The directorial debut of visionary filmmaker Terrence Malick, Badlands is often cited as one of the most influential films of all time, as well as one of the best debuts ever made.

It stars Martin Sheen and Sissy Spacek as a murderous runaway couple who flee across America in an attempt to start a new life.

Early in the movie, Spacek takes a moment to look out of her window, and sees two young boys playing around a lamppost. It's set during the dead of night, so it's admittedly hard to tell, but the boys were portrayed by Sheen's young sons Charlie Sheen and Emilio Estevez, long before their own careers as major Hollywood stars.

For both actors, Badlands was their first on-screen appearance, and kicked off a long-running tradition of the pair turning up to work alongside their legendary father.
