...actuality of Egyptian history, Cleopatra was never so violet-eyed and opulently creamy. In American popular culture, just emerging from the Eisenhower '50s, such gaudy shamelessness was still a surprise. Taylor evicted her husband Eddie Fisher, and Burton cashiered his wife Sybil. The Queen of the Nile and the Prince of Denmark fell into each other's boozy, lascivious arms and set off on a saga of extravagant narcissism that became a celebrity contribution to '60s excess--except that it had no redeeming social value.

Without ever actually mentioning the penis, or at least without ever referring to any scientific terminology, innuendoes abound. The cast features a drag queen whose boss is a woman playing a man who is continuously aroused. This drag queen is essentially the secretary of her king, a woman playing a man who has the body of a woman, insuring that the penis of the king (a wrestler) is up and running at appropriate moments. One hysterical sequence involves the drag queen (who puts most formal-goers to shame with her swanky leggy machinations on stage) requesting that the town...
