Natasha Richardson is not dead.

Nor did she hit a tree.

She wasn’t even carried away on a stretcher.

She is, however, still in serious condition with head trauma in a Montreal hospital after a skiing accident on Monday.

The accident occurred on a beginners’ slope and there was no immediate sign of trauma or injury.

Natasha was walking around, joking and feeling fine for an hour after her accident, which happened while she was taking a private ski lesson. When she was near the bottom of the run, in a section know as the flats, she fell down. Although ski patrol was called, she seemed fine and walked back to her room.

But an hour after the fall, Richardson started complaining of headaches. She went to a nearby hospital and was later transferred to the Intensive Care Unit of Sacré Coeur Hospital.

That is so scary.

Her husband, Liam Neeson, was filming Chloe in Toronto and immediately left the set to be by her side.

Get well soon, Natasha.

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
