I watched The Client when I was thirteen years old. I was just fascinated by the film's young debut star. I even watched the movie in French on a cruise ship. So while the following news isn't exactly a shock to me, it's still sad (via Defamer):
TMZ is reporting that Brad Renfro, star of Apt Pupil and The Client, passed away earlier today at his Los Angeles home at the age of 25. The cause of death is still unknown.
With the teen idols of my youth slowly dropping like flies, I must insist that someone inform me on the status of Joshua Jackson, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, Josh Hartnett, anyone beginning with J. I'm pretty sure Mr. Gordon-Levitt is still alive and kicking. And Joey Lawrence is almost as dedicated to fame-whoring as Mr. Singing Bee is. So those three should be okay
