Possession: The Murder of Rebecca Schaeffer
Shownotes
Success can be a double-edged sword, particularly if it puts you in the public eye. There are a lot of strange people in the world, and the most innocuous comments or behaviors can create an imaginary thread of connection between you and them. If you’re an actor playing roles designed to be attractive and fun, the problem can be even worse, because not everyone is good at separating fantasy from reality. These imagined connections can lead to obsession, and obsession can in turn lead to some very dark places.
