Pieces of my heart November 28, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is an excellent book written from the heart and his love for Natalie. All the scandal as I remembered it back when Natalie died and I read all the "scandal sheets of that time period" was the "how did it really happen". He answers it as honestly as he can from his heart.
Natasha, Natalie's daughter looks so much like her its spooky.
I thoughly enjoyed the book and was sorry it ended.
A Perfect Memoir November 27, 2008

To say that Robert Wagner's new memoir, PIECES OF MY HEART, is a perfect movie-star memoir is not giving it enough credit. PIECES is a perfect memoir by any standard.
I always have read lots of biographies and memoirs, and this book is singular. Just in the recent months, Tony Curtis has ended up sounding dislikeable in his own book, and George Hamilton came off as nice but rather eccentric.
In contrast, Robert Wagner has lived a true movie-star life, starting at the end of the studio system in Hollywood and continuing right up to the present moment.
As such, he has wonderful stories to share about all of the show business greats of the past half-century and he doesn't hesitate to drop names.
He is a man who treasures his friendships, proving that, even among movie-stars, one must be a friend to have a friend.
The book deals with complete candor about his love affairs. He goes into detail about his intense relationship with the late and exquisitely beautiful Natalie Wood, who was both his first and third wife, out of his four marriages. Wagner is frank about the tragedy of her accidental death and the pain he endured, and still endures, to this day because of it.
At the same time, he is grateful to Jill St. John, his fourth wife, to whom he gives some credit for rescuing him from his sorrow.
Most of all, Robert Wagner appears to have been forged by fire, much like steel, emerging from the flames stronger. As a result, strikingly, he seems to be an unusually kind person, emotionally aware, appreciative of his good fortune, generous to others. The fact that he could build and sustain a blended family with his stepsons from his second marriage and Natalie's daughter from her second marriage along with his own daughters is further proof of his decency and ability to love.
Despite his obvious glamour, Robert Wagner not a typical movie star and his life story makes for fascinating reading.
 It reads like... November 26, 2008

...a personal vision of Hollywood through the eyes of a third rate actor who is a legend in his own mind. Filled with the coarsest language this side of an old Jacqueline Susann novel. This poorly written mish mash of fact and fiction is nothing more than damage control for the years when Mr. Wagner and his present wife turned their backs on his late wife's (legendary actress, Natalie Wood) fans. It's a heterosexual kiss and tell from only Mr. Wagner's side as most of the ladies he alleges to have had affairs with are either dead or too old and rich to care anymore.
I expected better from him, much better!

A wonderful account of his life and questions you might have had about his life with Natalie etc. It is a warm and delightful read. One I will keep in my library. Some of the photos are from his personal collection. Enjoyed every minute.
