Dream a Little Natty

I very seldom pass up the chance to meet a Disney celeb, and although the 1980’s saw the decline of quality live action films coming out of the studios, I’m a bit surprised at myself for passing up meeting Meredith Salenger when I had the chance at one of the Hollywood Shows back in the late 2000’s.

After her starring role as Sarah in the 1994 film The Crow, she dropped out of film, out of the public eye, and kind of out of any sense of a normal life. Even though The Crow was both commercially and critically wildly successful, it will always remain an notorious film due to the fact that Brandon Lee was accidentally killed while making it.
