Rewatched #splendorinthegrass … a lot of merits, Natalie Wood on the top of that list. She is sublime.

New York Times;

‘Wood has a beauty and radiance that carry her through a role of violent passions and depressions with unsullied purity and strength. There is poetry in her performance, and her eyes in the final scene bespeak the moral significance and emotional fulfillment of this film.’

"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 splendour in the grass, of glory in the flower;
We will grieve not, rather find
Strength in what remains behind"

Just rips me apart. Every time I see it. From age 13 to 67. Though nothing can bring back the hour of splendor in the grass, glory in the flower... #SplendorInTheGrass

Bud Stamper crying against the wall in hospital. I saw my Dad do that, when we brought Mom to DePauls mental hospital for shock treatment. Deanie, running across the lawn-- I did that-- it is exactly what the front of DePauls looked like. #SplendorInTheGrass ##NatalieWood #WarrenBeaty
