(1968, Joseph Losey) On her own secluded island, a terminal-but-in-denial Elizabeth Taylor trades barbs with Noël Coward’s “Witch of Capri” until the advent of a mysterious Richard Burton as the “Angel of Death.” Adapted from Tennessee Williams’ The Milk Train Doesn’t Stop Here Anymore. “The best failed art film ever, so genuinely beautiful and awful that it’s perfect.” - John Waters. Approx. 113 min. 35mm.
Introduced by James Grissom, author of the new book Follies of God: Tennessee Williams and the Women of the Fog (published by Knopf). Copies of the book will be available for sale at our concession, with book signing to follow screening.
