TCM Greatest Classic Films: Legends - Taylor & Burton (4FE)(DVD)THE V.I.P.s (1963) - Fog rolls in, grounding air traffic. Over the next fateful night, elite passengers awaiting London-to-U.S. fl ights must face problems instead of fleeing them. Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton and more deliver romantic melodrama mixed with wry comedic flourishes. THE SANDPIPER (1965) - Rapturous Big Sur is the backdrop as a minister (Burton) is torn between his yearnings for a beautiful free spirit (Taylor) and his love for his wife (Eva Marie Saint). Directed by Vincente Minnelli from a screenplay by Dalton Trumbo and Michael Wilson. WHO’S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? (1966) - Taylor and Burton are ideal as malevolent marrieds in first-time film director Mike Nichols’ searing film of Edward Albee’s groundbreaking play (written for the screen by Ernest Lehman). The movie won a total of five Oscars®* and remains a taboo-toppling landmark. THE COMEDIANS (1967) - Romantic and political passions are set ablaze in Haiti during the brutal rule of Papa Doc Duvalier. Burton and Taylor lead a who’s-who cast of stars caught up in the strongman’s reign of terror in a story as disturbing and redeeming as mankind’s conflicted heart.]]>

Classic films of Taylor and Burton
This dvd collection of four films is essential if you're a fan of Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. It features their top four joint collaborations. The package arrived earlier then expected. The dvds are in one dvd box and are stacked on top eachother. The top dvd was lose and banged around in the box. The others were secured. All of the dvds are scratched but it does not seem to hinder the quality of the film. I removed one star because they are NOT new. How can they be if they are all scratched in various different areas?Overall, an amazing collection to own just the same.

Watch the VIPs firstly
Miss Taylor shines as the tormented wife in the VIPs.

A Must Have for Tayor-Burton Fans
This collection is worth having for Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf alone. But you get three other gems included. The Sandpiper is great. The others are less well known films but still intriguing. If you are a Taylor-Burton fan, don't miss it.

Terrific Collection of Taylor/Burton Films
Purchased to replace an old, scratched 'Sandpiper' dvd . 'Sandpiper' is one of my favorite Taylor movies and had watched 'Virginia Woolf' previously, but had never seen 'The VIPs' or 'The Comedians'. Highly recommend 'The Comedians', for a harsh education in what it's like living in a corrupt, poor country. Glad to have all in my dvd collection and to have purchased at a great price.

Save Your Money
First off, I’m not sure why there are Barbara Stanwyck reviews on this product. This is a DVD collection of four Elizabeth Taylor/Richard Burton movies they made together.The best reason I’ve found to buy this collection is for the physical copy of “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” Although I haven’t seen the other three movies yet, the reviews online are not promising. There are better TCM collections out there for similar or less money, such as Barbara Stanwyck’s or Jimmy Stewart. I somewhat regret purchasing this item, especially since the first copy arrived damaged and I’m now faced with the inconvenience of sending it back. The second copy arrived as it should have.
