Region: Region A/1 - Number of discs: 2 - Rated: G General Audience - Run Time: 251 minutes Review: Cleopatra looks better than ever. - I read the reviews that said Cleopatra's film restoration was very good. Well, they didn't lie. It's beautiful and just as great a film as it was when it was first introduced, actually, better because of all the extra footage. I sat down to watch it and thought I would be bored half way through. To my surprise I hardly realized the time passed. I will say I watched it over two days. Certainly, no one could match Elizabeth Taylor's beauty and was the perfect pick to play the Egyptian queen. Rex Harrison was superb, as he always is and RIchard Burton, although he came off as something of a wimp, played the part well. Roddy McDowell was a great Octavian and I really enjoyed his performance. I watched the extras on the DVD and found out that he was supposed to be nominated for best performance in a supporting role, but do to a glitch was nominated instead for a starring role and didn't win. He would have almost surely won if he had be placed in the right catagory. What a shame for such a talented actor. I know I will enjoy watching this film over and over again. As usual in my reviews, I don't get too technical or rattle off the names of all the behind the scenes directors and so on, But let me say that just looking at Irene Sharaf's costume design was worth the price of the DVD. Of course the fact that Ms. Taylor was wearing them helped. You should get this film for the pure pleasure of looking at the richness of the colors and the brilliance of those who saw this an epic film even if it did cost 40 million or so to make. Review: Great movie! - Remember seeing this a long time ago and I remember how great the production and acting were. Still the same grandeur, even for today's standards! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Elizabeth Taylor, Joseph L.

Still the same grandeur, even for today's standards! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow- this restored version is wonderful. *by F***M on January 28, 2014* I have to give all the credit to this film to the original cinematographer and the TODD-AO 65mm process. Without their great initial work the restoration would not have been as good. I would say the picture is a little soft, but not really noticeable, colors are bright and even, I'm sure this is a good as anyone would have seen from the rear of the theater at the original roadshow. A highly underrated film. I watched on two different nights. I agree to long for one sitting. Its basically two movies, one before Caesar died and one after. I do think Joan Collins could have worked in this role, but Liz Taylor was still a great choice. Sorry to hear that it didn't make money till the 70's though. 38 million in 1963 ! wow. Its amazing 20th Century survived. The theory this film flopped is untrue. The Longest Day saved its bacon during production, and it did make 28 million by 1966 or so. So it really may have saved the studio in the end, I think the criticism is unjust now I've seen the film. Certainly great performances throughout. I would put it on a par with Spartacus, but not Ben Hur. Script editing would have helped if Mankewiez had had time, but he didn't so we are reduced to 4 hours, the butchered cut I've never seen and I'm glad. 3 and 1/2 hours would be better and you can see where some stuff could be cut, but I understand originally it was nearly 6 hours. Still a great film and well worth you taking the time out of your life to watch it, especially if you like history or Richard Burton. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://grenada.desertcart.com/products/3926720-cleopatra](https://grenada.desertcart.com/products/3926720-cleopatra) --- *Product available on Desertcart Grenada* *Store origin: GD* *Last updated: 2026-08-20*
