About this product

Product Information

Turning the underbelly of bourgeois academia into a microcosm of human relationships in all their arduous complexities, Mike Nichols' auspicious debut feature is a harrowing descent into the private lives and painful secrets of two couples thrown together for an evening. Based on the controversial play by Edward Albee, this noir-ish 1966 drama stars former real-life couple Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor, in what many critics consider to be their best performances. George (Burton) is a senior professor of history who has turned to alcohol to deal with his vituperative, vicious wife Martha (Taylor), whose appetite for administering abuse knows no bounds. Invited to the couple's home for late-night drinks are new professor Nick (George Segal), and his naďve wife Honey (Sandy Dennis), where over the course of the evening, the polished veneer of the hosts tarnishes grotesquely. The witty repartee of consummate sophisticate Martha degenerates into increasingly violent verbal abuse of both her husband and guests, while George's stoic façade crumbles both physically and emotionally. The horrified Nick and Honey initially come off as happier foils to the misery of the older married couple, but the guests are soon mirroring George and Martha in their mutual antagonism, giving voice to buried resentments and alcohol-fueled revelations of repressed injuries.A director with a reputation for delivering intelligent, "adult" films, Nichols made a remarkably smooth and successful transition from stage to screen with this adaptation of Albee's already-notorious play. Screenwriter Ernest Lehman kept the text of the play virtually intact, maintaining the intensity and sheer violence of the frankly foul language. The film shocked audiences, presenting them with a tortuous foray into a love-hate relationship and, ultimately, mental illness. WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? received Academy Award nominations in virtually every category it was eligible for, winning five of them.

    One of the best acted films you will ever see. You can feel the tension from these great actors.

    For those who have never watched this movie before are in for a treat with this very wonderfully acted film with screen legends Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. They don't make movies like this anymore because there aren't many actors this good with as many years of acting experience anymore. The chemistry between Taylor and Burton is absolutely great. Taylor and Burton were also married, not only once to each other, but twice. This film may give us insight into why they divorced and then remarried years later. Do yourself a favor and sit down and watch this film classic!

    The commentary and background info are worth the price of admission!

    The Burtons are at it again! Elisabeth and Richard give a dynamite performance. "Fasten your seat belts!" One of the turning points in cinema!
