Natalie Wood on the cover of People magazine, 2016. They picked a great photo of her for the cover, but I think they should have picked a color photo of her. |

Natalie Wood and Robert Wagner, 1970's. Their outfits are just so wonderfully 1970's! |
Natalie Wood is on the cover of this week’s People magazine. While the cover
promises to give us “the untold story,” there’s not much new inside. But there
is a nice interview with Natasha Gregson Wagner which doesn’t tread the same
ground as the recent New York Times profile
of her. There are also some great photos from Gregson Wagner’s personal
collection, including one of a radiant Natalie holding Natasha at 6 weeks old.
There’s also a great photo of the whole Wood/Wagner clan, including Natasha’s
half-sisters Courtney and Katie, from 1977. In that photo, Robert Wagner is
wearing a denim jacket that’s just barely buttoned, and Natalie is wearing
super high-waisted jeans that of course look really good on her, because no
style of clothing looked bad on her.
The cover also tells us that “Robert Wagner Breaks His
Silence,” and features a nice little sidebar in which he discusses Natasha and
Natalie. “Break His Silence” seems a little melodramatic as a headline, since
it makes it sound like he hasn’t discussed Natalie Wood since 1981.
It’s great to see Natalie on a magazine cover again, if you’re
a fan of hers, you should go pick up this week’s People.
