Many home movies are shown of people laughing and enjoying themselves but you learn later that their lives were anything but happy or enjoyable. It is hard to reconcile the happy looking Natalie Wood in her home movies with her daughter stating that she tried to kill herself several times when she was younger. It is also difficult to see such a talented and beautiful woman that has so much self doubt that she will get married to men who are obviously wrong for her just so she won't be alone. It would have been a better documentary if Natasha Gregson Wagner stuck with her original concept of celebrating her mother's life and talent instead of the circumstances of her death.
