Funny I should see this post cuz DH and I rented a DVD last night and one of the movie trailers on it was a new movie coming out with RD, Jr. in it

When I saw it I thought to myself "Good for him ~ he has managed to work a little. I've been wondering what was going on with him."

I think the movie is called "Gothica"? and it looked GREAT! Halle Berry is in as well.

From what I saw of him in the preview he looks good ~ a little older, but who doesnt look older after years of drug use? *LOL*

I was SO in love with RD, Jr. in the early and mid 80's when I was a teenager

We probably would have made a great pair, since we both turned out to be addicts NOT!

Poor guy. His struggle with addiction has been splashed all over news and TV. We are lucky in the respect that we dont have to have the entire world know about our troubles, dont you think?

I just read something on him that says that he is still sober 2 years and counting but is having a hard time working. apparently when you sign on to do a film you go through a physical and if everything is ok then you can have the part but the side of that is they have to get insurance on you in order for you to work and beacause of his past problems it is either too costly or insurance companys don't want to cover him. So sad to say he has lost quite a few leading role parts that were excellent movies. Maybe things will get better for him in the future and once he has been in recovery for a few more years. Mo
