Richard Burton won a 1968 Bambi Award for Best Actor - International for the film "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" (1966). The Bambi (Bambi Awards) is stylized after the deer Bambi and each award is presented annually by Hubert Burda Media. It is given to recognize excellence in international media and television and is awarded to personalities in the media, arts, culture, sports and other fields.

In "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" on a serene New England campus, emasculated professor George (Richard Burton) and his rancorous wife, Martha (Elizabeth Taylor), turn an evening of cocktails into an unrelenting onslaught of wrenching disclosures and bellowed epithets. Soon, the couple's guests -- junior professor Nick (George Segal) and his wife, Honey (Sandy Dennis) -- get sucked into the vortex of the warring duo's unbounded fury. The torment and horrors that people subject each other to, in the name of love and a sense of obligation, are made obvious and prominent in the film.
