Liz & Lindsay


I finally managed to take a look at "Liz & Dick", the Primetime TV movie centering around the stormy love story between Liz Taylor and Richard Burton. It won't win any award for acting or screenwriting, but the photography was good and the costumes great. I don't think Lindsay ever gets to wear the same outfit twice.

And of course, there are the headscarf scenes. Here is Lindsay wearing a turban-like rear tie...

There is a convertible ride at one point where she (or her stand-in) wears a Classic wrap. Unfortunately there aren't any close-ups. How could they have Lindsay in a Classic and not show her?

A shame, that was the only scene in the movie with a wrap other than rear ties or turbans. Fortunately, LiLo
does wear a variety of them from simple peasant-type ones...






... A front-tied one...
  ... And another turban-like scarf that was seen a lot in promotional pictures.


"Liz & Dick" is not an especially great movie but neither a complete train wreck. I suspect it won't be the final word on the last ever diva, anyway.
