AKA Dr. Faustus
Faustus (Richard Burton) is a scholar studying for his doctorate, and his insatiable appetite for knowledge and power takes him down the dark path of necromancy. He uses his knowledge to summon up Mephistopheles (Andreas Teuber) and bargains his soul away to be able to live twenty-four more years.
A basic re-write of the Marlowe play, with some cameo appearances of Elizabeth Taylor to try and liven up proceedings.
