Burton and Taylor in Divorce His/Divorce Hers in 1973 — Everett Collection
Divorce His/Divorce Hers (1973)
Nearing the end of the first of their two marriages, Taylor and Burton tried a bold experiment: A two-part TV movie that told, in part one, a husband's side of a dissolving relationship and then, in the second part, the wife's story. The Burtons had lived their private ups and downs in such a public way, it was nearly impossible to separate them from their fictional characters here. But there's a sad wistfulness to the film, and Taylor, in particular, displays a vulnerability that had all but disappeared from her work as her superstar light shone ever brighter.
