Legal Commentary

Natasha Richardson has suffered a serious head injury in a skiing accident.

We saw her on Broadway in "Cabaret," back in 1998. She'd won a Tony for her portrayal of Sally Bowles, the role that had been identified with Liza Minelli. She played the part completely differently. It was quite cool.

I looked for a good video clip of her. A Google video search brings a scene from "Asylum" up first. Watch that ? when you're not at work ? and you'll see why that is popular on the internet. I've decided to embed the trailer from "A Handmaid's Tale" ? that creepy feminist sci-fi atrocity ? because I thought you might like to talk about it. It doesn't show off Richardson's acting. In fact, if I were judging her acting ability from this alone, I'd say she was quite bad. I'm not trying to trash her here though. I'm sad about the accident. But let's talk about something more than that it's sad she's had this accident.
