Lindsay Lohan's performance as Elizabeth Taylor in the upcoming Lifetime movie Liz and Dick has already gotten at least one rave review.

"She's pretty much Elizabeth Taylor reincarnated," says her costar Grant Bowler, who plays Taylor's on-again-off-again husband, Richard Burton, in the clip above. The actor adds that Lohan was "excellent to work with" on the film.

For her part, the often-troubled starlet says that she can identify with the late Taylor. "I relate to her on a lot of levels," says Lohan. "Living in the public eye, dealing with the stress of what other people say, whether it's true or not."

The stars also share a love of diamonds, Lohan adds, not to mention striking physical similarities in the film. (See the trailer here.)

Liz and Dick will air on Lifetime in November.
