Review of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1966) by Logan M — 26 Jan 2016
A dark, comic tragedy. Party games bring out the worst in hosts and guests, as truth is slowly revealed throughout a drunken night. Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton are perfect here as the dysfunctional husband and wife who share a hatred and a weird love for each other.
Their various interactions and pointed quips at each other are a joy to watch. Mike Nichols does a great job directing the film, his disorienting camera work helps to bring the audience into the madness of the movie.
Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf is a powerful film that deals with themes of reality and fantasy. It's a must-see.
