It must rank as one of the most expensive and pretentious loads of garbage ever foisted upon an adoring public.

Rating: D --
A star vehicle for Liz Taylor and Richard Burton, The Sandpiper is one of Minnelli's most embarrassing films, which is poorly scripted (by Dalton Trumbo), helmed, and acted and doesn't even qualify as high camp.

The Sandpiper's absurd situations are matched by dialogue that beauty (hers) and talent (his) cannot vanquish.
