In this video, I revisit "Liz and Dick," a Lifetime Original Movie referred to in The Guardian as the "first movie to be explicitly marketed around the disastrous life of its own star, making it an indictment of contemporary celebrity as funny as it is upsetting.” I take a look at why it was made, what it promised to do for Lohan, how it frames Elizabeth Taylor, and how it holds up under scrutiny.
