I thought a lot of Mr. Douglas until I read and heard the accusations of him raping Natalie Wood when she was 16. I understand that Natalie’s family is not going public with the evidence until after Mr. Douglas passes. Its a sad and credible accusation.

” until I read and heard the accusations of him raping Natalie Wood”

“The book controversially reveals Wood’s “rape” at the age of 16 by a man who Finstad will only identify as a “powerful, married movie star”.

So...years after Natalie Wood died, a book “reveals” she was raped at 16 by someone famous. No evidence offered. No names. In what sense is that a “credible accusation” that Kirk Douglas raped her?

This makes no sense. Natalie’s family has publicly accused Robert Wagoner of not telling the whole truth about her drowning so why on earth would they hold their fire about a rape accusation? The accusation is not credible since there is no proof, just a sensationalist book.
