He had a lot of good movies. Field of Dreams, the one where he’s the catcher on some minor league team. The Russian spy working for our navy. Wasn’t he in Message in a Bottle?

yes he was in message in a bottle which had a terrible but predictable ending. reminds me of some pearls of wisdom passed down from my Grandma. Don’t dive in and try and rescue without a flotation device and without knowing how well you’re going to swim.

Swam on the college swim team? Could swim 100 laps a day? Don’t swim for 10 years. dive into the deep end of the pool and you know you’re going to drown if you don’t make it to the side walls in time.

In a panicked state of drowning, whoever you’re trying to rescue is going to grab on and give you the death hug trying to stay afloat with total disregard for you.
