There was this little movie on Encore, or one of those type channels called Widow’s Peak.  Didn’t think I would care much for the flick, but I got captivated by an actress I wasn’t familiar with at the time.  That was Natasha Richardson.

Very sad that her life was cut so short.

I saw her in Nell, and she became a favorite of mine from then on. She was a great actress and it’s sad for her family as well as her fans who will not get to see her rise to her potential now. My thoughts and prayers sre with her family.

They were both great in the movie Nell.

Like Nell and May, Pa and Ma, “Tay in na win”.

(Trees in the Wind).......

A sad loss.

yes it is very tragic. my prayers to the family. she was a great actress and her husband is a great actor. i loved her mother in camelot.

great actress. sorry to hear.
