Michael Eisner and Bette Midler talk about Aaron Russo (CNBC 2006)Michael Eisner and Bette Midler talk about Aaron Russo, who was Bette's former manager and also produced her film "The Rose". Eisner talks about how Russo had previously told him, joking of course, I'm going to kill you. Eisner also mentions Aaron's then new film - America Freedom to Fascism, saying, "he has this new film about how you don't have to pay your taxes," and Bette says, "that sounds about right." She also mentions how he was "a light in her life" and a fearless guy.
RIP Hero, Aaron Russo.
