A friend and neighbor of mine was an intimate friend of Rock Hudson, and the three of us had lunch at that friend's apartment, a couple floors down from mine, in the early 80s. Rock was a lovely person, very approachable, with an easy sense of humor, and slightly shy or withdrawn. I liked him very much. Of all the people I met and knew in Hollywood, he was one of the LEAST impressed with himself. He would have been saddened to see this circus play out, where his former lover went after the estate. He had removed the man from his will for a reason, and that should have been respected.
@@Juliet475exactly, he went to his grave never fully accepting who he was; forget about what the media wanted, he should’ve at least come clean with/to himself, that’s not very honorable in my eyes.
Rock's so-called close friends went to Rock in his room to ask what money they will get who needs enemies when you have so called friends like that !wow hangers-on there's alot in Hollywood well over over the world!! 😮
I was very touched by how Elizabeth Taylor publicly supported Rock Hudson, at a time when most people wouldn’t even shake hands with a person with AIDS.
She really supported the Aids & homosexual community & brought attention to the cause. She arranged massive fund raisers for awareness, research & assistance to sufferers.
@@alidabotes6264I read somewhere a while ago that she (Elizabeth Taylor) also put some of her own personal antique jewellery collection up for charity auction too.(for AIDS research) After all who wouldn't want a piece of history like that.
Elizabeth Taylor did so much for the Aids cause ...and most young Gen Z generation have no idea even who she is....that's the truth. I've ask them...they don't have a clue...til u tell them. Unbelievable.
I Doubt That When Reading 📖 Bible Scriptures Man Doesn’t Lay With Man and Woman Doesn’t Lay With Woman It’s An Abomination and I Doubt He Never 👎🏿 Repented Of His Sins He Keep His Lifestyle Because He Enjoyed It , and That’s , That’s 👋
I'm still watching McMillan and Wife 50+ years on and the wonderful gentle humour of the films Rock Hudson made with Doris Day. Sad that you often find out who your real friends are when you need them/their support the most. Something I noticed in his films but most in McMillan and Wife - he had the most wonderful and genuine smile and sense of humour. RIP Rock Hudson
Rock still should have told his lover or lovers he had AIDS . With all respect Rock was wrong for that despite how well liked he may have been. That speaks volumes about him as well
That was a pretty terrible thing to do, he was a selfish coward for that. You can understand his predicament more than Charlie Sheen but it’s no less despicable.
I remember this very well. I'm 67. What stands out to me is that a lot of the people Rock acted with had no idea of his diagnosis and were terrified becuase some of the scenes involved intimacy.
At the very beginning not a lot was known about it. Somewhere between 1972 and 73 I was living with my Mom's cousin and her son, he was a closet homosexual, and there was a man, friends of them, he was nicer to me than my relatives, reason I moved out soon. Anyway, he was in the hospital, very sick, but nobody knew what was wrong. Like I said, early 1970's. Later on when AIDS became so talked about it, I realized GEEZ, He had AIDS, one early victim. On the other hand, my relative, not sure if they were just friends or intimate involved, lived until late 1990's.
I remember the Dynasty scene with Linda Evans making headlines because they had kissed. That was all over the news because people were talking about Rock Hudson not telling anyone he had AIDS at the time of intimate scene with Linda Evans.
My number 1 idol will always be Rock Hudson, no matter what others said about him. I wrote him a letter in 1965 and one of his secretaries, Lois Rupert replied to me on his behalf. She said Rock Hudson was on location in Mexico at that time. I treasured that letter for many years till it got lost.
Doris Day had nothing but the highest praise for the kind politeness of Rock. She co-starred with him on several movies 🎥 Pillow Talk and Send me no flowers, just to name a couple.
It doesn't make any sense. Marc asked for 300,000, and Susan said they offered 50,000 a month for the rest of his life (any fool would take the latter's deal). Susan's math doesn't add up!!!
@@josephinejoseph8837 I agree! But then I think the 300.000 came from Marc's lover (who would believe anything Marc told him), whereas the 50.000 came from Hundson's secretary.
PILLOW TALK is my GO-TO movie when I am feeling down...which happens at regular intervals. Thelma Ritter deserves some accolades for this great film as well as Doris and Rock
Sounds like Rock wanted to end the relationship with with Marc but hadn't the guts to throw him out, leaving Marc to think they were still together. But it also is clear that Rock knew he could have infected "the kid" but deliberately hid that knowledge.
@queenofthebutterflies5212 he was likely infected long before the boy toy. That skin cancer is not an early sign but a later stage symptom. My college housemate was diagnosed when he came down w pneumonia. He knew how many years back he was infected while serving in the Israeli military.😢
Well look what we just went through with covid. How many people didn't care about passing that around and it killed plenty of people. Ever thought about that?
I don't see how their relationship ending before he was diagnosed has any bearing on it. Rock doesn't know when he got it, so he could have passed it on to him. Your reputation is based on your behavior - I hate it when someone says something will ruin their reputation. Well, if they actually did it, it needs to be a part of their reputation!!!!
Filed a lawsuit claiming they deserve someone else’s lifelong earnings to be theirs cause they were deliberately, maliciously & dangerously kept in the dark about this secret, their choice to live taken from them…. Just also happens to be the same & only person who repeatedly & unapologetically refused to leave the house, couldn’t even be paid to leave, while those who cared for Rock spent their final weeks with him wearing masks, gloves & saying their goodbyes from a 40Ft distance….

It's so Obvious Rock Hudson was throwing his legs high in the air the week he first went to California and never stopped...he's lucky he lived as long as he did considering.
He was the one bending the men over. He was a TOP. It was in recordings with his wife. She recording their conversations and said “How come you are so fast with me in bed? Is that how it is when you are with men? And Rock said : “No i last longer with men because it doesn’t fit… with you it fits” When you do that type of $3x act there can be tearing and bleeding. That part of the body wasn’t made for that. It doesn’t stretch like a woman’s part. It doesn’t self lubericate like a woman’s part. So if Rock is the one bending men over and there is a tear and some bleeding that’s how he would contract it from being the partner who inserts it 🍆 inside.
I liked Rock Hudson but l do remember him the first actor being diagnosed with AIDS l thought he had cancer when l think he was on Dallas . I was young and remember telling my mom he looked like he was sick
Absolutely, Rock should have informed Mark and any other lovers of his condition. They needed to know and be tested. Vile and deceitful to put others at danger.
I will always love Rock Hudson. Rest in peace darling.. He deserved his right to privacy and his right to not share it with the whole world at that time. He was truly loved by so many. As for Marc Christianson I'd say yes he has a right to know but it sounds like they stopped intimate relations between and with that being the case Marc Christensen did not have the right to know or to win the law suit.
It's not like people got contagious the very day they became sick enough to see a doctor. A friend of mine was completely healthy for a year or more after he was infected by a former lover. Thank goodness, the first drugs had been developed by then, so he lived for 20+ years after he was diagnosed.
He called his wife Bunting as a mickname. It's a baseball term. It means hitting the ball gently so it doesn't go flying. It's an unexpected move that you use when you're stuck and don't know what else to do.
I’m sorry but Rock himself, his friends and legal team here are not in their right mind……it was absolutely wrong to not tell that man he had AIDS!!!! They can talk about his past and activities all they want, it doesn’t change facts ….rocks team , employees etc tried to hush him up and attack his character……who cares if he wrote a screenplay…. or had other lovers, rock did too 🧐 I’m glad he won….rock was dead wrong for not disclosing his status
I believe he asked his circle of friends, colleagues and family not to tell Marc…because HE (Rock), wanted to tell him. Then couldn’t bring himself to???? It didn’t sound sinister, but it is a deadly virus. You HAVE to disclose! Didn’t California revoke the legislation mentioned here, or legislate against informing your partner several years back? It’s unimaginable to me how CA could backslide on such an important issue.
I agree. What goes on between two consenting adults in private is no-one else's business. Ignoring the potential to knowingly or recklessly expose your partner to a devastating and incurable disease means the 'consenting adults' bit is not in play.
And don’t forget Linda Evans, she French kissed with Rock Hudson on Dynasty when he already knew he had AIDS. As the young guy’s lawyer said, he had a duty to warn
Im sorry Rock should have told him he had Aids. Thats a law sue. He should have got some compensation. I loved all Rocks movies, im sorry he went through that...fair is fair.
Mark Christian had every right not to leave ! He was betrayed in the highest degree. Susan and all the other sychophants are awful. Money hungry leeches who wanted to be on the will. Mark was on the hustle but he didnt know Rock had aids! Thats awful ! I dont blame him for being angry.
I always thought he was fabulous in those Doris Day comedies. If you read 'Bombshell' by Mike Rothmiller on the death of Marilyn Monroe, as well as Fred Otash's wiretaps on Marilyn with the Kennedys, he also recorded an argument between Rock & his wife re her discovering his real sexuality. Fred worked for both the FBI, CIA & the Mafia , he didnt care, as long as the money was right & he had dirt on many huge stars, not just Marilyn & Bobby & Jack. Hoover especially, at the time, was obsessed with the Kennedys & Hollywood stars: & loved collecting dirt on them for possible blackmail use in the future.
I loved Rock Hudson as a actor. He was the first famous person I found out had died of Aids and sadly I remember that photo of RH near the end of his life and couldn't believe what i was seeing.The doctors didn't know a lot about Aids back in there '80's, it was scary. It's always sad to see people fight over money. It's the route of all evil, no matter if you have it or haven't got it

I don't care what he did in his private life, I loved him on screen and it was heartbreakingly sad when and how we lost him. Behind his beautiful smile lived a massive secret that would of ruined his career had it come out, it's wrong that he had to live like this, in constant fear.
It's not sinful to be LBGTQ+. It is very wrong not to tell your partner that you have or may have a fatal disease that is communicated through intimacy.
I don’t believe this woman saying she offered Marc 50k a month for life and he said no. This is the same guy who wanted 300k put in a trust for his health. She’s lying this one
Marc C did not test positive for AIDS never not once. he died in 2009. at the trial doctors said he would die in 3 years... he didn't. and when he died in 2009 the coroner's report did not say anything about AIDS or dying from exposure or complications. it was about money. Marc lost his bank. sorry but true.
I also worked with women who were devastated. It was truly sad to watch them go through all stages of grieving. I finally had a talk with one that all of it was out of her control. That helped. I was considerably younger than her.

No tests were available for blood at that time! Also it was not known at that time how GIRD/AIDS was spread. Impossible to determine whether something is present when there is no test to detect the disease or if you have NO IDEA WHERE TO LOOK! PLEASE watch or read “AND THE BAND PLAYED ON”, it will explain a lot about those times!
Rock Hudson, being in sida stage, was likely contaminated since 1982/83. At this time, he was se*ually activ with Mark Christian and contagious. And we have no idea of the kind of se*ual activities they had during their affair. So Mark Christian was really put at risk even if only during the 1983 year...
I agree. But in their defense, they are portraying him mostly when he was sick and 58 and 59, which looked older back then. He's a little before my time as far as his heyday. I was about 19 when he died. I remember how thin and sick he looked, not really his former handsome self. But yeah, the actor was off looks wise.
@BeaullahBelle-pc4em I agree with the first two you listed. Gable wasn't particularly handsome to me, but he had charm and I love GWTW. Cary was incredible.
I know many people from my time working in nursing homes that had children that never visited or called. Social workers were the ones taking care of their crucial needs like finances. I have known children to say to us not to calk them until they are died. Yes, they just wanted the money. Family sometimes isn't all what it is cracked up to be.
I am fully and wholesomely straight, yet you spit on a lifestyle such as mine. I'll let you know that I, "no permanence no family" am leagues above you and your quaint boring existence😂
@@brendakabanda2181 Sometimes the word "family" is just an empty buzzword. Otherwise many people wouldn't be so lonely. For people who are very people- and family-oriented, this is something completely alien and they can't or don't want to understand it.
I believe he loved his wife so much and couldn’t bear to hurt her that he cut himself off her completely. She needs to take comfort in. That knowledge. Dear Phillis. Bless you.
It's really horrific that he died this way and the gospel is so horrible. They should look to the government the cabal and find out who created AIDS in the first place and who give it to all the people. They should be ashamed of themselves there are so many innocent victims of their ugliness. Rest in peace Rock Hudson your fans still love you
Ummm I have to agree with the plaintiff here.. Rock put the man’s life in danger and for that he should pay for it … He didn’t try to gain any leverage he wanted to get paid for “non disclosure” and that’s it
Pillow Talk love it! I still watch McMillan and wife and still love it. It's so sad that people had to hide their true selves that's why we have so much depression and suicide 😢😢😢
Rock Hudson should have told people close to him ,which by this documentary ,he did but mr Christian and mr Hudson was know longer sexul intermittent or close , and had been asked numerous times to leave the premises,so i don't see why mr Christian had any right to mr Hudsons medical report ,as we are self had know right,to personal medical records
Marc was on Donahue with his attorney. They offered to settle for $900,000 but the insurance company declined so it went to trail. So this documentary doesn't seem truthful.
40 years ago no1 knew too much of Aids but when Rock died there was a dinner for him ❤ in California with all the stars and singers there me too😢 im his age now when he died ! He would be100 now and someone took his place ! Kaan = llgaz!
no. just read about this, he did not die from anything from aids, and never had a positive test. why is everybody thinking his test was positive: never tested positive for it.
Whenever Rock costarred with Doris Day you knew the movie was going to be magic. Send Me No Flowers, Pillow Talk, and Lover Come Back are still my favorite movies to this day. RIP to Rock Hudson always ❤
The duty to warn, as the lawyer said. I couldn’t help but to root for the young guy. Although I agree that a testament should be respected, when someone’s life is put at risk by another person, he should have every right to sue the estate. Linda Evans from Dynasty was also put at risk without being warned. They French kissed on a scene when Rock Hudson already knew he had AIDS

@@JamesLenehan-e6z, in the episode, a judge and jury decided that Rock was culpable. Did YOU watch the episode?
Absolutely right
I will always love Rock Hudson. Rest in peace darling.. He deserved his right to privacy and his right to not share it with the whole world at that time. He was truly loved by so many. As for Marc Christianson I'd say yes he has a right to know but it sounds like they stopped intimate relations between and with that being the case Marc Christensen did not have the right to know or to win the law suit.
It's not like people got contagious the very day they became sick enough to see a doctor. A friend of mine was completely healthy for a year or more after he was infected by a former lover. Thank goodness, the first drugs had been developed by then, so he lived for 20+ years after he was diagnosed.
Exactly
No. He had every right to know.
He had every right to know. What a ridiculous statement. What a selfish creep.
He called his wife Bunting as a mickname. It's a baseball term. It means hitting the ball gently so it doesn't go flying. It's an unexpected move that you use when you're stuck and don't know what else to do.
It doesn’t mean that where I come from.
You cant blame Mark Christian, he should have been told, that his life could be in danger
I’m sorry but Rock himself, his friends and legal team here are not in their right mind……it was absolutely wrong to not tell that man he had AIDS!!!! They can talk about his past and activities all they want, it doesn’t change facts ….rocks team , employees etc tried to hush him up and attack his character……who cares if he wrote a screenplay…. or had other lovers, rock did too 🧐 I’m glad he won….rock was dead wrong for not disclosing his status
So true! Rock actually lived with Marc for a long time but had the audacity not to leave him a piece of his estate.
@@sunshinehoward9649
He was diagnosed in 1984 with aids.
Look that up.
I believe he asked his circle of friends, colleagues and family not to tell Marc…because HE (Rock), wanted to tell him.
Then couldn’t bring himself to????
It didn’t sound sinister, but it is a deadly virus.
You HAVE to disclose!
Didn’t California revoke the legislation mentioned here, or legislate against informing your partner several years back?
It’s unimaginable to me how CA could backslide on such an important issue.
I agree. What goes on between two consenting adults in private is no-one else's business. Ignoring the potential to knowingly or recklessly expose your partner to a devastating and incurable disease means the 'consenting adults' bit is not in play.
And don’t forget Linda Evans, she French kissed with Rock Hudson on Dynasty when he already knew he had AIDS. As the young guy’s lawyer said, he had a duty to warn
No matter how people like Mark Christian and his lawyer tried to slander Rock, we still love him.
Let's see how you feel when someone you have a relationship with fails to disclose they have AIDS. Oh wait, no one would have a relationship with you.
Who is we? The majority of people that know the circumstances are appalled that he continued to infect others.
No we don’t
No, we don't. He was knowingly spreading Aids. Who knows how many people he has infected? He's a piece of filth.
Im sorry Rock should have told him he had Aids. Thats a law sue. He should have got some compensation.
I loved all Rocks movies, im sorry he went through that...fair is fair.
I love rock but weather sexually active with him or not he should of been told 😢
What's the weather got to do with it?! Yes, Marc should have been told.
@@Robotina-e8u HE MEANT "WHETHER"..
GEEZ🤪
So he had aids, and don't tell him, that is wrong.
Was wrong for him not tell his lover that virus was death bk then ❤
Mark Christian had every right not to leave ! He was betrayed in the highest degree. Susan and all the other sychophants are awful. Money hungry leeches who wanted to be on the will. Mark was on the hustle but he didnt know Rock had aids! Thats awful ! I dont blame him for being angry.
I always thought he was fabulous in those Doris Day comedies. If you read 'Bombshell' by Mike Rothmiller on the death of Marilyn Monroe, as well as Fred Otash's wiretaps on Marilyn with the Kennedys, he also recorded an argument between Rock & his wife re her discovering his real sexuality. Fred worked for both the FBI, CIA & the Mafia , he didnt care, as long as the money was right & he had dirt on many huge stars, not just Marilyn & Bobby & Jack. Hoover especially, at the time, was obsessed with the Kennedys & Hollywood stars: & loved collecting dirt on them for possible blackmail use in the future.
I loved Rock Hudson as a actor. He was the first famous person I found out had died of Aids and sadly I remember that photo of RH near the end of his life and couldn't believe what i was seeing.The doctors didn't know a lot about Aids back in there '80's, it was scary. It's always sad to see people fight over money. It's the route of all evil, no matter if you have it or haven't got it
So did I he was my idol I had loads of photos of him Couldn’t believe what I heard about him ❤️
Wearing a diaper with giant safety pins is "fun"? Ok...just shows you how Hollywood is effed up.
Obviously his friends found it funny. It was a very different era from today.
@@juniamcc35 his friends were all hollyhood degenerates themselves.
@@juniamcc35 Still goes to prove how effed up everyone in hollywood is.
@@juniamcc35 Nothing to do with era, but their minds.
@@chickenlover657 it has plenty to do with eras. Many things wete considered funny 100 years ago, 50-60 years ago, even 20 years ago that aren't considered funny today. Humor changes as people and society changes.
Just like taste in clothes changes.
I watched a lot of Rock Hudson movies but my favorite is 'All that Heaven Allows' with Jane Wyman. He is one of my favorite actors.
Ronald Reagan's first wife!
Im glad this mark Christian sued Rick's estate Rock should of told the guy its terrible .
Should "have" told him..
@@ME24689 Should of, is should’ve ( ’s ) country cousin 🤣🤣🤣
Rock Hudson, one of the most beautiful men who ever lived and a legend🙏💕🙏
From whom did RH contract Aids?
It’s been a long time but it seems from a Bath House
I could possibly be wrong but this will open other comments.
PLEASE DON’T DESTROY ME IF I’M WRONG !!!
From Bill Clinton.
Who cares… and does that info really matter at this point in time… NO !!
@stuartlee662🤣🤣🤣 you probably right. 😂😂😂
In the show one of the guys said he liked tall blond men. And he slept around a lot. Anyone could have given it to him. He was no angel i bet.
😮 All Our Western Way Of Life Is Under Attack...😡
Australia here...Our World is Falling Apart...
PRAY PEOPLE...We Need Divine Intervention 😢🙏
And Common Sense People in Charge🙏🏻🇬🇧🇦🇨🇮🇱🇱🇷🙏🏻
Thank you 😊.
Thank You
I don't care what he did in his private life, I loved him on screen and it was heartbreakingly sad when and how we lost him.
Behind his beautiful smile lived a massive secret that would of ruined his career had it come out, it's wrong that he had to live like this, in constant fear.
Rock Hudson use to be the most handsome Actor in Hollywood !
It’s hard to hide a sinful lifestyle. Today society openly embraces sin as normal.
It won't last long and society will swing back to normality. Nothing but money and social engineering (agenda) is behind this "embracement".
Sod+am and Gomorr-h
Yes. Horrible.
@@jessiejames7492 Y'all need to clutch your pearls elsewhere.
It's not sinful to be LBGTQ+. It is very wrong not to tell your partner that you have or may have a fatal disease that is communicated through intimacy.
This is totally shocking it was all about money it’s heart breaking ❤❤❤
I don’t believe this woman saying she offered Marc 50k a month for life and he said no.
This is the same guy who wanted 300k put in a trust for his health.
She’s lying this one
Why not let his sweet soul rest in Peace. May his memory be a blessing . He wasn’t allowed to be his true self in life ,let him rest now❣️
He will never rest
It's all about money
He confirmed to the world
Rock didn't do the right thing, he lied, he was deceptive, hid the truth from his fans
Aids is not handsome it's a death sentence
Giant is one of my all time favorite movies! 🎥
That's a great movie!
I loved Doris Day and Rock Hudson .movies as a teenager .
Me too! ❤️💜❤️💙🇦🇺
Marc C did not test positive for AIDS never not once. he died in 2009. at the trial doctors said he would die in 3 years... he didn't. and when he died in 2009 the coroner's report did not say anything about AIDS or dying from exposure or complications. it was about money. Marc lost his bank. sorry but true.
Doesn’t matter. Rock exposed him to AIDS . Therefore he needed get a compasantion
Marc died from lung cancer.
I worked with alot of older women at a factory they were shocked to find out he died frim aids
I also worked with women who were devastated. It was truly sad to watch them go through all stages of grieving. I finally had a talk with one that all of it was out of her control. That helped. I was considerably younger than her.

A great Actor. Loved his movies & admired his courage fighting AIDS. His challenges with judgment & fear took its toll on him. 😢💙
Rock is a legend
The actor that they chose for Rock Hudson in this documentary. Is horrible.
He had heart surgery early 1980’s; had blood transfusion most do. Might have gotten this from that blood given?
Why was that not checked?
No tests were available for blood at that time! Also it was not known at that time how GIRD/AIDS was spread. Impossible to determine whether something is present when there is no test to detect the disease or if you have NO IDEA WHERE TO LOOK! PLEASE watch or read “AND THE BAND PLAYED ON”, it will explain a lot about those times!
Ingenious observation, yes!
Rock Hudson, being in sida stage, was likely contaminated since 1982/83. At this time, he was se*ually activ with Mark Christian and contagious. And we have no idea of the kind of se*ual activities they had during their affair. So Mark Christian was really put at risk even if only during the 1983 year...
I loved the character RH, but those Hollywood actors apparently didnt consider the consequences of their outlandish behaviors 😊
When I think of tall, dark and handsome, I picture Rock Hudson. I think he was the most attractive man in Hollywood.
Live by the gun, die by the gun...
The actor in this looks nothing like Rock Hudson.
They didn't even try. Pretty lame.
Not even handsome... jerks. lol
I hate that they didn't even try. Not even an attractive guy. What ever!
The actor is horrific 😂😂😂
I agree. But in their defense, they are portraying him mostly when he was sick and 58 and 59, which looked older back then. He's a little before my time as far as his heyday. I was about 19 when he died. I remember how thin and sick he looked, not really his former handsome self. But yeah, the actor was off looks wise.
Rock Hudson was a class act. No matter who he chose to have a relationship with... No one's business, only his own 😢❤❤
? Class act would tell his partner that he was infected....and to keep infecting? He's a piece of work !
@@randymoran67 He was a total creep.
One of the most handsome men I've seen. R.I.P Rock Hudson
Nah....nah ...no way....Cary Grant...Robert Redford...Clark Gable...way above him
@BeaullahBelle-pc4em I agree with the first two you listed. Gable wasn't particularly handsome to me, but he had charm and I love GWTW. Cary was incredible.
What a strange life. No permanence, no family. Empty.
Family doesn't always mean what is cracked up to be. You can have a big family and still be all alone, especially when you most need it.
I know many people from my time working in nursing homes that had children that never visited or called. Social workers were the ones taking care of their crucial needs like finances. I have known children to say to us not to calk them until they are died. Yes, they just wanted the money. Family sometimes isn't all what it is cracked up to be.
I am fully and wholesomely straight, yet you spit on a lifestyle such as mine.
I'll let you know that I, "no permanence no family" am leagues above you and your quaint boring existence😂
@@brendakabanda2181
Sometimes the word "family" is just an empty
buzzword.
Otherwise many people wouldn't be so lonely.
For people who are very people- and family-oriented, this is something completely alien
and they can't or don't want to understand it.
The best and worst of humans. My heart breaks for those with this disease.
Sad that Rock Hudson was treated like a meal ticket.
I believe he loved his wife so much and couldn’t bear to hurt her that he cut himself off her completely. She needs to take comfort in. That knowledge. Dear Phillis. Bless you.
I loved Rock Hudson. He was an amazing actor. He was so handsome. RIP Rock. ❤️
Great documentary
RIP Rock , you were a Brilliant actor and a Very Handsome Man. Loved much by many woman.
It's really horrific that he died this way and the gospel is so horrible. They should look to the government the cabal and find out who created AIDS in the first place and who give it to all the people. They should be ashamed of themselves there are so many innocent victims of their ugliness. Rest in peace Rock Hudson your fans still love you
Evelynjacobs - read the book‘The River’ re the origin of AIDS ? They’ve been trying to depopulate for decades.Edit: allegedly.
Ummm I have to agree with the plaintiff here.. Rock put the man’s life in danger and for that he should pay for it … He didn’t try to gain any leverage he wanted to get paid for “non disclosure” and that’s it
Pillow Talk love it! I still watch McMillan and wife and still love it. It's so sad that people had to hide their true selves that's why we have so much depression and suicide 😢😢😢
Rock Hudson should have told people close to him ,which by this documentary ,he did but mr Christian and mr Hudson was know longer sexul intermittent or close , and had been asked numerous times to leave the premises,so i don't see why mr Christian had any right to mr Hudsons medical report ,as we are self had know right,to personal medical records
"no" not "know" longer.
With or without Aids Rock Huston will always be remembered as a great ..handsome..and legendary actor..RIP..❤❤❤
Marc was on Donahue with his attorney. They offered to settle for $900,000 but the insurance company declined so it went to trail. So this documentary doesn't seem truthful.
Iþ was unethical of rock not to tell Christian
I loved Rock Hudson so adorable Handsome what an actor on and off the Screen ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂
Morally and legally you have a duty to disclose. All I see here is a bunch of selfish greedy people. I wouldn’t be famous for nothing!
40 years ago no1 knew too much of Aids but when Rock died there was a dinner for him ❤ in California with all the stars and singers there me too😢 im his age now when he died ! He would be100 now and someone took his place ! Kaan = llgaz!
I think it's great the world found out and it made no difference.
Marc christian probably did die of AIDS. The pulmonary condition is a one of the sympthoms. Liberace died the same way.
no. just read about this, he did not die from anything from aids, and never had a positive test. why is everybody thinking his test was positive: never tested positive for it.
he died in 2009. if he had aids the doctors said he would die in 3.
@jessiejames7492, If he died from aids the doctors would have known.
I don't remember Rock Hudson looking like Dr. Oz. 🤔
I said the samething!!😂😂
😂
Whenever Rock costarred with Doris Day you knew the movie was going to be magic. Send Me No Flowers, Pillow Talk, and Lover Come Back are still my favorite movies to this day. RIP to Rock Hudson always ❤
The duty to warn, as the lawyer said. I couldn’t help but to root for the young guy.
Although I agree that a testament should be respected, when someone’s life is put at risk by another person, he should have every right to sue the estate.
Linda Evans from Dynasty was also put at risk without being warned. They French kissed on a scene when Rock Hudson already knew he had AIDS
@phulanadethal, There was no french kiss. Rock kept his mouth closed. Linda Evans said so in an interview.
The usual suspects ruined him.
He ruined himself.
Marc Christian was a horrible horrible man !
Marty Flaherty was my neighbor and friend back in Palm Springs early 2000’s!
They had better bedlinen than that creased up linen back in the 80s! It was crisp and smooth.
I remember him as an advocate for others infected with aids to fight for a cure and…
I was looking at the transcripts and wonering how they can allow this to be transcribed so badly!
It must be computer-generated because it's horribly inaccurate on EVERY channel. It's shameful that utube cannot do better.......not to mention CONFUSING for someone trying to follow the narrative.
Rock Hudson was a great actor I loved him❤❤
