In Toronto in the early 1960s I got on a hotel elevator with Liz Taylor and
Richard Burton (he was doing Hamlet onstage at the time). I was stunned
into speechlessness not only by their seemingly miraculous presence but
also by
(a) how short they both were, and (b) how large their heads seemed to be in
proportion to their bodies. This second quality may be something that
(cinematic) anthropologists can speculate about.
