Hi everybody!
I have another question. Was Richard Burton an actor difficult to
direct? I mean, I was watching The Sandpiper the other day and well,
there were certain scenes he could have done a bit better. I believe
many people consider Vincente Minelli a good director; if so, why
couldn't he tell Burton about some details? Was Burton whimsical,
stubborn, "hysterical", etc.? Because in other films he was really
good! Thanks in advance!
PS. How do you say "Happy Birthday" in Welsh?

Thank you! I'll see if I can watch any of those two films you mention with Eva Marie Saint - to see her really acting. In "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?"...
