Richard Burton was a regal, commanding presence
of the 1960's cinema. Although some critics say he wasted
his considerable talents, some of his films, like BECKETT,
EQUUS, and WHO'S
AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF?, are enduring testaments to
Richard Burton's powerful dramatic skills and wonderful Welsh
accented voice.
Burton's defining role was as a fallen priest
in NIGHT OF THE IGUANA, opposite screen beauty Ava Gardner. Other notable films include: CLEOPATRA and THE
LONGEST DAY.
Richard Burton was married to fellow super
star Elizabeth Taylor.
