Reflections in a Golden Eye & Secret Ceremony
from Rotten Rewind · host rotten rewind
On this week's double feature, we're taking on a pair of 1960's psychosexual thrillers featuring Elizabeth Taylor in the prime of her career. First up, it's the aforementioned "Reflections of a Golden Eye" featuring a pre-Godfather Marlo Brando as a repressed army captain who's being publicly cucked by his horny wife (Taylor) as he quietly longs for the mysterious new cadet riding riding horses naked on the base (a very young Robert Forster). After that, it's Joseph Losey's 1968 tale of two freaky women using each other to overcome their individual grief with "Secret Ceremony." Featuring Taylor alongside Mia Farrow and Robert Mitchum at his absolute filthiest, "Ceremony" was akin to a modern day A24 horror movie at the time, written off as another pseudo-horror film operating under a "Psycho" facade. Join us as we travel back the Hollywood in the late 60's for a pair of freaky Elizabeth Taylor thrillers from two Hollywood legends.
