A delicious soapy and trashy melodrama about a bad-girl model who’ll sleep with any man that strikes her fancy, Butterfield 8 has ‘guilty pleasure’ scrawled across it in bright pink lipstick. It tells the story of a model/good-time girl Gloria, the married man she has an affair with, and her journey from damaged goods to trying to be a morally responsible person.

Description: A woman who has long been short on feelings falls in love with a married man in this emotional drama.

" Director: Daniel Mann His 9th movie My 3rd movie watched from the director Elizabeth Taylor turns in one of her more memorable roles in this sort-of soap opera wanting to be edgy.

I like the cinematography and the ending was a fresh surprise. Added to Lists: Top Ten Performances - Elizabeth Taylor __________ Location: Manhattan"
