She was recently in "Evening" with her mother, Vanessa, and Toni Collette. (A very interesting film)

I had found the Natasha Richardson article mentioned above at
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,509621,00.html
Possibly that link works; I thought it was a really good article; found it on my own earlier and saved a copy, just in case the link doesn't work.

Just heartbreaking. She was such a beautiful person too. Liam will be gutted, I'm sure. And those poor boys...

Just to be official :-(

Natasha Richardson dies after ski fall

I bet she died last night or this morning, but that family wanted time to deal with her passing before making it official. A very random and sad accident.

That poor man is in the middle of shooting a film in Canada. It's not like he's realistically going to be able to take off a few months to grieve and help his sons. Hopefully the film's insurance will kick in and help him take the time he needs to regroup. As if there is enough time for such a thing.

I read it happened at 1:30'ish today. Someone named Liz Thomas reported then that the machine had been turned off.

I watched her with her mother in the movie 'Evening' a year or so ago. The movie was about a mother who was dying and her two daughters who had come home to help her die. Natasha played the sweet daughter, Toni Collette the rebel. I remember thinking at the time how strange it must be for her, knowing that one day she would have to watch her mother die. Who knew it would be the opposite that would happen. I'm really shocked and stunned and very deeply touched and saddened by this. She had so much life left to live. And it would have been such a good life too.

horrible. I'd always loved her as an actress. And the thought of it being part of a beginner lesson somehow for me makes it worse.

I liked her as well. Something about her was very likeable. She was a beautiful woman and seemed to have a happy marriage. Her poor children and family

I am so sad for her family. Just another reminder to tell/show your loved ones that you love them daily.

She was probably learning to ski so they could all do it together as a family. This is just so sad and tragic.

If this was a normal fall, why did the ski instructor make her go down with the ski patrol in a tobaggan? I've skied and fallen before with instructors and have never had that happen (and I had a really nasty fall with an instructor once). So, I am wondering if she blacked out for a moment or something after the fall. They also kept telling her to see a doctor. There just seems to me that there was something a bit unusual about the fall for the ski instructor and ski patrol to be so cautious in what they were doing.

I wondered the same thing Kooklie. When you're a beginner, you're always falling down. I thought it was strange that the instructor took her back to the hotel and stayed with her for an hour.

Kooklie, when it comes to a famous person, we never know when it comes to first aid. Heck, someone from the Jackson family goes to the hospital when they have a cold.

Yeah, maybe, but it still seems a bit odd to me. Falling is part of being a beginner. I guess we will never know. Truly a 'freak' accident.

Maybe the instuctor had a hunch and just knew, or she fell at a very odd angle. Not that I know anything about it, but maybe it was apparent something was very wrong. More details will come out about what happened.

It sounds like there was a fear the fall caused a concussion, which is why they'd want her to see a doctor. I've been concussed numerous times, have never lost conciousness because of it, was encouraged to see a Dr., don't fall asleep for a certain number of hours, etc. That may be what happened.
I first saw her in the film "A Handmaid's Tale" and had a girl-crush ever since. My sincerest condolences for her family, with special prayers for her children. She seemed to be one of the few true, class acts left in Hollywood.

I bet we will hear more about how the accident happened in the next few days if only to inform people to be cautious and seek medical attention under similar circumstances. To just leave the information out there the way it is will frighten people too much to not provide more information for the public.

As far as Liam being in the middle of a movie and not being able to take months off to mourn, going back to work within a 2-4 weeks is best in my opinion. Otherwise the grief will be overwhelming. I've known many people who have suffered tragic losses (myself included) and all have gone back to work as soon as they felt they could and they welcomed the opportunity to get back in a routine doing a worthwhile and enjoyable job. It helps you to put one foot in front of the other. Besides, he will be grieving for life. Work allows us to give our minds a rest from nonstop grieving.

So very sad. Such a loss, so talented, young, not scandal ridden or drugged out...

I also wondered about being taken off the slopes for a simple fall.. heck the only times I did go skiing, I had lessons and I fell and fell and fell.. you wouldn't see a single helmet on a beginner slope at that time.
