Alexa Kenin was a rising actress in the 1980s who starred in films like Little Darlings, Honkytonk Man (her first female lead part against Clint Eastwood) and Pretty in Pink which came out after she did.

She was 23 years old when she was found dead in her Manhattan apartment and nobody knows what happened. Rumors have swirled for years about the circumstances, though there’s never been an official account about what transpired.

Either way, Alexa Kenin was on her way up, she was bound to be a big movie star had she not died so young. She was a very good actress, could do comedy and drama and had presence onscreen. Very sad.
