Elizabeth Taylor - "A Few Words 2"
Uploaded by: richardbassett1956
Video Description:
I have included some memorable interview clips with Dame Elizabeth Taylor as a guest from the period of circa 1986 through 2006. Please enjoy this series of short interviews as Elizabeth searches her soul and touches upon her personal history, her self image and self esteem, her loved ones and family and always AIDS. She reviews her own personal timeline regarding her battles with AIDS Fundraising and making certain that important people listened. There is a shy quality that we see, far from the zealous characters she has portrayed onscreen. Elizabeth Taylor talks openly and honestly in detailing some of the difficulties that she has survived in life. She is a true survivor in every sense of the word. Upon watching these clips myself, I fell in love with her all over again. She definitely leaves her ego at the front door as she approaches some deep subject matter all in an effort to allow us to know and understand the real Elizabeth Taylor, and not the Elizabeth Taylor we read about in the tabloids. Her honest is refreshing and it suits her so well. Again, enjoy the upcoming, "A Few Words" clips.
In a "Few Words", part 2, Dame Elizabeth touches upon her relationship with Montgomery Clift and how she never took acting seriously until filming, "A Place in The Sun" in 1949 with him as her guide. She admits that Montgomery was her closest friend and that the name, "Bessie Mae' was given to her from him to and the special meaning that it has to her. Elizabeth talks about growing up in the 1980's, overcoming shyness and how it was imperative to overcome this to increase her self esteem. She talks about marriage at 18 and how she survived the peaks and valleys of her life. But the message that springs forth is that she is a true survivor of life, and only feels responsible in answering to those in her life that matter to her. Certainly not the press.
In viewing these short film clips, please donate to the cause that has become Dame Elizabeth Taylor's life mission for over two decades. The eradication of AIDS in the world. Until such time, "The Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation" funds programs and organization that give direct care to the population of millions affected with HIV/AIDS...whether it is direct care or related/ associated services. So many people are now living longer with AIDS/HIV due to advances in viral medication technology, but the impact of living a life with AIDS is far reaching. AIDS affects all of us, in one way or another. Generations of young people are not conscious of the 1980's. The face of AIDS has changed since the time when those who were ill were visibly stigmatized, akin to being lepers. Now, those with HIV/AIDS live life among the general population attempting to cope with the disease. Sometimes, silently. Emotionally, the impact is just the same as those first diagnosed. Fear. The only solution is to rid the world of this disease, therefore opening a technological highway aimed to ignite the remedy to so many other diseases as well.
Any amount of time or money will push this development ahead, not behind...never behind!
Thank you, Richard Bassett

| Yes but Elizabeth always tended to her in her later years. I think despite the whole "Stage mother" thing, there was a very deep love between them. she talks more about her mother than any father figure growing up. |
