The Gorgeous Elizabeth Taylor While Taping Giant In 1956
Elizabeth Taylor lived an amazing life. She kicked off her acting career in the 1940s but it took a while for her to get her big break in the 1950s with Giant. The actress did not watch her films but enjoyed the memories she had making them. I haven’t seen a giant in a long time. I don’t watch old movies of myself. I don’t even look at the new me. I loved Jimmy and loved Rock. And I was the last person Jimmy was with before he died… But that was a private moment.
Hawaiian Night Fishing, 1948
What a stunning photo! Imagine how difficult it must be to go into the fire to save yourself. This is even more amazing when you consider that he used a spear. Hawaiians are traditionally known for fishing with spears. They use strong woods like koai’e, uhiuhi, o’a, and kauila. They are often 6-7 feet long and have a pointed end. The fishermen attracted fish with lights, which are made using coconut leaves wrapped around sticks. They burned nuts to help the candles last longer.
