The only two pics I've ever seen of Natalie Wood's unadorned left
wrist, which she always tried to hide w/a bracelet or band:
This resulted from an accident when she was ten, on a movie set where
she was on a bridge that collapsed and she fell into the rushing water
below (cue Twilight Zone theme). Her injury wasn't treated -- stage
mother didn't want to rock the boat w/the H'wood studios -- and it
didn't heal properly.
The movie she was making was produced by Glenn McCarthy, the Texas oil
wildcatter and real-life inspiration for the character of Jett Rink,
played by... Jim Stark.
The film was THE GREEN PROMISE.
