Lost Boys and The Client = “Joel T. Schumacher (born August 29, 1939) is an American film director, screenwriter, and producer... Known for casting young actors, Schumacher helped actors like Colin Farrell,[4] Kiefer Sutherland,[5] and Matthew McConaughey[6] to launch careers... Schumacher has been openly gay throughout most of his career.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joel_Schumacher
Brad Renfro - Another messed up child star who OD’d at age 25. “When he was ten, Renfro was discovered by Mali Finn, a casting director for Joel Schumacher” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brad_Renfro
“Pervert gay movie director Joel Schumacher sunk his fangs into young teen star Corey Haim in The Lost Boys and now Corey Haim is dead at 38. Despite the fact that perverted homosexual movie director Joel Schumacher has been described as a “sexual outlaw”, Hollywood continues to shake, shimy and bow to Schumacher.”
River Phoenix - another 80s child star who claimed to have been molested, had a troubled life and died young of an OD. Starred in Stand By Me with Feldman and a couple others who’ve been mentioned.

A deleted scene from The Godfather that can be found on the internet shows the young girl actress that Waltz is grooming, coming out of a bedroom and Robert Duvall sees her.
The mother hurriedly tells her to get back in there.
Made in 1972. Who was it based on? too many to count, I fear.
May have been part of the reason for the extreme “point” Vito Corleone made when he had the head of a million dollar horse cut off and dumped in Waltz’s bed.
According to what I've read, it's been going on since the nascent days of the early studios, none of this is new.
Harvey Weinstein has been getting away with sexual assault for decades - an "open secret" in Hollywood, and it was even written into his contract.
He must have pissed off someone very powerful for this to come to light after all these years.
According to TMZ:
HARVEY WEINSTEIN Contract with TWC ALLOWED FOR SEXUAL HARASSMENT
