伊丽莎白·泰勒一直被看做是美国电影史上最具有好莱坞色彩的人物，惯有“好莱坞常青树”和“世界头号美人”之称，尤其以一双漂亮的蓝紫色眼睛(violet eyes)闻名于世。由童星成长起来的她貌美如花，她可以清纯，可以高雅，也可以妖艳，她的魅力、演技使她夺得3次奥斯卡奖，曾经的放纵，也使她显得肥胖和衰老。她的美貌、她的电影、她的丈夫……使得半个多世纪以来的她始终是媒体追逐的目标。她仿佛是浓缩了的好莱坞样本：艺术、美貌、金钱、爱情和注定要失败的婚姻。2000年被英国女王授予爵士勋章，表彰她对电影事业作出的非凡贡献。目前，她投身于慈善事业，致力于防治艾滋病的公益事业。
伊丽莎白·泰勒是真正的影星：紫罗兰颜色的眼睛光彩照人，充满活力。尽管她不是最有天赋的演员，她却是最迷人的演员，她无与伦比的魅力永远是焦点所在。很少有人能够如此受到爱慕，同时又如此成为奚落的对象和影射与闲言碎语的标地。在她身后，无数人声名鹊起，又归于孤寂，而泰勒的魅力却长久不衰。名利是她活力的源泉，公众目光是她永远的侍从。她从不知适可而止，对她来说，要么万人之上，要么一文不名。相对媒体而言，泰勒的成功(两获奥斯卡金像奖，一获奥斯卡人道主义奖，第一个薪水百万美元的演员，众多的慈善工作)、失败(健康、体重、 药品治疗及其他的悲剧)抑或是难堪(八次失败的婚姻，电影灾难，无数的丑闻)，都已经不仅仅是她一个人的事情了。
