Cleopatra<\/b><\/i> is a 1963 American epic<\/a> historical drama film<\/a> directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz<\/a>, with a screenplay adapted by Mankiewicz, Ranald MacDougall<\/a> and Sidney Buchman<\/a> from the book The Life and Times of Cleopatra<\/i> by Carlo Maria Franzero, and from histories by Plutarch<\/a>, Suetonius<\/a>, and Appian<\/a>. It stars Elizabeth Taylor<\/a> in the eponymous role. Richard Burton<\/a>, Rex Harrison<\/a>, Roddy McDowall<\/a>, and Martin Landau<\/a> are featured in supporting roles. It chronicles the struggles of Cleopatra<\/a>, the young Queen of Egypt, to resist the imperial ambitions of Rome<\/a>. The film achieved notoriety during its production for its massive cost overruns and production troubles, which included changes in director and cast, a change of filming locale, sets that had to be constructed twice, lack of a firm shooting script, and personal scandal around co-stars Taylor and Burton. It was the most expensive film ever made<\/a> up to that point and almost bankrupted 20th Century Fox<\/a>.\u00a0Cleopatra<\/i> was the highest-grossing film of 1963<\/a>, earning box-office of $57.7 million in the United States and Canada (equivalent to $472 million in 2018), yet lost money due to its production and marketing costs of $44 million (equivalent to $360 million in 2018), making it the only film ever to be the highest-grossing film of the year to run at a loss.[5]<\/a><\/sup> It received nine nominations at the 36th Academy Awards<\/a>, including for Best Picture<\/a>, and won four: Best Production Design (Color)<\/a>, Best Cinematography (Color)<\/a>, Best Visual Effects<\/a> and Best Costume Design (Color)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Cleopatra” is a lengthy, sprawling, spectacular love story, helmed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz, depicting Cleopatra’s manipulation of Julius Caesar and Marc Antony in her ill-fated attempt to save the Egyptian empire. This threesome in one of the most famous and gloriously powerful love triangles ever to be captured on film.<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/span><\/p>\n
