Justin Henry


Happy Birthday to

Justin Henry

39 today


I had thought of just putting Justin picture up and asking you to guess who he is, but that's a little unfair for the former child star, now active character actor. Luckily the over-cherubic element of his face and posture, as witnessed in 1979's Kramer vs. Kramer, have largely disappearred so Henry is able to take a role in "Brothers and Sisters" without too much attention.

He sort of looks like Elton John in this photo! Recalling a charming story of his year at the Oscars for "Kramer"...apparently, he was the youngest nominee, who lost to Melvyn Douglas, who was the oldest nominee....

Now you mention it there is a resemblance.

Great piece of trivia too.

I can tell you first hand that he is most definitely NOT gay... and this pic does him no justice. He's a beautiful man with an amazing soul and if that's the trade-off for not being a child star turned dysfunctional adult, then I'll take it.

Hello Anonymous and thank you for your comment.

I was certainly not trying to imply any comments about Justin Henry's sexuality (I'm gay but most of the actors and films I talk about are not).

I'm also sure he is a wonderful man who's managed the transition from child star to adult actor in a sensible and exceptional way.

If you know him please apologise for any offence I may have inadvertently caused, after all I just wanted to wish him happy birthday.
