More of the Dame after the jump...
The classic statuesque beauty started her career at the age of 9. It wasn't until 3 years later that she made it big with the girl and her horse film "National Velvet" co-starring tiny man Mickey Rooney. MGM then basically adopted her and raised her into one of the greatest starlets of all time putting her in 25 films (one of which BUtterfield 8 won her an Oscar, she can thank Warner Brothers for her other one.) She had 4 children, 8 marriages, and countless affairs all the while churning out spectacular performances. It's almost as if she thrived on chaos. (see Cleopatra, it utterly mirrored her actual life.)
Elizabeth was like her perfumes; an eclectic mix of elements (beauty, materialism, class, addiction, passion, humanity, and talent) to create something quite nice that will linger until the end of human history.
She will be greatly missed and remembered (most especially by drag queens.) See you on the other side gorgeous.
