About Judith Barsi in brief
Judith Eva Barsi was an American child actress of the 1980s. She appeared in the films Jaws: The Revenge, The Land Before Time and All Dogs Go to Heaven. Barsi and her mother, Maria, were killed in July 1988 as a result of a double murder–suicide perpetrated in their home by her father, József Barsi. Her father, an alcoholic, became increasingly angry and would routinely threaten to kill himself, his wife and daughter. He also hid a telegram informing Maria that a relative in Hungary had died, in an attempt to prevent her from leaving the United States with Judith.
In November 1989, Don Bluth, the director of both Jaws and The Land before Time, praised Barsi as being “absolutely astonishing” in her verbal direction, even for the most sophisticated situations. She was buried in Forest Lawn Memorial Park, in adjoining plots to her mother and her father’s former home in Panorama City, Los Angeles.
