Even though their schedule and long lunches could try director Mike Nichols' patience daily, Dame Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton always worked hard when they were in front of the camera to deliver the powerful performances that were expected of them. The studio, however, wasn't as understanding. "Mike ended up being thirty days over schedule and doubling the budget", said editor Sam O'Steen. "The studio thought about kicking Mike off the movie. They tried, but they knew if they fired Mike, the Burtons would both walk."
