Elizabeth Taylor And Eddie Fisher Unguarded Moment

Life in a fishbowl is not a happy place, as these pictures taken by an unseen photographer show. It is certainly not a spot in which a precious piece of privacy can be found. As Liz and Eddie walked in the vast dining room at Grossinger’s, all eyes turned to watch them be seated. A few guests even went out of their way to walk by their table to get a closer look at them. Liz seemed reserved, correct, outwardly calm, but a passing waitress noticed and commented later, “Her eye makeup was too heavy.” Eddie chatted amiably, effected a certain nonchalance, but he puffed on his cigarette nervously. It was the end of what they had hoped would have been a perfect weekend at Grossinger’s, the famous Catskills resort, where they made headlines before their marriage. They had returned for a short holiday. Jennie Grossinger provided her own cottage. Someone noticed she had discreetly taken down the picture of Debbie and Eddie. Liz had romped with her two dogs. She refused all interviews, and photographers and reporters were kept away. While Liz seemed to be having a good time, some of the guests said they thought she seemed self-conscious. Looking at her here: Can you blame her?
