We've Lost a Legend!!! :

I hadn't heard that yet, LadyM. This is a loss. Legend she truly was. I remember all of that as well. At one time, she was the most beautiful woman in the world (well, to me anyway). These past few years she has had so many medical problems and was in pain most of the time. I enjoyed all of her roles in the movies especially in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof with Paul Newman and Burl Ives. Not many of the good ones left anymore. We felt like they were part of our family we were so familiar with them. The actors (if you can call them that) today just don't compare with all of the ones that we 'knew' when we were younger. And it shows in the caliber of movies that are being foisted upon us now.

Personally even though I might not have always agreed with her Moral values and such, she was an awesome lady and a wonderful actress and a beautiful woman. I can remember a lot of people at one time wanting to be like her, or wish that they could act as well as she could. Since hearing of her passing a little over 24 hrs. ago makes me wish some channel would do a dedication of her movies for like a day or so just so I would have a chance to see some of her much loved classics as well.

Hello Marissa , morning when i read news paper i saw this and i was shocked and didn't believe my eyes and kept news channels and saw that , even that beauty woman, who gave real meaning to beauty and passion and such a lady had passed away, and my memory with her is her role of Cleopatra........

LadyMarissa, I will always remember her astounding beauty who has mesmerized like us with her movies like Cleopatra, Cat on A Hot Tin Roof, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf and many other unforgettable classics. Like all of us, I suppose we could not escape the harsh realities of aging which really took a toll on both her health and appearance. Yet, I have to credit her for her undying philanthropy spirit who despite her daunting health conditions where she broke her hip no less than 5 times, overcoming her congestive heart failure, survived a benign brain tumor, skin cancer, faced life-threatening bouts with pneumonia twice and Alzheimer - had been actively supporting causes for the poor and AIDS. Even off the screen, she is raking in reputation in the arts and entertainment circles. Her astute collections of diamonds and artworks which over the years had launched her as a designer and elite. She even had her own perfumes namely "Passion", "White Diamonds", and "Black Pearls", which were believed to have brought an estimated US$200 million sales. Not forgetting to mention, that even till today her "White Diamonds" fragrance is still amongst the top 20 favorites in the world. She is indeed an admirable person both on and off the screen and Hollywood has indeed lost another remarkable actress - Elizabeth Taylor (February 27, 1932 – March 23, 2011).

This is quite sad. I loved Elizabeth Taylor's beauty and her grace as well. She has one of the most beautiful eyes I have seen. I have seen Cleopatra before and she is such a beauty to behold. So gracious and so perfect and ageless. Even at 79, you can still see her beauty and grace when I watched her on some of her tv appearances in the past year or so. It's sad that she's gone but definitely, she will always be remembered.

Truly a great loss. . .for movies, and for the world. She was a trendsetter in so many ways. I hope she has finally found true happiness and peace.

I really don't have any vibrant memories of Liz... she was just part of the zeit geist. But I must say that I was surprised that she was 'only' 79... I thought she was older.

Hi ladyM, I loved all her movies and the one that I love best was National Velvet, oh, I wante4d a horse too, as I was a little girl at the time of the movie was made, since then I have watched every single movies she made, well we sahall certainley miss her. R.I.P Elizabeth Taylor. Tamara

Was she playing Alexis is Dynasty? Or am I mistakening her for someone else?
