Who is Natalie Wood

Ranked #9,107 in Entertainment, #101,643 overall

A captivatingly talented child actress who was a three time Academy Award nominated American film actress! The awesome Natalie Wood!

Natalie Wood was a multi-talented, captivatingly beautiful child actress who made that transition into adulthood on screen.  Her acting career continued to be strong until her untimely death at the age of 43. After 30 years, the case has been reopened! An inquiry into the death of Natalie Wood.

Did her husband, at the time, Robert Wagner have an "involvement" into her death; did he share all that he witnessed the night of her death? What does the captain, of the boat they were on, really know about that night? Christopher Walken has not been implicated in the death of Natalie Wood? It is one big interesting mystery! Let's see how it all unravels.

To me, she was my favorite actress of all times.  As I sit here pondering who else I would include in my favorites, it is difficult to find another actress that I can compare to Natalie Wood.

Natalie Wood was one of a kind. A truly remarkable person and talent. I am wanting to remember the beauty and inspiration of Natalie Wood ... An Open Letter to Natalie Wood!

An Open Letter to Natalie Wood

So much to love about Natalie Wood

Dear Natalie Wood ... up there in Heaven,

Where do I begin? Oh my, it was indeed heartbreaking, to say the very least, when I learned of your untimely death all those years ago. Then, to hear that you drowned? It was incomprehensible to think that you would have ventured out, in the darkness of night, to adjust any dinghy. It just never made sense to me; no way.

Now, I am rather horrified to think that they are reopening your case to dredge up all those painful memories of your untimely passing. To think people are DIGGING you up? It's just not right.

I can't imagine that any people, who loved you dearly, would have not tried to save you, all those years ago. To think that you are a beautiful angel up in heaven is a nice thought. To think of any grubs eating away at your earthly remains >>> well, not so nice thought.

My dear Natalie Wood, in all sincere honesty, you were such an inspiration to me and so many others here on earth. We apologize now for any extra dirt being thrown your way.

Thinking back to my youth, it is Natalie Wood that is definitely my favorite actress from that time. The picture of hers that stands out as memorable annual favorite is Miracle on 34th Street. I can watch that film every year!

Did you know that she was only 5'0"? I had no idea she was so short.

Did you know it has been reported that she frequently dated singer Elvis Presley and actors Raymond Burr, Dennis Hopper, Warren Beatty, Nick Adams, Tab Hunter, Michael Caine and Scott Marlowe.

A very sad day indeed was November 29, 1981, at the age of ONLY forty-three, Wood drowned while her and Wagner's yacht The Splendor was anchored near Catalina Island. Los Angeles County coroner Thomas Noguchi's investigation resulted in an official verdict of accidental drowning, although speculation about the circumstances continues even today!

That same year I decided I wanted to grow up to be Natalie Wood. She was such a beautiful movie star, and throughout my adolescence I used to dream about being in the movies even though I was not a beauty. I was encouraged by the Ugly Duckling story.

This just in: Wagner not a suspect in Natalie Wood's death. Okay, there were three people on the ship. One died. One isn't a suspect. The police think there was foul play... Might not be looking so good for Mr. Walkein. http://nyti.ms/vqVfwI by bjohnson

    I LOVE her! My favorite Natalie Wood Movie is Splendor in the Grass. I have always wondered what REALLY happened the night she drowned.

    She was one of my favorites. Robert Wagner did look very sad but we must remember that he is an actor. Who knows?? I don't think than an investigation will turn up anything and I concur with most others that it is a shame to put the family through this once again.
    Good coverage, Julie.

    Absolutely, notice that George Seaton wrote Miracle on 3th Street, a great picture I love to this day. The word Seaton leapt off the movie poster since tht be COUNTRYLUTHIERS actual Sir name. Well done Jaguar Julie, Natalie Wood was great.

    Yes, and it's so hard to watch "Brainstorm." I'm sure her death was an accident, and am sad that her family has to relive the pain of their loss all over again.

    I really liked her, never realized she was of Russian descent though. It's sad in a way that they are dredging all this up again, and all they seem to have to go on are the statements from the boat skipper. I have always thought that Robert Wagner looks as if he is hiding something, and as for Christopher Walken, he has always just looked plain creepy. Excellent lens about one of the tragedies of our time, blessed.

    I enjoyed all movies that starred Natalie Wood. I can't believe how much her daughter resembles her.

    Natalie Wood was the epitome of the word star. Talented and beautiful beyond belief. Please stop referring to her death as an accident. Read the book, Goodbye Natalie, Goodbye Splendour and judge for yourself. Better yet, honor her birthday by signing the petition to reopen the investigation into her death. (gopetion.com) It's long overdue.
