I could remix Cast Away, starring Tom Hanks, with video from my memory but keep the audio track to create an accurate and in sync autobiographical fim. You are probably the only one that can see the parallels clearly, Jackie.

But also:

Raoul Duke: “. . .Our energy would simply prevail. . .We had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave. So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill. . .and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark – -the place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.”

Have any of you found your story in a book or on the screen?

Jack: “For six weeks, I couldn’t sleep (I couldn’t sleep–I couldn’t sleep). . .”
