[NEBULOSEFFEMER]

What though the radiance which was once so bright Be now for ever taken from my sight, Though nothing can bring back the hour Of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower We will grieve not, rather find Strength in what remains behind; In the primal sympathy Which having been must ever be; In the soothing thoughts that spring Out of human suffering; In the faith that looks through death, In years that bring the philosophic mind.

YEs... with time disillusion and realism sets in. The boy you once thought was everything in your teens and early 20s (because you didn't know any better and didn't judge) really turns out to be an ordinary schmo with lots of serious problems. Luckily, some of us escape to much better lives.

I was told a long time ago that it was insinuated somewhere in the film that Wood's character got pregnant by her boyfriend??? someone correct me on this if I'm wrong.

Natalie Wood looks like Kimberly Williams and Warren Beatty reminds me of James Franco

She breaks your heart. What a sad commentary of how young women think they have no worth. Women, or men should never forsake their innocents just because they are pressured by the men in their lives do put out. She is so tormented because she has dignity not to be the rule but the exception when it comes sex. I wish this could be shown in the high schools, no better lesson comes to mind to show men and women what not to do. You just want to hug her and tell her that no man is worh this sacrifice

Anytime in our lives false hope can do so many things to the heart and mind....

Natalie was AMAZING in this! robbed of much deserved Academy Award! This was one of my mother's favorite movies and is one of mine now.You cannot deny that Natalie embodies all the confusion,beauty,insecurity,an­d passions of a teenager coming of age.What a talented and deeply missed woman.
