Natalie Wood looked gorgeous in a bikini at a pool party in the 1960s.
Oh Carol, Carol! At the end of the 1969 film Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice, which tackled the themes of honesty and faithfulness in marriage, there was a more adventurous couple attempting to trade wives with their more conventional friends. When you find out that the attractive woman in a paisley bikini, Natalie Wood, is involved, the stakes suddenly seem a little greater. Wood played Carol, a lady determined to confess everything, even their illicit affairs, to her husband Bob (Robert Culp). Although Alice (Dyan Cannon) insisted on switching partners in one of those real-life movie-world cerebral exchanges, Ted (Elliott Gould) wasn’t too thrilled of the idea.

A Neighbor’s Amusing Reaction
What a heartwarming story of empathy and understanding during a time that often focuses on scares and spooky decorations! Salena Webb’s response is a beautiful reminder of how small acts of kindness can make a huge impact on those around us, especially during difficult times. It’s inspiring to see how she handled her neighbor’s request with grace, compassion, and creativity—replacing skeletons carrying a casket with badminton-playing skeletons is both clever and thoughtful.
While some people might feel torn between personal enjoyment of Halloween and sensitivity to others, Salena’s choice demonstrates that balancing our own traditions with kindness for others is always possible. Her thoughtful gesture, plus the extra touch of bringing her neighbor a card and balloons, shows how impactful small, empathetic actions can be in strengthening our communities.
This story also highlights that kindness and understanding are qualities that transcend any language barrier, showing how a little empathy can bring us all closer, even in the smallest ways. It’s a reminder that, as Salena said, “Kindness is free, and compassion goes a long way.”
