In December 1949, 17 year old Elizabeth Taylor said yes to Nicholas Hilton's proposal. Three weeks later, she started a film dealing with a wedding. "Father of The Bride" was one of the most popular movies of the 1950's and still is. After graduation from high school, in later January 1950, she and Nicholas announced their real life engagement to the world. For the next several months, life for Elizabeth consisted of playing a bride to be and actually being a bride to be. MGM Studio's paid for Elizabeth's entire 800 guests wedding. The real life wedding certainly was good publicity for, "Father of The Bride". It is a must see. On May 6, 1950...Elizabeth married Nicky Hilton. One month later, the film was released. Elizabeth Taylor learned to be a bride in every sense of the word.
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
