Ginger Alden/Linda Thompson interview...

[franny]

This interview (clip) was interesting. The background music is a little loud, but this is still a good one! It's from 1980, according to the clip...

Interesting interview. I didn't know there were any videos of Ginger on youtube.

I came across another interview given by Ginger. Joe E. and Charlie H. (I think) are interviewed before Ginger on this one.

Heres some text from another interview with Linda Thompson in it she explains some about the movie "Elvis & the Beauty Queen"
Linda Thompson:
... You know, Elvis had a real childlike spirit and I have too. I like to do childlike things and to sometimes get down to a child's level. ...

Interviewer:
Have you ever met anyone with as much charisma as Elvis?

Thompson:
... I don't ever expect to meet anyone again in my life with that absolute magic. Elvis was one of a kind. ...

... Everyone has a personal magic. We're all like snowflakes, unique in our creation. We're so much alike and we're all just drifting through life but we all have our own character, our own shape. Elvis was just unique, incredibly sensual and tender. He was funny and he was good. He was an extreme in every aspect of his life. ...

Interviewer:
That bullet story is in the film, Elvis and the Beauty Queen. What did you think of the movie?

Thompson:
... You know, it was a little frustrating because it's impossible to encapsulate in two hours what happened in a five-year relationship of the intensity of my relationship with Elvis. It's difficult to be totally objective about it because it was so close to everything that happened. I felt that they chose something to expound upon like the drug usage and such problems more than his sensitivity, his generosity, his playfulness and his talent. You know, these are the things that I talked in length about. I spoke far more in detail about the acts of generosity and his spirituality and his kindness. Of course there was the drug abuse and the self-destructiveness, but this is what they expounded upon. ...
