I'd have to say I loved her in any film she was in. There's one in particular I've been wanting to see again...This Property is Condemnmed, from 1966.
How about some Natalie trivia:
- Suffering from a deep fear of drowning after having barely survived an accident during the filming of The Green Promise (1949), her fear was so great that Elia Kazan had to lie, promising a double, and tricked her into doing the scenes at the water reservoir in Splendor in the Grass (1961).
- Reportedly turned down Warren Beatty's offer to play opposite him in Bonnie and Clyde (1967) because she didn't want to be separated from her analyst while the film was on location in the Midwest.
- An accident on a movie set when she was 9 years old left her with a permanently weakened left wrist and a slight bone protrusion, which, for the rest of her life, she hid with large bracelets. Regardless of the movie role, or anytime that she was out in public, she always wore a large bracelet on the left wrist.
- She dated Elvis Presley in the 1950s, and Elvis wanted to marry her, but his mother did not like Natalie.
- Don Henley wrote the song 'Dirty Laundry' to express his outrage at the tabloid press for their treatment of her after her death.
