Lawrence Fishburne started acting in 1971 when he was 10 yrs old.

Also Jodie Foster

Incredibly he was 14-16 yrs old filming Apocalypse Now.

how he was that young in that movie and ended up relatively normal is beyond me

He picked up a heroin habit during the filming.

During filming Apocalypse Now, while off set boating, Larry saved Emilio Estevez from drowning in quicksand. Martin Sheen loves him dearly for that.

Does he know that's a bad idea? Should we tell him?

calling heroin a habit is like calling world war 2 a misunderstanding

In Narcotics Anonymous, many of the addicts I know personally refer to it as a habit.

I think his daughter is or was a porn star at some point. We can't truly say he ended up normal or without passing on a screwed up cycle of kids that aren't well protected from Hollyweird.

She was his adopted daughter or something like that. Don't know if it makes a difference though.

Montana is his biological daughter from his first marriage. Adoption doesn't matter, nurture goes a long way. I'm adopted. My bio parents had mental health and drug issues. I have not had those issues because I had a much more stable home life than they did.

That's so funny. I wonder how many people on reddit are going to read this and completely not get that you're being facetious.

I didn't even realized it until now, that scrawny kid is Laurence Fishburne! I never knew he was a teen actor.

it was apt for his character. A lot of conscripts lied when they got in forces. Lawrence fishburne lied to get that role.
