to be extremely chic, after all, he does not use his own money, but after becoming a family, he spends money so lavishly, it is not a life for people.
Moreover, the other party also abused himself, and even aborted the child in his belly because of the beating, how sad.
Just eight months later, Taylor divorced. But she didn't stop after the divorce, and in 1952, she married herself to Michael, a British actor who was 20 years older. The marriage lasted five years, but eventually ended in divorce, but just two days later, Taylor married Todd, a 48-year-old Hollywood producer.
No one believes that it only took Taylor two days to fall in love with Todd, so many people say that this big beauty Hongxing went out of the wall and did something wrong.
Taylor didn't bother to explain, she just wanted to live her life. But just 13 months after the couple got married, Todd was killed in a plane crash. Of course Taylor was sad, she had several husbands, but it was her first time being a widow, and it was a bad feeling.
But what Taylor did next was even more infuriating, she directly snatched her best friend Debbie Renault's male companion, Eddie Fisher, who is also a Hollywood superstar, and they got married immediately.
In a sense, the critics were right. During the filming of the legendary "Cleopatra", Taylor and actor Burton had a relationship, but both parties had families at the time, and in desperation, Taylor picked up sleeping pills to force him to die, forcing Burton to divorce, and the fifth husband, Taylor grabbed it.
Taylor really loves Burton, and in the following 22 years, the two sides have been emotionally entangled, constantly divorced and remarried, divorced and remarried, Taylor won the Oscar crown during this period, probably because her feelings continue to fluctuate, and her too much grief leads to delicate and complex thoughts.
Taylor is really unhappy, she has wealth and jewelry, everything that ordinary people dream of, but in the end she actually married herself to political congressman John Warner, and finally threw herself into the power kneading.
The MP was very strong, did not let Elizabeth Taylor wear what she liked, and his life was also dictated, and he could only vent his emotions through overeating, and finally turned himself into a big fat man.
So, after 6 years of marriage, Taylor divorced. The last and eighth marriage was even more of a joke to herself, as she married Larry Fortensky, a truck driver who was a teenager her junior.
said that he was married, but in fact, it was better to say that he had adopted this young man, and for another six years, Taylor was still divorced.
She has been seeking love all her life, so in 2010, 78-year-old Taylor still wants to be the ninth bride, and her little boyfriend is only 49 years old, nearly 30 years younger than her, but she is love.
But this peerless beauty can no longer go to the palace of marriage, she died in 2011, everyone knows that she was once beautiful and has a lot of money, but everyone also knows that Taylor is not happy.
