  • Natalie was radiant, classy, beautiful, intelligent, and funny - her story is humorous and touching - I'm sure Bette was touched by it.

    Wagner, on the other hand, is a phony hanger-on who just had to get some of the limelight here with his cheesy line. Natalie's vivid recollection outshines any of his self-serving and egotistical speeches any day.

  • I can't forgive Walken ... or Wagner for that matter...

  • betty did not react when wagner said his part...she just stared.  wonder what she was thinking.

  • :-O...I can't believe they threw kids in the ocean like that. That is horrific!

  • @SoCalGal52

    Oh I did not know that,but pretty weird.Thanks.

  • @nema1218 Actually nema, she became afraid of water when she nearly drowned while making The Green Promise in 1949. There was a scene where a bridge she was hanging onto actually broke loose and all kinds of water came roaring down onto her. She very nearly drowned in that scene which you can see if you ever have seen this film. It's a good movie. Don't mean to correct you but the author who wrote Natasha points that out as the critical moment when water became her enemy. So weird.

  • Wagner is guilty and should have been in jail for the past 30 years

  • @SoCalGal52

    Yes I know,good point.She seemed to get with men who were far below her looks.The second husband Gregson was very unattractive,Wagner was far better.And if she did have an affair with Walken,I could understand how he may have been an emotional safe haven for her since maybe the marriage was rocky with Wagner.But still Walken was creepy looking.

    She could have done much,much ,much better.Seriously!

  • @SoCalGal52

    Yeah it was like she forsaw her own death just four years later.Ever since a director threw her into the ocean in 1952 at age 14(why did he do that ?!),she has been deathly afraid of the ocean.

    She does look sexy and I say Natalie had the cutest facial expressions of any woman.Check out the video of her on What is My Line? and how she crinkles her nose.So cute and sexy!

    Here she looks like Catherine Zeta Jones,except much better.

  • @nema1218 Wow, your good nema to notice that. I've watched this video many times and never saw her eyebrow motion at 2:25. I watched it again just now and you are so right. It's a very sexy subtle little motion. I wonder who she was looking at? Tis a mystery, just like her death. It still weirds me out when she mentions Catalina.
