Martha - profile

Gordon Bau had the task of transforming the 32 year-old Elizabeth Taylor into the frumpy, foul-mouthed, middle-aged Martha for this 1966 production. Just pause and register that this movie was released only three years after Cleopatra and The V.I.P.s and before The Taming Of The Shrew, Reflections In A Golden Eye and The Comedians!

Elizabeth Taylor deservedly won an Oscar for her performance. Gordon Bau was responsible for Elizabeth's makeup.
