- Kye 5y agoThis supports my point. I haven't googled all of them, but a random sample all wanted to go into acting, or at least don't recount the experience in a way that suggests the kind of pressure I'm talking about. IMDB lists 31.4 million actors and 20.3 million actresses. I don't think your short list of actors says much about the whole range of experiences.
- fastball 5y ago> I don't think your short list of actors says much about the whole range of experiences. And you think your even more anecdotal and even more vague "I haven't heard many positive stories from former child actors who talk about their experiences" does?
