    The fact that Liz managed to carry on with filming despite being newly widowed is truly remarkable. She made some mistakes in her personal life, especially with being labeled as a home wrecker. But she was a good human being above all and a good activist. A very good tribute from Paul. Since he too has since passed on, I hope someone will do a tribute on him too; he was a fine actor.

    I suppose it's moot to mention it now but Richard didn't think of her that way, maybe his wife did but, it wasn't what she was aiming for nor with Eddie. Liz didn't ask Eddie to buy her a house, he just did. Liz didn't ask Richard to buy her that diamond, he wanted to. He said he was gonna do it and he did. Getting involved with married men wasn't her fault in my opinion. The only one I might take her to task on that was with Richard because she was still married to Eddie. Debbie and little Carrie were hurt for a while but they got over it and were good friends before they all passed away.

    Today her short appearance in Jane Eyre (1943) seems to have caught a lot of attention. She basically steals the movie from Peggy Ann Garner. When Helen Burns tells Jane, " It's wrong to hate to people.", it's not just the character talking, Taylor really believed that. Her AIDS advocacy later on proved it to the world.

    I’ve always loved classic movies. Before there was cable TV, videos or DVDs, or movies on demand, I would get so excited when a classic film came on television, usually very late at night. I remember my mother telling me “Jane Eyre” was coming on, the one with Joan Fontaine and Orson Welles. I had read the book. When I saw a very young Elizabeth Taylor in the movie, I instantly recognized her from other movies in which she had been much older. She took my breath away, the most beautiful child I had ever seen, and she stayed beautiful her entire life. Just watched “National Velvet” yesterday.

This woman kept saying how beautiful Taylor was and I asked if she had ever seen Jane Eyre with a very young Taylor. She said oh yes, but look at these photos of her before she had done any movies...the magazine had family photos of Taylor as a baby, a toddler, a kid in school, photos I had never seen anywhere. She was STUNNING as an infant, a little girl. Remarkable beauty, absolutely lovely. When she was older and gained some weight an interviewer said something about potatoes...and in a flash, Taylor said, "I LIKE potatoes and I'll eat potatoes if I want." or words to that effect.

As if the husbands are completely inncoent, NOT. She attracted sleaze bags because of her looks. From a young age she was controlled by the studio. Her first marriage was at 18 and it was set up by the studios and her parents. Her husband ended up abusing her.

    She was about 25 or 26 when she did "Cat On A Hot Tin Roof" and for the next 4 years in a row was nominated for BEST ACTRESS. She was a PRO, a Beauty, and an ICON.. I could NEVER take my eyes off her when she was on the screen, or stage. More than an actress, she was a caregiver. Without her, AIDS would not have had the attention she gave and brought it. Remember, at the time everyone was panicked by AIDS, we had a President that wouldn't even mention the word ! God bless her for ALL she did. She was so much more than an actress !!! 💙

    I remember coming out of Bloomingdale's in Manhattan late one evening and accidentally bumping into this man in my clumsiness. As I looked up at him to say excuse me I was absolutely frozen in my tracks as I was face to face with what had to be the most incredible pair of blue eyes I have ever seen in my entire life. The man was none other than Paul Newman who was out with his wife Joanne Woodward for a evening stroll. He obviously was used to getting this kind of reaction from people as it didn't faze him that I was completely mesmerized by the color of his eyes as he asked me "Are you ok?" I felt as if I should be asking him that question but he was very low key about the whole thing and after asking me his question smiled and wished me a good night and continued on his stroll with his wife. I have never forgotten that evening and how they both just came across as two ordinary unassuming folks despite both being big stars.

    Not many women could earn the love, respect and friendship of their daughter in law after running off with her mother's husband and breaking up their family. But Carrie fisher (god bless her soul, another amazingly talented actress and writer) stated that she came to understand and love Taylor in a very different way to her mother. Speaks volumes of both women.
