Cleopatra (1963)Fox
June 12, 1963
Historical Drama
DVD
D+
At least the '30s version got Cleo onscreen relatively quickly. This version spends five minutes on the overture and then opening credits, followed by a heck of a lot of Julius Caesar (Rex Harrison). So ironically, I can't tag Elizabeth Taylor or anyone else who shows up after the first quarter-hour. Joseph L. Mankiewicz directed, and this is based on various books.
