| Gradient lenses are sunglasses that have lenses tinted from the top down, so that the top of the lens is darkest. ... They are good for driving, because they shield your eyes from overhead sunlight and allow more light through the bottom half of the lens so you can see your dashboard clearly. |
Elizabeth Taylor in The Driver's Seat (1974)
Also known as Identikit, this Italian adaptation of Muriel Spark’s 1970 novella is the holy grail for late Liz fans. Never even released in the UK, it was Taylor’s first film with no US backing, and boasts her most extraordinary – yet least seen – performance. As the disturbed Lise, flying south to Rome in search of the “perfect boyfriend”, her portrayal of a psyche fracturing against a backdrop of immense social change is remarkably true to Spark’s vision, but was met with howls of disbelief before sinking with barely a trace. A cult classic in the making, it features Andy Warhol in a dubbed cameo as an English lord.
