Season 1 Review:
If you’re as fascinated with Wood’s life and career as we are, Natalie Wood: What Remains Behind will be a font of information you may not have already known about. But it certainly isn’t a place to get the definitive account of her death, because even those most intimately involved with her have no idea what happened.

Season 1 Review:
Produced by her daughter Natasha Gregson Wagner, Natalie Wood: What Remains Behind is lovingly constructed with a child's heart, but falters in places that could have benefited from a journalist's eye. As is, this HBO documentary about the gone-too-soon star feels like a lovely valentine to her mother, but still plays like a Hallmark card where it requires more edge.

Season 1 Review:
An HBO documentary, directed with conventional flair by Laurent Bouzereau, who made it with the cooperation (and therefore, to a degree, the control) of Wood’s family members. ... “Natalie Wood: What Remains Behind” is not the definitive, investigative, leave-no-stone-unturned-and-set-the-record-straight chronicle that you’d want, and expect, from HBO. The film’s presentation of the tragedy is perfectly straightforward (and not necessarily wrong), but it leaves you with the same nagging questions that have haunted this case forever.

Season 1 Review:
Any hope of searing honesty from an interview about [Natalie Wood's drowning death] was dashed by Gregson Wagner’s approach. ... This needed a sharp interlocutor, not a loving daughter. As a straightforward eulogy to Wood, with high calibre contributors (Robert Redford, Mia Farrow) and fond reminisces from family members, it worked. ... But what remained behind was the feeling that we were only being given part of the picture.
