The actors talk about playing Hollywood's most star-crossed lovers, Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor
"Well, there's no point in trying to look like her, is there?" Helena Bonham Carter says, as she twiddles her monstrous fake £1m diamond ring. "And if you do try, you're just going to be perpetually disappointed."
"On no," Dominic West says. "Pointless. The thing we had going for us is, we're playing them when they're not in their prime. And we're younger than they were at the time."
Bonham Carter and West are playing the ultimate celebrity couple, Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, in a new BBC4 film. It wasn't simply their level of celebrity that made them special; it was the scale of their lives. Both actors dealt only in superlatives raised to the power of X.

Happy Halloween !
Here Lies... bits and pieces of thieves and murderers all stitched together to form the Robert DeNiro version of Frankenstein's Monster.
Yes, we close this year's season of "Oscar Horrors" by celebrating the gruesome Oscar-nominated makeup in...(deep breath)... Columbia Tri-Star Picture's Kenneth Branagh's Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (1994) . So many possessives! And the film, if I remember it correctly, is possessed. Kenneth Branagh has never been a wallflower as a director and his version of Frankenstein has the exuberant gonzo abandon (i.e. shameless confidence) that also characterized his far more artistically successful reincarnation noir Dead Again (1991).
The makeup designs by Daniel Parker, Paul Engelen and Carol Hemming won Oscar's attention but the team lost to a black and white celebration of a more infamous gonzo director, Ed Wood.
