Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

June 24, 2011
7:00 P.M.

On a serene New England campus, emasculated professor (Richard Burton) and his rancorous wife, Martha, (Elizabeth Taylor), turn an evening of cocktails into an unrelenting onslaught of wrenching disclosures and bellowed epithets. Soon, the couple's guests--junior professor Nick (George Segal) and his wife, Honey (Sandy Dennis)--get sucked into the vortex of the warring duo's unbounded fury. Taylor won an Oscar for her role--as did Sandy Dennis. The film won 5 Oscars in all.
