Covering a two-year period, the outcome is at times disjointed and episodic as the title character played by Natalie Wood emerges more nebulous than definitive. Full Review

Hollywood self-satire is also a corridor of mirrors where movie makers are apt to start cringing. Full Review

Rating: C+ -- Director Mulligan can't find the right tone for Gavin Lambert's inside Hollywood tale about a girl rise to stardom before collapsing and so the story veers from a cautionary fable to Gothic melodrama to farce, but some of the acting is good. Full Review

Wood has one great breakdown scene, reminiscent of Judy Garland (an inspiration for the character) but she lacks the star's range and depth of emotion, and the songs don't hold a candle to Arlen and Co. Full Review

The talented director Robert Mulligan, apparently engulfed by studio overproduction, falters at times, not always knowing whether to play things straight or for laughs. Full Review

Product Description:

When teenage beachnik Daisy Clover (Natalie Wood) is discovered by a Hollywood studio, she has no idea how much her life is about to change. Daisy instantly becomes a big movie star, going from rags to riches and enjoying such perks as Hollywood parties and a romance with a handsome actor. But with stardom comes turmoil in the form of career pressures, personal problems, and a disastrous marriage. Soon it all becomes too much for the actress, and less than two years after becoming famous, Daisy has a nervous breakdown. Will Daisy rebound from her emotional collapse and stay in Hollywood' Or will she rethink her life and leave Tinseltown for good' A successful child actor herself, Natalie Wood brings genuine feeling and depth of experience to Daisy Clover, a character modeled on such 1930s and '40s stars as Shirley Temple and Elizabeth Taylor. Roddy McDowall, another child star of the '40s, is featured, and Robert Redford, in one of his first roles, plays the Hollywood heartthrob a few years before he acquired that status in real life.
