From child prodigy to global icon, and from lavish studio epics to intimate, emotionally daring performances, Taylor’s career is a masterclass in range, risk, and reinvention. This year-long retrospective celebrates the full sweep of her work—the wit, the bruised vulnerability, and the unapologetic intelligence that make her one of cinema’s most enduring stars. Whether you’re revisiting beloved classics or discovering lesser known but worthy titles, these films reveal an artist always more daring—and more surprising—than her glamorous image.Join us one Saturday each month at 6 PM for a big-screen celebration at the Historic Camelot Theatre at the Palm Springs Cultural Center. Each screening is preceded by a 5 PM pre-show featuring vintage film ephemera from the year of the film’s release. The series is hosted and introduced by author and film historian Matthew Kennedy (On Elizabeth Taylor: An Opinionated Guide). Copies of the book will be available for purchase and signing at the screenings, courtesy of Best Bookstore Palm Springs.Rediscover Elizabeth Taylor as she was meant to be seen—on the big screen. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/4409d930-137a-11f1-acee-258006aecb7a-rimg-w493-h740-dcf1f1f0-gmir.jpg The Last Time I Saw Paris (1954) Director: Richard BrooksStarring: Elizabeth Taylor, Van Johnson, Walter Pidgeon, Donna ReedSet among postwar expatriates in Paris, the film traces a turbulent romance shaped by ambition, disappointment, and emotional immaturity. What begins as youthful promise slowly curdles into regret, as love collides with pride and missed chances.For Taylor, this is a bridge between ingénue roles and more complex adult dramas. She brings bite and melancholy to a character who refuses to be merely decorative, signaling her growing interest in emotionally complicated women rather than simple romantics. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/444ad9d0-137a-11f1-acee-258006aecb7a-rimg-w740-h740-dc5e5f61-gmir.jpg MATTHEW KENNEDY is a Film historian and author and the former curator and host of the film series at the Mechanics Institute Library in San Francisco.
