I met Edward in 1995. I had a classmate in high school that her sister had serious health issues and she had a crush for Edward. The family was able to contact Edward and he came to visit the ill girl and spent time with her and the family for a day. She ended up passing away later. He seemed to be a very simple teenager who was down to earth. I give him a lot of respect for taking the time to spend time with the girl before she passed.
Ed Furlong is like the kid you knew in grade school and junior high who was the coolest kid on the planet, then you see him at your 10 year reunion and you're thankful you weren't as cool as he was.
He still is cool. He reminds me so much of Brad Renfo. They both had raw, natural acting abilities, came from poor, broken homes, both handsome as hell, both plucked from obscurity as kids to be the lead in a gigantic film and both addicts. I only wish Brad was still with us and I’m glad Eddie is.
Whether Edward makes a big Hollywood comeback, a return to John Connor, or never acts in another movie again, so long as he’s sober and happy with who he is is the most important thing of all. We love ya Eddie. Stay healthy and stay true to yourself. Brainscan forever!
@@chrisfreimiller4878 these days, they could write it off like the bullet grazed him and he went into shock. Or they retcon the ending and have him Jason Bourne the kid in the bathroom. Of course that would be ridiculous but like you said, who knows? I think AHX is perfect the way it is and should not be messed with. It’s a good flick, a little heavy handed with the white supremacy > street gangs in the street violence department but the message is clear and true. All of these gangs, clubs, cliques are a joke and all they do is cloud your thinking and make you what they want you to be and not your own person.
@@FunkyGOB one of the best movies ever made. Everyone I've known Black white Mexican have liked it. Was locked up when it first aired on USA even the Muslims was liking it.
I agree! T2 is one of the best sequels ever made and American History X is a cult classic. I probably love AHX even more than T2, it's one of those films I never get tired of watching. It's hard hitting, heart warming, heart breaking and devastating all rolled into one.
@@purefoldnz3070 Eddie was slated to play the role, but turned it down to stay in L.A. because he did not want to be away while he was fighting for shared custody of his son.
Actually we don't have to judge anyone without moving into his/her shoes. And believe me we can't move into anyone's shoes and we can't even imagine the pain inside the person's life.
@CK1 does it hurt so much to see the women he dates get broken by him - emotionally, spiritually, physically? because you should care as much about them as you do about him.
William Holden was in Texas 1941 with don deddoe Glenn Ford Edgar Buchanan Edmund cobb James flavin Joseph Crehan Raymond Hatton jack tornek clem bevans Kermit Maynard Fred Aldrich Arthur loft jack Ingram
Yea.. a lot of his preformance in T2 .. is not really him acting, but rather him being him... and well. the life after i would supose is a effect of that.
I agree, he was blatantly abused by a woman peadophile and who knows what other predators. I'm having a hard time wondering why a 28yr old woman would be doing that to a 15yr old child! it's no wonder he couldn't have proper relationships and turned to drugs when the realisation hit that he was exploited!
@@mrswolf3084 either ephebophilia but I think it's highly likely it's a control thing and not an attraction thing. A 15 yo is very impressionable especially when it's an adult manipulating them. It's kinda like when Edgar Allan Poe married his young cousin because the cousin was so young that she would worship everything he did while women his age would right away notice he wasn't a catch in the state he was in.
I met Edward at Pleasure Island 10 Movie Theatres, while watching T2 he was directly in front of me with his uncle. During the opening credits he and his uncle were clapping four fingers together quietly for James Cameron and Arnold. When the film finished they both got up turning to face me and I told him he did an awesome job. I asked for an autograph and he was more than happy too, such nice person. What are the chances of being in a Florida AMC Theater and watching a movie with the actor right in front of you? Thursday July 18 1991 10:10pm showing still have my ticket and Reel Reviews that he signed Eddie Furlong.
I think it’s quite ironic and sad that he was being judged for his past domestic issues while he was sexually assaulted by an adult as a child and she gets off Scott free.
I honestly feel bad for him. He got a bad hand delt to him and was groomed in the public eye and everyone just let it happen. And have the nerve to ask what happened. It's sick
His Uncle and Aunt didn't let it happen, tried as they might, Edward was unfortunately too young to understand the potential repercussions and psychological damage he was allowing himself to get involved in. He was asked point blank if he was in love and his answer was an over-the-moon "yes". He could've walked away at any time he wanted, but chose not to. Ultimately, everything that followed after was his own doing. Unless people were literally forcing him to take drugs along the way. Despite that, I also feel bad for him. Had no idea when he performed Terminator 2 he was literally fresh meat on the chopping block. Never saw another movie he was in, and now I know why. Hollywood is disgusting.
I think Edward is proof that good looks, money and fame doesn't equal happiness. He was literally one of the most handsome and talented actors in the world yet faced such struggles with himself
childhood looks arent the same as when you start to become an adult. he honestly seemed like he had low T and kind of awkward, and im sure that gave him insecurity and influenced his drug use
*The fact that Edward Furlong was NOT a trained actor during T2....is what I feel MADE HIM GREAT!!* Playing a kid that was dysfunctional was natural for him, he was believable and relatable. A fresh face and interesting. Had they used someone we had seen in other roles, i.e. Macaulay Culkin or Elijah Wood...it wouldn't have worked. It would have put a spotlight on them in that role, "Awe the kid from Home Alone is in the new Terminator.." would have been a bad pick.
It's hard to believe that "Judgment Day" was Edward's first big role, he possessed so much talent from a young age. It's also crazy that he was groomed by his older tutor, who was thirteen years his senior, when he was only 15!😱
And they got together a short time before the State of California declared that women can tried for statutory rape. That law didn’t come into effect until 1994.
I had the biggest crush on Edward furlong when I was 12 to 14 years old . I think he was a natural actor and could have been even bigger had he been able to fight all the bad things that come with fame and money . Praying for him. And that poor scared boy deep down inside him.
It’s so weird how nobody said anything to Edward about his relationship with that woman. Maybe this family tried to intervene but still she shouldn’t have been able to get away that. Edward had the potential to become a great young actor; He’s truly talented but nobody guided him in the right direction. Great video!
His aunt and uncle (who were his guardians) were not happy about it and actually filed a complaint against her, but nothing came of it. He moved out of their house and in with her.
I think your conclusion, while thoughtful, misses the point: the big "what if" isn't whether or not he was scooped out of a normal life, but what if someone, anyone, had stepped in to protect him from a goddamn predator. That sort of grooming and sexual abuse can stunt a person for life.
If the genders were swapped and it was a 29 year old man dating a 15 year old starlet, things would have been very different, it's a bullshit double standard that happens because a 29 year old woman grooming a 15 year old boy is no less sickening.
@@TarkynZone the acknowledgement of sexual abuse of children by women, especially teenaged boys, by adult women is a huge problem of society. There are actually a lot of films romanticising such "relationships". I think it was and still is a common way of thinking to regard such a boy as "lucky". And I also believe that this has to do with the way men see their own role and the role of a woman in society. This perspective is so narrowed and also stilted, it simply does not allow the acceptance of the victimisation of males by females.
I was only 4 and my babysitter did that to me. And then I never really thought about it again until I was 15 and came to realise just how much this messed me up. I felt I had an invisible target on me. I was abused my two men at crucial moments of my childhood after the female incident. I became a chronic H addict and it took 18 years of hell to break those chains on my life. Im not afraid to share my story now and have learnt how to associate love with sex. For years I couldn’t. I still haven’t been able to have the one thing I long for, to be married and have someone I can love. But I haven’t lost hope that it will happen. Anyway that’s my contribution. Good bless you all.
@suki suki I am female too. What you are saying about JB is absolutly disgusting. He looked like a Baby when he startet and never, no way in the world I'd have thought adult women would be fancying him. Disgusting. 😨
i met him and monica at a sex podcast/show called dr. suzy’s in 2012. i could tell they were both strung out as fuck but it was kinda fun, i had a crush on him when i was 10 from T2, but ya he was very bloated and sad looking. and monica was way way too skinny. both had sunken eyes. ya hope they are both better.
I don't think "he's" really a male. Forget what you think you know and REALLY look at the face in those video clips, especiallyat 15:05. 😒Hollywood is a weird place and gender reassignment is not a new thing 🤷🏽♂️just saying
In my country people that shit on successful people in, mainly sport, is called "Tall Poppy Syndrome". Instead of giving credit where it's due & supporting that person the media constantly puts that person down, trying to find anything on that person to humiliate them, even to the point that the media turn the public's opinion away their achievements & instead hate the person. Jealousy is a horrendously evil part of a person, it's not becoming at all
Whatever one may say about his problems with addiction and domestic violence, there's no doubting that he's been an accomplished person. Thank you, Edward. To me, you'll always be the one and only John Connor.
He reminds me so much of Brad Renfo. They both had raw, natural acting abilities, came from poor, broken homes, both handsome as hell, both plucked from obscurity as kids to be the lead in a gigantic film and both addicts. I only wish Brad was still with us and I’m glad Eddie is.
Brad and I were born on the exact same day. I literally think about him every year on my birthday. It’s crazy that he died so young. We would be turning 40 together this year.
If they start in their 20s, it seems like they get to stay in Hollywood even longer provided they don't let it all get to their head. There are quite a few 'sex symbols' from their 20s who are now relatively mature 30 and 40 somethings. Yes, there were some who started in their 20s that ended up crashing and burning. But, numerous actors and actresses, like Furlong, who starred in big blockbusters as young kids have really gone away more so than stayed the course.
There are very few sane actors. Lying for a living takes it's toll. Just look at Will 'Unhinged Psychopath' Smith. Usually need to be a decent stand up comedian or musician if you wanna keep your head in Hollyweird. Most actors including Will are neither of those things. They can't take criticism. They're unstable. Oh yeah and don't be a kid. Acting is very risky. You could go insane lying all day.
@@nicaalex6062ind of ironic because Macaulay Culkin was actually considered for the role of John Connor but his parents refused because of all the swearing John does. So the role was passed on given to Edward Furlong.
I have always loved Eddie Furlong and I believe he, just as anyone else, is deserving of a chance at redemption. By that, I mean we should always be understanding and hopeful for him to do well again. He deserves it. We all do.
Man, Edward Furlong was probably the biggest let down in movie history, he could have been one of the biggest A* along with Leonardo DiCaprio, Johnny Depp and such. I can understand that you go rebel once in a while with alcohol and drugs and such when young, but what strikes me the most with Furlong is his lack in motivation to make a comeback, ever. It's like he chose to party all his life long, to never do anything else. I never took him for that kind of guy. It's understandable that it might not be fun being approached and looked at as a cute child star, but Edward out of them all had a chance to actually be taken seriously as his career would have progressed. Due to his presence in Terminator and the American History X, he had the chance to choose his career slowly and wisely to make the big bucks, but also starring in the movies that actually had some quality to them, a chance to become an A* for the rest of his life. Even if he didn't like fame or whatever, it's sad that he doesn't respect the art of acting more. Johnny Depp for example do not fancy fame, he can't even look at himself in movies, but he finds motivation in the work of the art work and creativity, it's a shame Edward Furlong didn't find that.
@@karlkarlsson9126 It’s never too late. He could clean up and bounce back if he so chooses. Have faith, my friend. People need you love the most when they deserve it the least.
His girlfriend preyed on him when he was a small child, so forgive me for not having any sympathy for her when when the kid she groomed later attacked her. Maybe next time she’ll think twice before she pursues a teenager
Yeah I don't either have any sympathy for her, she groomed and manipulated him when his brain was not fully developed, so good on him. That said of course no excuse for attacking other partners later when he was an adult. But what that woman did to him and maybe some Hollywood predators too really explains lot of his behavior, I feel so bad for him and hope that he has got help now.
please stop being politically correct. Sure an adult playing with teenagers isn't right, but it happens all the time. I can remember in high school moms picking up high school football players to play with. It's not the same with guys. The problems he had were from his major drug use, not dating some cute older lady who he got to have sex with, every high school boys dream. Even as a teen he's physically bigger and stronger than her, nothing she did was against his will. Nothing my friends did was against their will when they partied at the beach every weekend or spent the night with married moms who wanted some fun away from home once in a while. Just silly laughable junk. Drugs ruined his life, not sleeping with a cute lady.
@@eolsunder This is not being politically correct. This about pointing out the problem that has been overlooked by society forever and perpetuated by the likes of you. It was consensual alright but if the gender roles were reversed even when it was consensual, would you still feel the same way? The likes of you would still blame the man (as it should be). Why can't you fathom in your head that this is far deeper than sex. It's the grooming, feeling of being used and the emotional manipulation that would surely destroy a growing boy. Don't undermine this just because you are unable to understand the serious damage it can cause to a victim in the long run.
I had no idea T2 was Edward's first movie. Honestly awesome, considering not only how much of a classic it is, but how good he is in it. His voice cracking didn't seem like a problem to me, either. A moment where reality fits a character. Brainscan is still one of my favorite movies of all time, for some reason.
Edward is my hero. He found his way out of the mess he was in with heroin and I'm trying to do the same after 21 years of use, I turned 40 this year, and it's been a long road. Ed recently got beautiful new set of teeth, all on 4 peg type, which I'm hoping to get to as mine our gone. Much love Ed. Congrats on your 3 years and running sobriety!
I saw the video where he got his new teeth. I wish you the best on your own sobriety too. I was an alcoholic for 20 years and I quit 5 years ago. Also, we are the same age. :) You got this. Don't give up!
I worked with him on a show years ago. He was a very funny, wonderful person...and SUPER damn talented. He had his drug or alcohol issues then unfortunately, I really hope he'd get a comeback someday though!
He deserves a second chance and a major comeback! Hopefully to see him in more films in theaters or Netflix, but as long as he’s healthy and happy is all that matters. Love him! Stay strong❤❤
I've loved every movie I've seen Edward in. He was a staple actor for me in my youth, I love his movies. T2, Pet Semetary 2, American History X..etc. He's only a few years older than me so he was a very relatable persona for my imagination to live through the stories being told. Thank you for the memories and moments Edward.
I have heard this a lot over the years and I disagree. I think Furlong acted circles around Norton in that movie. Norton did his best with the role, but just isn't believable. If you don't believe me, watch it again. Every scene where Norton gets the most credit, or is the most memorable, are all about the cinematography and, usually, slomo. He does fine, but Furlong's performance is so believable, raw and genuine, it can't be surpassed.

@@dougdupont6134 am i missing something? edwards character didn't really have to do much difficult acting in that film his character was rather emotionless, im not really sure why people keep talking about his performance it seemed pretty standard to me. can't think of any particular stand out acting moments from him?
@@sponish0 I'd have to guess it seemed that way because it wasn't garish. He played a believably intelligent street thug who has a change of heart about his fundamental beliefs in only a day or two. To stand your ground against a gang member in a bathroom, and play airplane with your kid sister who you love as the same character in the same movie and have neither of them feel at all like acting is a daunting task that few actors ever face. I've known some kids from the streets who were smarter than you'd expect who were struggling in vain to live a better life and he fucking nailed it. I'll grant that he was probably playing himself, and thus not acting so much as Ed Norton was, but I believe his performance implicitly.
No one ever rocked their hair like Eddie in T2. My first real crush as a kid. Gorgeous! And an amazing actor. I love him in T2, a Home of our Own, Detroit Rock City, American History X, American Heart, all of it.
He such a great and genuine actor. He did many iconic role and amazing movies of his generation, especially in T2, he's perfect and brilliant for the role of John Connor. I still have a soft spot for Edward Furlong, glad to see him doing well and wish him great happiness!
It looks like he is turning his life around, i hope he can do it. Drug addiction appears to be in his family, and as a child start he must have been stressed and overwhelmed. I really hope he can continue staying out of trouble, not only for his own health but for his kids. If he never had these problems, would we have seen him reprise the role in each movie? Possible avoided the child killing one.
William Holden was in the dark past 1948 with lee j cobb berry Kroeger Steven geray Robert Williams Selmer Jackson directed by Rudolph mate produced by e Maurice Adler
He did more awesome films in a decade, than most people do in their careers. Brainscan and Animal Factory are two very underappreciated films that he did during that time. Both of them are great films.
I worked with Furlong on Animal Factory. He was one of the nicest guys Ive ever worked with but was akso a HUGE pain in the ass. At that time I his girlfriend was Natasha Lyonne who was also a heroin addict. When she didnt come to visit on set Furlong was an absolute pro. It was a really low budget film directed by Steve Buscemi that was being shot in a real prison. Furlong was acting next to Willem Dafoe who is extremely professional but also demands the same from hia co-stars he shares screentime with. During the first 2 weeks we couldnt have gotten a better performance from Furlong. He came in ready to act and just nailed scene after scene after scene. We were easily making our days in a very tough and condensed shooting schedule. Then Lyonne came to visit one week and that was it. It was a different Furlong. Late to set, late for call, missed call times, didnt know his lines and honestly didnt give a shit about the film. At one point he refused to come out of his hotel room because he claimed "his girlfriend's aunt's roommate's cat died" and he was so devastated that he couldn't get into character. He wouldnt answer his door and rarely answered his room phone. The only way we knew he was there was because we'd see his assistant coming in and out with food and beverages (and who knows what else) at random hours of the day. Buscemi gave him every ounce of sympathy he could but when this dragged out for 3 days somebody on the set had the idea to tell him that we were going to call the police to see if he was okay . This worked and Furlong was back on set. He was there but he wasnt there. I can still watch the film and know which scenes were which, the ones we got from the first 2 weeks when he was on point or the last 2 weeks when he was on drugs and had mentally checked out. It didnt necessarily ruin the film but it didnt help his career either.
I was literally just asking myself this exact same question! This channel is legitimately an encyclopedia of “what happened to” movie video essays Also low key glad he’s still alive at the least
Another similar story was Brad Renfro who was just found for The Client. Also went down the road of drugs, weight gain, but he unfortunately passed away in 2008. Eddie had a couple of good movies in his filmography. He just looks so worn out now. It’s kinda sad.
I definitely hope he does because the guy is only about 45 years old right now. Not too many people get the experience of being thrust into fame the way that he did. Just the fact that a 28-year-old was dating him when he was 15 is pretty messed up. But you can’t deny the guy was talented. I think his acting in American history X definitely shows that.
I had the biggest crush on him when I was a kid. I didn't realize we're basically the same age. I think his childhood trauma is what makes him such a great actor. I hope he's on his healing journey now.
Saddening, hope the best for him regarding his health and his path in life. He doesn’t have to be successful in the film industry again in order to be successful in life again. One major oversight this video had missed, which would explain why his acting career will forever be different from his younger days, is that his brain is almost completely fried from all the heavy drug use. All your sound bytes of FUR-long (not fear-long) are of him when he was way younger and his facilities were sharp. For those not quite understanding, just listen to any of his interviews recently, or anything past 2018, and you can tell how hard the drug usage has damaged his basic cognitive display and expression. It’s sad, but seriously, hope he finds and maintains happiness in his life.
My husband's uncle works for the BMW dealership in Beverly Hills, and has for many years. Among many of the celebrities he's met while working there, Edward Furlong was among them. I asked him what he was like. He just shook his head and gestured injecting himself with a needle into his arm. Very sad.
Eddie celebrated 4byears sobriety last month. He is a genuine considerate and sweet person. He is also a very good grandson. Even when he was using he was nice. Being molested for years by y5our 29 year old teacher starting when he was 15 years old, seems to be forgotten. Peeps just remember his drug addiction and issues with women. I wonder how that came about Jackie Domac?
Type 2 diabetes is a terrible affliction, your husband's sister's friend's hairdresser's second cousin once removed's tailor's car mechanic's horse shouldn't be so callous.
Pretty insane to be hanging out at a boys & girls club to be plucked and dropped into one of the biggest movies of all time. I actually love Brainscan, I watched it the other day, been years since I seen it.
Brainscan yes. I remember seeing Trickster and hearing the burglary music. I tell you I just shit my pants. No really, just now when I typed "Trickster"..i shit my pants.
He used to come to my work in Sherman Oaks once in awhile. He was super cool and down to earth. We had so many celebrities come to my work and he was amongst the nicest. Funnily enough his “dad” Michael Biehn would come there too. Another sweetheart. And still one of the handsomest dudes I’ve ever seen!! This was back in 2008/9
Those squeaks in his voice and imperfections surely made terminator 2 a great movie. It felt slightly authentic. But then again I grew up through it. I’m partial to Edward he’s a great actor. This woman definitely took advantage of him. This prolly affected him… And it’s fur-long lol 😝
I met him on the set of 'Darfur' . He was a blast!! . Fantastic , eccentric , completely goofy . I loved him . I would greet him in the morning with "Eddieee" and he would grin behind his Red Bull 😁. I actually miss him .
@@matthewschwartz6607 He was . It was a good shoot . Intimate . I especially enjoyed Hakiem Ka Kaziem . Somebody I had worked with before on the 'Fresca' commercials. I have so many great stories of that shoot ...and some I cannot share but one of the most amusing episodes was with the 'baby impaling' scene where a rubber baby was to mounted on top of a stake. Gruesome scene , and one that we all knew would be cut from the final edit , however , the rubber prop which is extremely expensive and specialized kept flopping its head over and tearing off before the actors could perform their morbid act . Uwe Bol was always "more blood" "..more blood" and by the end of the day we were all covered in blood gathering pieces of a dismembered rubber baby . Bitching to ourselves "They're gonna cut this fucking scene anyway" We kakked off but had a lot of fun . One night some of us took one of the rubber corpses and pranked the locals at the nearby pub . You could only tell it was fake by poking it with your finger. 😆
"In 2006 Edward Furlong would sign on to reprise his iconic role of John Connor in the highly anticipated sequel, Terminator 3..." Kinda hard to sign on for that role in 2006 when the movie was released during the summer of 2003. You also really butchered the pronunciation of his name.
Imagine kickstarting your career in one of the greatest films of all time, then struggled throughout your life afterwards, with other actors playing your character in sequels, and then you finally get the chance to come back almost 3 decades, later only to be killed off in the first scene?
Real Talk, that’s a great point thank you for mentioning that. Christian Bale’s the only one who came close in my opinion, Nick Stahl and Jason Clarke are great actors but were written as unsympathetic.
@@Broco1L I thought Stahl was decent, he even looks like Michael Biehn, so you could've convinced me he was his son. I like his story arc about wanting to ignore the future that is inevitable, before learning to accept that it's his responsibility. That being said, it still comes from a movie that made the last two movies feel pointless, so it's hard to say it's good Bale I thought was forgettable. He just kind of acted tough, and constantly said his name is "John Connor". On top of that, he's not even a leader. I think when Kyle Reese talked about how awesome John is, we kind of expected to see a badass warrior that led with absolute authority and inspiration, but that's not what we get. I guess he does say inspirational speeches, but that's not enough. I sort of get what the idea is, he still has a lot to learn, and he's not going to be the savior of the world immediately, but couldn't we have gotten the kind of person that Reese describes during the climax? Clarke was actually pretty good in the first 20 or so minutes when we see him in the future, he's more of what we expected him to be, but then they transformed him into a terminator, and all that good will he built up was gone. One of the many stupid choices in that crap show of a film. Of course, that's just what I think
@@captainvader921 I haven’t watched Terminator Salvation yet, so I can’t comment on Christian Bale’s performance. But you were spot on about Nick Stahl and Jason Clarke.
@@captainvader921 I sincerely appreciate you articulating that perfectly. I agree with your thoughts, you’ve given excellent examples for me to think about. Thank You :)
Nicholas Cage also has been stuck doing low brow films. But Nick still goes hard in the films. He definitely gets into character and it feels like he puts max effort into his characters. Just saying, something I noticed and respect
I had the biggest crush on Furlong. I saw this movie at the show 6 times it was incredible!!!! But reading about his life I got the sense he lacked guidance. And in Hollywood one needs parental guidance. We are the same age. It’s sad to see how things went downhill for him!!!
I’d love to see him comeback to movies. Even make an appearance in stranger things or something since it’s so nostalgic. I wanted to be this kid when I was younger.
Once you make a few bad decisions in life it can snowball on you and soon your life is in a very dark place. Hope he can find some peace and happiness.
Ed Furlong will always be one of my favorite actors and a hero for the fact he’s been able to really act under awful personal circumstances. Life did a lot of bad things to him. Don’t you think that domestic violence issues have to be related to him being abused by a woman? Drugs are often used to scape to a cruel reality and self destructive guilt feelings. I hope he gets a great script handed to him so he makes a great comeback. He deserves the chance.
I think what makes me so sick about Jacqueline Domac is that she would later work at Venice High School as a HEALTH TEACHER, with HIGH SCHOOLERS. And they just let that happen. No one got fired as a result. It's insane.
That’s really cool! What a special experience to share a moment with a genuine down to earth person, happy to take time for his fans. Thank you for sharing!
He reminded me so much of myself in T2 I'm a few years younger but I called my mom Sarah Conner all the time. That movie was so special to me. I hope he gets a comeback.
Yes Edward does have the talent he was great in terminator 2 and in American history x and in American heart I hope that he will make a comeback someday
Edward furlong is a master class in what happens to sexual assault victim, societies sick attitude towards boys and men being sexual violated by woman is disgusting.
Society thinks it’s “cute” when an older woman preys on young boys. Even though there’s no way I would call a grown woman and a 15 year old boy equals on any level.
@@reikun86 Not a chance, no way Edward was even close to the same level of maturity and understanding of adult relationships as his abuser. I remember hearing about that relationship when I was in my 20s and thinking that doesn't seem right.
This is such a well made video, it literally says all the points that needs to be SAID! Hollywood has f'ed up so many young actors / actresses mainly our well known childhood stars such as Edward and Macaulay Culkin. The things they have in common is that they both turned to drugs. The industry expected way too much from them at a young age and they didn't get to explore what it was like to live a normal childhood and let the fame get to them (in a bad way). With all the money they're making makes them do/get into all the wrong things instead of right. It didn't help with Edward being groomed as a child. It DEFIENTLY had something to do with his abuse to his ex girlfriends it probably rubbed off on him... so heart-breaking
I actually was the cinematographer on a really shitty stoner comedy called Deet n Bax Save the World that was suppose to star Edward Furlong. But when Furlong got to the set (two days late), he was fired by the next day because he showed up completely gacked out on morphine and trashing his hotel room the studio was paying for. At one point he leaned over to me to ask what scene we were filming because he didn't remember even getting to set. Incidentally he was recast by Jay Mewes. I have some of the footage of what we shot of him though.
"Cinemmatographer" huh? What gen iphone did you shoot that on. The movie looks like literal trash. From the perspective of how it was shot down to how bottom of the barrel the script and budget must've been.
@@robertfrost8264 I shot it on a black magic and shot it exactly how the director wanted it. I had zero say so in how it looked. It does look like shit. But I kinda feel like you're trying to shit on me for no reason.
Mannn, he was one of my childhood celebrity idols i looked up to, but fame and fortune got the best of him.. hope he turns it around mentally and physically
