Lay off the prognosticating, Rog.

Here’s a quote from Roger Ebert’s review of the 1986 classic Lucas, co-starring a budding talent by the name of Corey Haim:

Lucas is played by Corey Haim, who was Sally Field’s son in “Murphy’s Romance,” and he does not give one of those cute little boy performances that get on your nerves. He creates one of the most three-dimensional, complicated, interesting characters of any age in any recent movie. If he can continue to act this well, he will never become a half-forgotten child star, but will continue to grow into an important actor. He is that good.”

Oops.
