Summary: Laura Reynolds (Elizabeth Taylor) is a free spirit, living in rustic Bohemian splendor in an oceanfront Big Sur home. Minister Edward Hewitt (Richard Burton), a school headmaster, lives a life as constrained as his clerical collar. Now his world is changing. Blessed with a devoted wife (Eva Marie Saint), he must come to terms with his love for another woman. Any guess who she is?

Love was in the air. So was music in the form of 1965's Oscar-winning Best Song "The Shadow of Your Smile." And fans were at theaters, eger to witness on screen the charismatic chemistry that made Taylor and Burton the decate's most scrutinized off-screen couple. Academy Award winner Vincente Minnelli (Gigi, An American in Paris) direts this bittersweet tale that was wne of its year's top box-office hits.
