I was watching: "Elizabeth Taylor: The Lost Tapes(2024) which is a documentary containing picture and videos of her life

I had heard before as a child that she had been married to Mike Todd before but I hadn't remembered how he had died. I had thought he died in a hot air balloon but obviously I was wrong. His plane actually crashed in New Mexico just after the birth of their daughter I believe while she was making the movie "Cat on a hot Tin Roof" two weeks into the shooting. So, she was pretty messed up from his death and often called Mike "The Love of Her Life". Mike died in 1958 when I was 10 years old which is why I don't remember the details better. I was always interested in Elizabeth Taylor with her Violet eyes and Marilyn Monroe with her Blonde Hair and blue eyes and sultry voice. In fact, they each had very amazing voices that a man or boy could easily "Fall into" then.  But, it was a completely different era and people thought much differently about literally everything than they do now. another world.

I was born just before 1950 and so I can likely easily say that every 20 to 50 years the world changes so much both the way people use words that even the same words they use often have completely different meanings 20 to 50 years later.

A perfect example this is the late 1960s and early 1970s. People often think every young person was a hippy. This isn't really true. Some young people were hippies and then there were all sort of other variations like Jesus Freak Hippies and California Hippies and Los Angeles Hippies and San Francisco Hippies and Flower children hippies and back to the land Hippies.

So, often people get it very wrong about what life was like in the late 1960s or early 1970s. For example, soldiers on leave from Viet Nam would actually buy wigs and dress like hippies so they didn't stand out at rock concerts and they would grow stubble or beards too or mustaches to fit in as well. So many things were different than people think. For example, some of the people ever since they got back from Viet Nam wear long hair or beards still even after all these years later because they didn't like having everything shaved off (hair and beards in Viet Nam).
