Uma Thurman Misses Natasha Richardson

Uma ThurmanUma Thurman has described the death of her pal Natasha Richardson as a big “loss” in her life.

The actress says she misses being a “passenger” in Richardson’s driven world.

“She [Natasha] would have a plan on arrival anywhere and would be carving the best out of life and every situation and every person,” Thurman tells the July issue of Britain’s Harper’s Bazaar. “She wasn’t as much a passenger as I am, which made us great companions in life … because every driver needs a passenger … and every passenger needs a driver. So it’s a big loss in my life.”

Richardson, 45, died earlier this year after a freak skiing accident.

Thurman says Richardson’s death inspired her to make sure she lives her life to its fullest.

“Isn’t life amazing? Isn’t life full of surprises? When it comes to things like marriage, you just never know,” added Uma, who is currently readying for a London wedding to British tycoon/philanthropist Arki Busson.

“I find that growing up has been all about realizing that life gets more serious, and that it’s also really important to increase your sense of humor.”

“I would buy a country house in virtually every country in the world if I could,” she added. “I also want a country house in Italy, France, Switzerland; I have aspirations in Mexico …. virtually all coastal regions. I just have this constant curiosity to open a clam in every country and eat the squirming things from every shore.”
