Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor were Hollywood’s It couple for over a decade. They fell in love on the set of Cleopatra in 1963, and married and divorced twice. Burton wrote this letter to Taylor during the early part of their first marriage in 1964:
理查德·波顿和伊丽莎白·泰勒这对夫妇曾叱咤好莱坞十余载。1963年在拍摄《埃及艳后》时，他们两人坠入爱河，之后经历过两次离离合合。1964年，波顿在他们第一次婚姻之初给泰勒写道：
“My blind eyes are desperately waiting for the sight of you. You don’t realize of course, E.B., how fascinatingly beautiful you have always been, and how strangely you have acquired an added and special and dangerous loveliness.”
“我目不见物，只愿再看到你。当然，你无法感受得到，伊丽莎白，你是多么地有魅力，你的可爱是多么地危险。”
