The 1963 American epic historical drama Cleopatra chronicles the struggles of Cleopatra VII (Elizabeth Taylor), the young Queen of Egypt, to resist the imperial ambitions of Rome. The film was directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz, with a screenplay adapted by Mankiewicz, Ranald MacDougall and Sidney Buchman from a book by Carlo Maria Franzero. Cleopatra also stars Richard Burton as Mark Antony, Rex Harrison as Julius Caesar, Roddy McDowall as Octavian – Caesar Augustus, and Martin Landau as Rufio.
Cleopatra achieved notoriety during its production for its massive cost overruns and production troubles, which included changes in director and cast, a change of filming locale, sets that had to be constructed twice, lack of a firm shooting script, and personal scandal around co-stars Taylor and Burton. Cleopatra was the most expensive movie ever made up to that point in history and almost bankrupted producer 20th Century-Fox.
