For Natalie Portman and her fans.

Please watch in HD where possible. Thank you.

"Sometimes, there's so much beauty in the world, I feel like I can't take it, and my heart is just going to cave in."

"The beautiful is above all a form, and the light does not fall on this form from above and from outside, rather it breaks forth from the form's interior." - Hans Urs von Balthasar

"There's a lot of colors there. She's so beautiful it hurts." - Darren Aronofsky

whats the film at 2:04 (when she has the hat on and cries). Is it Where The Heart Is?

[darkprose]

@theempire00 Ah, no, that is a scene from Anywhere But Here (1999), where she costars with Susan Sarandon. Portman is excellent in that one.

Great video, I love natalie portman especially in black swan and the professional

[darkprose]

@xmissmusicstarx Me, too. Those are two of my top favorites of hers. Though I think I could probably just watch her sitting and room with a single window, the shadows changing across her face as the planet she is on moves around a star.

[pjforever02]

So good! Actually made me tear up a little.. Natalie is such a beauty inside and out! Def. one of my all time favorite actresses. This is amazing!!

[darkprose]

@pjforever02 Very pleased you enjoyed it. Nice to meet another Natalie Portman fan.

Today is Nat's 30th Birthday. Happy birthday Angel.

[thelupoistheman1]

Dear god, this woman is just too gorgeous and stunning. Her beautiful hair, those delicious baby brown eyes, that lovely smile and laugh. She's a perfect example of class, grace, intelligence and talent.

I've had a crush on her for 13 years and I always will. Love ya billions Natalie.

[theempire00]

@darkprose thanks! (btw, she looks super cute with the hat lol)

[hunt391]

Is there any doubt that it is the most beautiful woman in the world

[xmissmusicstarx]

@darkprose I know!

@BeautyNatalie Thank you for the comment and enjoying it. Though I am sure Natalie is very busy with her new child. ;-)
