Cleopatra (1963) is a grand and lavish cinematic endeavor that cost a staggering $60 million, making it an epic undertaking in terms of investment, Hollywood lore, and ultimately, a monumental box office disappointment that nearly sank 20th Century Fox. The film chronicles the rise and fall of the legendary Egyptian queen, Cleopatra. Despite its financial struggles, the movie garnered four Academy Awards. This sweeping narrative of passion, ambition, and betrayal features Elizabeth Taylor as the formidable and driven queen who seeks to maintain her rule and ensnares the Roman leader Julius Caesar. Following Caesar's assassination, Cleopatra shifts her focus to his general, Mark Antony, who pledges to seize power, only to face opposition from Caesar's heir.
