Wrote a 10-minute script where Elisabeth Taylor is addressing an acting class and describing her career and relationship with Richard Burton in terms of the Greek sorceress, Circe. She had power over men, turned them into animals and provided Odysseus with useful career advice when they had tired of each other. Both Taylor and Burton fit those roles quite well but they may be personalities that are not so well known today to be of interest.
It's difficult to find such figures in modern day cinema where the announcement that they are to play a major role makes it a must-see movie or think of such a cinematic power couple.
