Great thread. I remember James Dean and Eartha Kitt were good friends. He often took her on drives with him. During the making of the film Giant, Elizabeth Taylor loved him so much, that when he was killed in an automobile accident(in an interview with Gig Young, he had made an impromptu public appeal to people about dangerous driving. "The life you save may be mine," he said)she had her back turned to the camera because she was in tears. The scene where he is alone in a dark auditorium and he is yelling out his name was the last scene he did. His voice was dubbed by actor Nick Adams. Sylvester Stallone and Pele was in the film Victory, along with actors Michael Caine and Max Von Sydow(Pele was at the top of his game when he played for the New York Cosmos and Sylvester Stallone was riding high with Rocky). Marilyn Monroe had always loved New York City life as opposed to Hollywood. She loved the cultural side of the Big Apple. So it was not unusual for her to meet people of different races and cultures. Jimi Hendrix and Michelle Phillips and Mama Cass Elliott. That was a good photograph. Former First Lady Nancy Reagan and Mr. T. I remember the HBO show Not Necessarily The News(an American off shoot of the BBC's Not The Nine O'clock News), they showed the clip and the off screen male voice said,"Mr.T got what he wanted for Christmas, a white woman." This thread must stay here.
