In 1981, the popular "Hollywood sweetheart" Natalie Wood fell into the water and died, becoming one of the most tragic and mysterious deaths in Hollywood history.
Natalie was born on July 20, 1938, to a family of Russian immigrants in San Francisco, California.
Natalie has a god-given good face, sweet and lovely, but her life is full of all kinds of misfortunes.
Her family was poor, her father was alcoholic and violent, and her mother was a former ballet dancer who longed for fame and fortune and used her daughters as tools to make money and change their destiny.
At the age of four, Natalie was accidentally photographed by the crew of the movie "Happy Land" because of her well-behaved appearance, playing a girl who cried because she dropped ice cream.
The "electrocution" experience greatly excited her mother, and since then, she has been determined to train Natalie to become a movie star.
In order to make Natalie better in her career, the family moved to South Los Angeles.
At the age of 7, Natalie began to audition for the film, but it did not go well at first, but the strong mother ran to the production department to fight for Natalie's chances.
In 1947, Natalie successfully starred in the Christmas classic "Dream Street".
Natalie was naïve and agile, and soon won the favor of many investors, won the invitation of multiple films, and became a child star.
Throughout Natalie's shadow and growth, the mother's control is everywhere.
In order to make more money, the mother took her young daughter to chase one chase after another.
Once, natalie accidentally injured her left wrist while filming a scene falling into a raging river, but her mother refused to take her to the hospital in order not to affect the progress of the shooting, but instead hastily helped her treat the wound, resulting in Natalie's hand leaving a lifetime of scars.
After that, Natalie could only use a bracelet to cover up the scar, and she fell into the psychological shadow of a lifelong fear of water.
(Ironically, it was the rushing water that ultimately took her life.) ）
As Natalie grew older, her beauty grew, attracting the covetousness of some lustful people in the circle, and at the age of 16, she was sexually assaulted by big-name stars.
After the mother knew, she just said coldly: "As long as you don't say it, no one will know."
For the mother, the daughter's ability to stand out in the circle is obviously much more important than her innocence and dignity.
At the age of 17, Natalie had already become a lady and ushered in her first love.
Boyfriend Jimmy is the son of a farmer, and Natalie, who is already famous, does not mind the ordinariness of her boyfriend at all, and the relationship between the two is pure and sincere.
However, the relationship was firmly opposed by the snobbish mother.
Unable to escape her mother's control, Natalie cut off her love affair with Jimmy, and a sad and desperate Jimmy attempted suicide by drinking a bullet.
Knowing that her beloved had self-harmed herself, Natalie was heartbroken and bedridden for a week, after which she refused to mention Jimmy's name again.
Fortunately, although emotionally frustrated, the career is proud.
This year, Natalie played a rebellious high school student in "Rebel without a Cause", won her first academy award, ushered in a milestone in her career, and became a close friend with actor James Dean.
Unfortunately, shortly before the release of the film, James died in a car accident, and the grief-stricken Natalie cried for two days.
However, the mother did not care about her daughter's mood, forcing her to dry her tears and dress up for the premiere of the film.
The mother's greed and coldness caused great harm to the children, and Natalie's sister could not bear it and ran away from home.
Natalie is in deep pain and can only seek long-term help from a psychiatrist and try to find solace through one relationship after another.
She had three marriages in her life, two of which were with the same person, Robert Wagner, and the two were like a pair of heavenly resentful couples.
When she was only 11 years old, when she saw the handsome Robert at the age of 19, she was moved and said, "I will marry him when I grow up!" ”
At the age of 19, Natalie married Robert as she wished, but the marriage was not happy.
That was the time when Natalie's career was at its peak, when she made a name for herself with the film West End Story and was nominated for an Oscar.
Robert, on the other hand, has a strong sense of self-esteem and jealousy, he can't accept Natalie's career, his prestige overshadows him, and he can't stand his wife's flirtation with other men when filming.
In 1962, the two ended their five-year marriage amid a day-to-day argument.
After the divorce, Natalie completely let herself go emotionally, and the gossip objects one after another, Warren Beatty, Frank Sinatra and Steve McQuee...
It wasn't until 1969 that she remarried to marry British producer Richard Gray.
After marriage, Natalie once again wanted to have a child, but was once again strongly opposed by her mother, who even cursed her daughter and said, "You will definitely die in childbirth"!
However, Natalie became pregnant and gave birth to her eldest daughter, Natasha.
Unlike mothers, Natalie loves her children and does her best to accompany her daughter and let her have a normal and healthy childhood.
Therefore, when she saw her mother extending her "claws" to Natasha in an attempt to induce her to go to the shadow, Natalie completely broke out and drove her mother out of the house without mercy.
Sadly, the second marriage lasted only a few short years.
In 1972, Natalie, who was single again, rekindled her old love affair with her ex-husband Robert and gave birth to her daughter Courtney.
However, this lost and regained relationship is still not happy.
Robert is still the same Robert, he is still jealous, often inexplicably jealous, but also suspicious of his wife and actor Christopher. Walken has a stain.
On Thanksgiving Day in 1981, Natalie invited Walken on a yacht trip.
Watching Natalie and Walken talk and laugh, Robert is jealous and has a fierce argument with Natalie.
In the night, Natalie and a lifeboat on board suddenly disappeared, and the search and rescue team searched, but it was not until seven o'clock the next morning that Natalie's body was found floating at sea.
At the time, Natalie's death was judged to be an accident, and it was speculated that she accidentally fell into the water because she wanted to go ashore on her own boat.
Natalie was only 43 years old when she died, and countless fans lamented it, and many people cried out for her, suspecting that her death had other hidden feelings, after all, she was so afraid of the water, how could she go out alone in a small boat in the middle of the night?
It wasn't until 30 years later, natalie's unexpected death, that it was mentioned again.
In an interview, Captain Davin said, "Robert is responsible for Natalie's death, I heard Robert and Walken arguing fiercely, and then I heard a thud!" ”
Darwin is sure that their altercation led to Natalie's death.
As a result, the police announced a re-investigation of the case.
However, after so many years, the truth has long been more and more blurred with the vicissitudes of the sea.
Natalie's life is exactly the same as the red face and thin life, just as she once said: "Everything is a smoke cloud, and so am I." ”
