"Cleopatra" faced countless problems during its filming and
production: passionate casting disputes, broken contracts, a costly
re-location from London to Rome, an emergency tracheotomy for its
star, Elizabeth Taylor, scandal-ridden gossip surrounding
relationships on set, and a budget of $2 million that ballooned to
final costs of $44 million. Legendary producer Walter Wanger
recalls the drama that occurred both on and off the set, including
the incredible obstacles he had to overcome and the exhilaration of
producing a cinematic triumph. A revealing story about Elizabeth
Taylor and Richard Burton's tempestuous romance and an insightful
filmmaker's journal, now back in print for the 50th anniversary of
"Cleopatra"'s release, "My Life with Cleopatra "shares the true
story of the relationship and film that enthralled the world.
"I have been told by responsible journalists that there was more
world interest in "Cleopatra," which I produced, and in its
stars--Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, and Rex Harrison--than in
any event of 1962." --Walter Wanger
