Natalie Wood on DVD
I read that Warners is doing a Natalie Wood box-set for later this year: a restored "Splendor in the Grass", "Sex and the Single Girl" and "Inside Daisy Clover." Great movies, but what about "The Girl He Left Behind", "The Burning Hills", "A Cry in The Night" (where Nat gets kidnapped by Raymond Burr!), and "Marjorie Morningstar"? I know you can't have everything but I sure hope they don't give up after only three!

Re: Natalie Wood on DVD
Warners no longer controls "A Cry In The Night" and "Marjorie Morningstar". The former belongs to Alan Ladd's estate (his company produced it) and the latter resides with the Richard Feiner Company.

Re: Natalie Wood on DVD
I noticed that Amazon recently got around to putting up a placeholder for Love With The Proper Stranger.
I'm hoping we'll see it some time in 2008 (I could see Paramount scheduling it close to the Warner set).
Marjorie Morningstar was released by Artisan some years back. The disc is awful though. Don't know if it is still in print or not, but I would recommend avoiding it anyway.

Re: Natalie Wood on DVD
I'm surprised that MGM/UA/Fox/Sony have not brought out TOMORROW IS FOREVER yet with Orson Welles and Claudette Colbert. Next to MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET, it is easily Wood's best performance as a child (and also her first speaking part).

Re: Natalie Wood on DVD
Read on-line this morning that WB's Natalie Wood box-set is scheduled for 2008 and will only include the restored "Splendor", also "Daisy Clover" and "Sex & the Single Girl". Even if "Splendor" is a 2-disc, awfully slim for a box-set, don't you think?
