But just who is to blame ?? The kid who wants to be famous ?? The company who wants to make them famous ?? The parents who push the kids to gain fame ?? Or the public who are always hungry for the 'next big thing' ?? But let's not forget the media, who love to help make stars, and then take great delight in helping to break them ?? Put that lot together, and what else can you expect when the kid 'goes crazy' ?? |

i think it's a little bit of everything. and also a lot of money coming in at once seems to make people go weird too. look at the big money lottery winners |

In my personal opinion, you kind of have to be slightly off to begin with, if your goal in life is to be recognized by everyone, or you encourage that behavior in a child Being an object of mass idolization is not a healthy aspiration. I figure even Jesus Christ could walk through a public square once in a while without anybody catching on. |

especially if you're an actor. no offence if anyone here is one. but to spend most of your time pretending to be other people strikes me as kind of odd. some people get wrapped up in their work and the line between real life & fantasy get blurry. like with jeremy brett, but he wasn't 100% sane to start with. |

Having said that, the Harry Potter kids have turned out ok. At least don't think have heard anything detrimental, which kinda proves that's it's not just fame and fortune that causes the problems. The kid's own attitudes have a lot to do with it - if they think they're oh sooo good, they'll behave in the same way, Bieber for example !! |

At the risk of sounding supercilious, I think there are differences between UK and North American culture that can explain this. Particularly attitudes towards success- in America if you're successful it's because you're the best, in the UK if you're successful it's because you got lucky (so don't let it go to your head!). |

^And ironically it's ever so certain that a large portion of American celebrities didn't become that way because they were the best Lucky yes, & more often they also got it because they were pretty, which explains a lot of the mutilation they do to themselves , for the sake of beauty, when the pretty begins to fade or stops working toward their success |

and I think part of it is just percentages. A certain percentage of 20 something are going to have problems. I also think there is nothing new about the fame/substance abuse thing. Jodi Foster has said she is glad no one was taking pictures of her in their 20s because she was doing the same sorts of thing.s |

There are at least 2 or 3 Jewish children who appear in Schindler's List that look exactly like a young Steven Spielberg. Some day I'm going to find screencaps of them & do a side by side comparison. It's uncanny, & eerie, that he felt he should include his own image among the persecuted extras. It's not something that anyone is even supposed to pick up on. If I hadn't posted his childhood photo in the celeb quiz game thread here I'd have missed it myself |

Well dunno for sure of course, but don't think Spielberg picked out the extras. The main characters yes, but the minor roles he'd leave to his casting director to fill, he just wouldn't have time to do it himself !! |

Unless he specifically wanted to have that in his film. I can't say for sure, but there are at least two kids that look just like he did, & he's a fairly unique looking guy. I lean toward thinking there was purposeful intent Certainly he can't hand pick every person in his film, but I guarantee that if a person's face is going to comprise a closeup shot in his film, he's familiar with it & is choosing to use it I'll have to find the pics someday. It's spooky |

In fact, they weren't extras at all. They're actual Schindler Jews, one of which had a fairly prominent role in the film as the little boy who has to hide in the outhouse. Had to watch the film over again to find them... and now I'm depressed ![]() Pictures of Steven Spielberg ![]() ![]() ![]() And now the two boys in the film ![]() Edward Spielman ![]() Olek Rosner |

The characters in the movie are Schindler Jews, whose names I added below. The pics are of the actors who portray them, that were cast for the film, & I assume he had to have had his hand in on that Edit: In fact, the littlest boy's screencap comes from the end of the movie when the actor escorts the real life person to Schindler's grave where they leave a stone on it. At the time of the film, Olek Rosner was still alive |
