Judith Barsi. The tragedy of a small actress

The young actress Judith Barsi has become famous for her roles in films and the sound of cartoons. A short but successful career of the girl was interrupted terribly by her own father ...

How it all began

Her parents were Hungarian refugees. At the age of 19, Jozsef Barshi (eventually a surname began to sound like Barcy) left his native country. He did not have parents, and he was very worried about this, trying to forget himself with the help of alcohol. In France, where a young man went in search of work, he married the countrywoman Clara.

In the marriage, the children were born - Barn and Aghi, stepbrother and sister Judith. In 1964 the family moved to the United States. Jozsef (Joseph) showed signs of aggression due to lack of finance. After another scandal, Clara took the children and left. Then I filed for divorce.

With my mother, Judith Joe met at the bar, where he played the violin. Maria Virovaţ was also born in Hungary, but she escaped from home because of her father's constant harassment.

Young people played a wedding, and on June 6, 1978 they had a daughter, Judith. She was a very beautiful girl, only growing quite slowly. Mom always dreamed of being an actress, but she could not realize her desires. And then I firmly decided to help my daughter to become famous in this sphere.

Small asterisk

In 1981, Maria recorded her daughter at the competition for young talents. The audience and the jury were simply fascinated by a three-year-old angel. She was smart, contagiously laughing and almost not capricious. After the competition, an advertising agent offered Judith's mother a job for her daughter - shooting in the advertisement of a famous brand.

For a few years the girl starred in 70 commercials. Also participated in the voice acting of cartoons "The Earth before the beginning of time" and "All the dogs are in paradise". On the air there were 4 TV projects with Judith Barsi. Films with her participation - "Eye of the Tiger", "St. Elsvere", "Jaws 4".

After 6 years, the producers obliged the mother of the girl to start taking medications that help normalize growth. This was necessary for further filming.

Tragedy

The glory of Barca grew at the same time as her fees. Soon the girl not only completely contained her parents, but she bought a big house. My father did not work anymore and began to drink even more. He was overcome by fear that his wife and daughter would leave, and he would lose the source of income.

An alarm bell rang in 1985. At a celebration in the house of a small star, Joseph got angry at the fact that his daughter was bathed in general attention. He took her to a distant room and hit her several times. The girl frightened nothing to anyone.

Judith and his mother planned to go to the shooting of the film "Jaws 4". The father threatened her daughter with brutal reprisals if she decided not to return home. At the same time, a knife was put to the girl's neck.

Agent Judith began to notice that something was amiss with her. The girl began to fall into tantrums, forget the words from the role and stopped smiling. In addition, due to nervous shock, Judith began to gain weight quickly, which had a negative impact on the career of the child.

Then Barsi was sent to a child psychologist who was horrified by the emotional state of the poor girl. The specialist sent a report to the service "Children Against Violence". After that, Judith's mother announced that she is filing for divorce. Later, she canceled her decision, explaining that Joseph would still find them and kill them.

Maria rented an apartment for her daughter at the other end of the city. There, the child spent all free from filming time for games with peers. Almost everyone advised the unfortunate woman to disappear with the child, but Maria did not want to destroy her dream of a stellar daughter.

July 25, 1988 came a terrible denouement of this story. On this day last seen live Judith Barsi. The cause of death is a bullet wound in the head region. The girl died in a dream.

Her mother was also found dead. According to the investigation, Joseph Barsi shot his daughter. Maria rushed to the noise, which tried to defend herself. But everything was in vain. Mentally ill person for three days was next to the bodies of native people. Then I poured them gasoline and burned them. Joseph was found in the garage. Apparently, realizing what he had done, the unfortunate man brought his life to an end.

Memory alive

Mother and daughter were buried with honor in a cemetery near Hollywood. In 1989, the last film with the participation of Judith Barsi appeared on the screens - "All the dogs are in paradise". The central musical theme of the whole picture "Love survives" was dedicated to a little actress, who tragically ended her life.

In 2004, fans of the talented girl installed a memorial with phrases from her favorite cartoon "Land Before Time", over which she worked during her lifetime.
