The Death of Natasha Richardson

It is shocking to see that such a talented woman died because of an "accident."

A NYT article/obit:

"But almost no one doubts that Ms. Redgrave inspired her daughter as well. Like her mother, Ms. Richardson was known for disappearing into a role, for not capitalizing on her looks and for being drawn to characters under duress."

It seems that Natasha was just as brilliant off the screen as on the screen. What a Hollywood rarity to "not capitalize on looks" but to actually rely on pure talent. After all, "beauty is as beauty does," Natasha proved false "that beauty is only skin deep."

Many will miss her.

  2. I'm such a dork, but one of my favorite movies is Disney's more recent remake of The Parent Trap with Lindsay Lohan, Dennis Quaid and Natasha Richardson. I love her in this movie and it's so sad that this has happened so fast to someone so young.
