Celebrity Death - Brad Renfro - January 15, 2008



Brad Renfro - January 15, 2007

The only film Ftang! saw Brad Renfro in was 'Apt Pupil.' The premise has to be absorbed with a huge suspension of disbelief: a teenager discovers an ex-Nazi concentration camp commander living in his suburban neighborhood. He confronts the old man and threatens to expose him unless he will agree to tell him everything he can remember about the atrocities of the war. Their relationship becomes increasingly complex as it is corrupted by the evil within each of them. While not exactly the world’s greatest film, there are a number of good scenes. Most especially the final scene between Renfro and his guidance councilor, David Schwimmer.
