1975. Goddess of the silver screen Raquel Welch on career, being typecast

1975. On his Good Night America Program Geraldo Rivera hosts the 1975 Golden Globe winner and star of many sexy films.

“Well it’s really kind of funny…that was the only job I really had, and I had to use the money I got in the sunday afternoon doing that walk on to pay ..the rent, the food and everything for my two kids and myself…”

Clips are shown of some of Ms Welch’s earlier bits at the Hollywood Palace, the movie 1 Million BC, Bedazzled and much more. She talks about seeing her younger self in these films and being appreciated for body alone. Raquel makes an interesting claim, along the lines of the more ‘freedom’ a woman has may not necessary lead to benefits for that woman. At what point is it just trying to be hip? Is there happiness at the end of the sex goddess journey?

This day, Geraldo’s television history.
