The turbulent union of actors Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor that set gossip columns aflame are the subjects of “The Motive and the Cue,” a play that is being broadcast in cinemas in Britain and internationally starting Thursday as part of the National Theatre Live series. The play looks at a famous 1964 production of “Hamlet” that starred Burton and was directed by John Gielgud. Mark Gatiss plays Gielgud in the witty and moving look at fame's fickleness and cost.
