WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF?
March 9, 2017  | By David Bianculli

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

This 1966 drama is being presented tonight as part of TCM’s month-long salute to Richard Burton – but there are two other compelling reasons to watch this 51-year-old movie all over again (or, certainly, for the first time). One is for the ferocious, take-no-prisoners performance by Elizabeth Taylor. The other is for a young stage director, and former comic, making his feature film debut as a director: Mike Nichols. The very next film he made, the next year, was a little movie called The Graduate.
