Tributes to 'luminous' Richardson
Stars of stage and screen have paid tribute to actress Natasha Richardson, who has died at the age of 45, following a skiing accident in Canada.
Dame Judi Dench said she had a rare "luminous quality", and that Richardson still had great work ahead of her. Film-maker Ken Russell, who directed Richardson in her 1986 screen debut in Gothic, praised her "ephemeral delicacy and intelligent beauty". Director Sam Mendes called the star "a magnificent actress". The Oscar-winner, who worked with Richardson in a Broadway production of Cabaret, added: "It defies belief that this gifted, brave, tenacious, wonderful woman is gone."
Kevin Spacey, the director of London's Old Vic, said: "There are no words to express how tragic Natasha Richardson's untimely passing is for the theatre community. "Her passion, devotion and talent will forever be etched on those who saw her work on the stage. The bloodlines of greatness were always there and she committed herself to every role she tackled," he added. Richardson, the daughter of actress Vanessa Redgrave, fell on a beginners' slope at the Mont Tremblant resort in Quebec on Monday. The accident happened while the actress was taking a supervised skiing lesson.
'Beloved Natasha' Richardson died in a New York hospital, close to the home she shared with Irish actor Liam Neeson and their two sons. The family were devastated by the death of their "beloved Natasha", her husband's publicist said. Richardson initially showed no sign of injury but about an hour later she was taken to a nearby hospital after feeling unwell. It was later confirmed her injuries were critical. Hollywood star Neeson, 56, flew from the set of his new film in Toronto to be with his wife as soon as he heard news of the accident.
He accompanied her as she was flown from Canada to Lenox Hill Hospital, in New York, on Tuesday. Neeson, her mother, Oscar-winning actress Vanessa Redgrave, and two sons, Michael, 13, and Daniel, 12, had gathered at her bedside. Her sister, the Nip/Tuck actress Joely Richardson, was also pictured visiting the hospital. Richardson's death was announced shortly before midnight GMT. Neeson left the Manhattan hospital in a people carrier at about 2030 local time (0030 GMT). Alan Nierob, Neeson's publicist, said: "Liam Neeson, his sons, and the entire family are shocked and devastated by the tragic death of their beloved Natasha. "They are profoundly grateful for the support, love and prayers of everyone, and ask for privacy during this very difficult time." Richardson starred in films and TV but won most acclaim for her stage work. Part of the Redgrave acting dynasty, she was the daughter of Redgrave and director Tony Richardson.
Richardson and Neeson married in 1994
"She had an incredibly luminous quality that you seldom see, and a great sense of humour"
