Watchability: 4
This is a classic tragedy to watch once or twice. The plot wasn't necessarily unpredictable as a modern viewer but can be appreciated for what it was and is engaging due to the stellar cast performances. Elizabeth Taylor is scene-stealingly beautiful.
Family Guy: 1
While Chris does have a great nod to Elizabeth Taylor, it's to her current self rather than during this filming.

*****SPOILER ALERT*****
It happens.
People get falsely accused and die for it. This film is more relevant in today's debate over capital punishment than it was when it was made.
