Ep. 176- Cleopatra

Front Row Classics: A Hollywood Golden Age Podcast

So Many Noble Rulers.

Front Row Classics is taking a look at one of the most talked about films of the 20th century. We’re celebrating the 60th anniversary of Cleopatra from 1963. Ryan Lootens and Erin McCabe from Front Row Flashbacks are joining Brandon to take a look as this gargantuan epic directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz. We take a look at the strengths and flaws of a film that nearly bankrupted 20th Century Fox. Other topics include the storied affair of Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, the expert performance of Rex Harrison and the incredible excess that is seen in every frame of the film.

FEATURING: Brandon Davis, Erin McCabe and Ryan Lootens
