Broadbent. This week: Meet the Australian actress Nicole Kidman. Once
best known as the wife of Tom Cruise, Nicole has since become a member
of the Hollywood ‘A’ list, an exclusive group of young actors who
command multi-million dollar salaries and willingly or not, provide
endless fodder for the paprazzi and glossy magazines. Although she now
resides in the U.S., Nicole is currently back home in Sydney where she
recently attended the world premiere of her latest film, The
Interpreter. And we continue our series ‘HIV Today’. When it first made
headlines around the world HIV was linked to an inevitable early death.
But decades on and with improvements in treatment, the disease is no
longer a death sentence for HIV positive people -- some have lived with
the virus for more than 20 years. But, as we hear, barriers still
remain in the community for H-I-V positive people who want to live a
normal life. Some of these barriers are of their own making.
