January 9 –Joseph Vogel resigns as president ofMGM and is replaced byRobert O'Brien . February 20 – The classic epic westernHow the West Was Won MGM sinceBen-Hur June 12 –Cleopatra Elizabeth Taylor ,Rex Harrison andRichard Burton , premieres at the Rivoli Theatre in New York City. Its staggering production costs nearly bankruptedTwentieth Century Fox and the adulterous affair between Taylor and Burton made the publicity even worse.Cleopatra marked the only instance that a film would be the highest-grossing film of a year while still losing money, thus establishing it as, at the time,the biggest box office disaster in cinema history . The film's terrible reception harmed the reputation of directorJoseph L. Mankiewicz , who had an esteemed career for directing classics likeA Letter to Three Wives All About Eve Julius Caesar The Barefoot Contessa Guys and Dolls Suddenly Last Summer Walter Wanger , who never worked in Hollywood or on another film again; he died five years later at the age of 74 of a heart attack. Much of the blame for the film's failures could be pointed at Taylor's super-diva personality, her health issues, her and Burton's adulterous affair, and the studio's inadequate management. It wouldn't be until two years later thatRodgers and Hammerstein 's adaptation ofThe Sound of Music one of the highest-grossing motion pictures of all time . November 7 – The comedyIt's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World all-star ensemble casts ever.[citation needed It is also the first comedy film ever directed byStanley Kramer , best known for directing serious human drama films on controversial subjects likeThe Defiant Ones Inherit the Wind Judgment at Nuremberg Guess Who's Coming to Dinner December 25 –Walt Disney 's production ofThe Sword in the Stone T.
