The first time I fell in love (almost literally) with Natalie Wood was after looking up to her in the classic movie "Rebel without a cause", particularly in the scene in which she, together with the gang of her schoolfellows, got near slowly and almost stealthily to the car of Dean parked in front of the Planetarium and then she sat on the bonnet of his car drawing herself up and crossing her legs at the same time, in a graceful and elatic as well as subtly exciting gesture. And besides beauty, charm, intelligence, skill, womanliness: Nat had all those qualities to the highest degree and as well-matched as possible, a real show for eyes and mind.
No American actress has ever moved me more!
Thank you to have lived, dearest and wonderful Nat; we will never forget you and we will miss you forever but we can say already now that the world has been a bit better thanks to your luminous presence...
A huge admirer from Italy

Hello everyone. Love is the ability and willingness to allow those that you care for to be what they choose for themselves without any insistence that they satisfy you.
I am from Mozambique and too poorly know English, give true I wrote the following sentence: "We focus on the individual and set treatment methods around their specific needs.Alcohol abuse, though not a chronic disease like alcoholism, requires treatment."
With best wishes  , Reilly.

I believe that the yacht Splendour is now living quietly at the Ala Wai Yacht harbor in Honolulu... If you are still interested I can send you a picture... If this is truly the boat. I am not positive. (But it looks like the same yacht)

I found pictures of The "Splendour" (I've seen it spelled both ways)at a web page called "morbidly hollywood" and by searching Google images. Although a lot of the information is conflicting. Some sites refer to sailing, but the Splendour is not a Sail boat. I've also read they were married on a friend's Yacht, others say the Splendour.

We just pulled our boat out to work on at the La Conner Maritime boat yard in Washington State and one of the workers claims that The Splendour is also in the yard. We took a look and it does look like it. I'll take a picture of it tomorrow if anyone is interested.

For all of the curious parties here. The yacht is currently owned by a very good family friend. "The yacht is again called Splendour and is very quietly residing in Ko Olina Marina in Honolulu; though he would like to get it back to Ala Wai. Ron is the one who took it across the ocean from CA to HI. He has lots of stories to tell, but the yacht has been the joy of his life. It has had it's fair share of engine troubles since he's had it too. Not to mention all the issues that just go with owning/maintaining a yacht. Plus it's old and all wood which adds a lot to it's maintenance."

Yes, its true, the yacht was donated to the seascouts immediatly after natalie's death, it was used for about 2 years, then sold at auction after one of the twin cummins 901 diesel engines blew up and it was to costly to replace, My friend Steve Greene's, father purchased the yacht, replaced the engine, and used it for a charter fishing boat, He also changed the name from the "SPLENDOUR" to the "GRACEFUL LADY",at that point it was put back in Marina del rey, and moored next to George Hamiltons yacht. The dinghy named the "valiant", was sold to Robert Goulet, to be used on his yacht the "ROGO". I actually spent alot of time on this yacht(graceful lady), and alot of time at marina del rey, that summer, if you would like to talk about this feel free to call me on my cell phone 509-217-2582

Did you find a link to the yacht Splendour. I just watched a movie 'Dangerous Charter' and was wandering if this was the famous yacht.
