The application of earthly means brings down the illusion. It''s fun while the illusion lasts and as it is fun as it is explained and brought down. Having Promo fry was just icing on the cake.

Our hero was definitely not in his right mind. He was in turmoil------the constant crashing of the sea and thunder as he narrates are indicative of his mental state. And witnessing the odd, eerie spectacle of the shipwreck could almost be viewed as the wreck his life has become.\r\n\r\nIn regard to the treasure, a big part of the moral to the story, metaphorically speaking, is that Juliette and her love are the real treasure, not the box of jewels. He learns that obsession with material possesssions, and the pride that comes with that obsession, are a negative influence on his life--- so the treasure becomes a bad thing.Something to be avoided. He actually ends up recieving the true treasure in the form of his marriage to Juliette. Also, on a purely literal level, I imagine the whole experience was so horrific to him that he just didn''t want to have anything to do with that chest and whatever evil influences might still hover around it. It''s better to just leave some things lie.\r\n\r\nAt the end, I don''t believe the three characters'' reactions are meant to be explanations at all. Rather, they present alternate ways of viewing such a tale. Different people respond in different ways to frightening, painful situations in life. Not any one way is the absolute correct way: Some, as Juliette, just write such things off and deny them. Some see them as an evil influence, something negative. And some (perhaps the oldest and wisest) see the positive effects of even the darkest situations, taking away a valuable lesson and counting it as a blessing. These last two are sort of a "glass-half-empty / glass-half-full" scenario. So there''s not really a right answer, but choices. Which one is right? At the end, I think the narrator makes the healthiest and most positive choice, crediting it as personal redemption brought about by a guardian angel.\r\n\r\nAnd the two wounds, and no body to be found? Well, perhaps the creature was the narrator''s own dark and ugly inner self--the jealous, greedy thing hidden behind his handsome face which he struggles with and ultimately conquers. (Another example of his dark half is when he nearly killed the other boy during his childhood.) If the creature caused the wreck, maybe, on another level, the dark half of our hero''s personality made a wreck of his own life--a wreck which he, himself, must clean up.

Whenever they tried their hand at cutting edge, real-life dramas, they were never quite as successful.\r\n\r\nHaving said that, I couldn''t get into this one. I almost turned it off during the second act. The acting and production values were perfectly fine, very solid--in fact, they were the only thing that kept me from rating this a 1 instead of a 2. But the hijacking story just didn''t appeal to me. It didn''t seem to work well as a radio drama, nor did it have much dramatic subtlety. The unnecessary death of the pilot right at the beginning was frustrating and turned me off immediately. And as for the fanatical reverend with reefer madness...well, that was just plain silly.\r\n\r\nThe one aspect of the story that I did find somewhat interesting was the gunman Ham''s ambiguous loyalties, and the secretive dialogue that went on between Ham and Torres. It''s the only thing that kept me from turning off. Whereas the reverend was pretty much a one-note character, Ham''s character did suggest more subtlety and depth and I wondered what he might do next. That, plus Torres'' general likeability and ingenuity, kept me listening despite my dislike for the overall story.', '2013-03-24 22:25:21', 1, 'eef5c96b0d546bb8bf42836094c79755', '112.200.20.61'),

This program reminded me of this incident because it involved both a plane and a religious fanatic. I recall that a congressman and his delegation where gunned down when boarding a small aircraft after investigating the commune in Guyana. Also, in 1979 we all remember the American citizens that were taken hostage in Iran after religious fundamentalists assumed power.\r\n\r\nWith these two world events (both with a tone of religious fanatacism) on the minds or in the subconscious of many of us at the time this play was written, I wonder if the author was influenced to write this story.', '2013-03-23 18:14:04', 1, '9e21f9da7995f792876017aefc2232f1', '112.200.20.61'),

So I assume the author was very clear on the direction of plot and character.\r\nI think Vgarci is on the right trail looking at the events of the recent past prior to this story. With the the failed U.S. attempt to rescue the Iranian hostages (religious extremist) occurring just a couple of months prior to this show, maybe it was intended as a "good news" kind of story, and as I recall, we could have used one about then.\r\nLooking back, I cannot recall many CBSRMT stories that were directly ripped out of current headlines - most danced around the "core" of a story. I know it was supposed to be fiction, not "reality" radio, but that got me thinking about true stories that would have made interesting RMT fare. Here are a few I can remember that should have been made into RMT stories:\r\n1. Jim Jones "People''s Temple" story - Could have been an interesting character play demonstrating a powerful man''s plummet into paranoia. (Thanks Vgarci!)\r\n2.

(As I was getting ready to retire for the night after a busy July 4th two days ago, my daughter alerted me to the fact that there was a \\"Twilight Zone\\" marathon on so my night didn\\''t end until 2:00 pm. The show that was on was \\"The old man in the cave\\" starring the late James Coburn. I thought I was [i:c34e49a7de]watching[/i:c34e49a7de] a CBS RMT with all the familiar music that was playing, except I remember the TWZ was first to use this.)\r\n\r\nThe reason I bring up the music is that the last use of these same music beds on video I remember are the CBS late movies that used to be shown on weeknights. I remember watching them studying with friends from college. One I vividly remember featured William Shatner, and was entitled \\"Kingdom of the spiders\\". It was actually a fascinating movie, especially when you read about how they made the thing with loads of live tarantulas, but I digress.\r\n\r\nThere was a bunch of familiar TWZ/RMT music in that one, but in a pivotal scene with Shatner being attacked by (or rather, falling into a basement full of) tarantulas, there was a trumpet-and-drums \\"Curtains! This is it!\\" music bed I\\''d never heard used before on the RMT.\r\n\r\nThat was, until I re-listened to \\"You\\''re going to like Rodney\\". It (or rather, a part of it) is playing when Rodney does what he finally does to the kindly neighbor, who also seemed to deserve a better end.\r\n\r\n- What was most interesting about this episode was what you didn\\''t learn.\r\n\r\nWhat was in Rodney\\''s suitcase that he wouldn\\''t let anyone touch?\r\n\r\nDid he really have a butterfly collection?

He plays an understated, unflappable, and seemingly reluctant military officer who finds himself a POW on a Mac-run penal colony. “The prison uniform came in one size… wrong.â€  Lithgow provides a diary-like narration which then blends into individual incidents and dialogues that make up the story.  A large portion of the story is actually a flashback which makes the listener interested in what has resulted in Lithgow’s helpless current circumstance and how our hero will survive to someday see home again.  \r\n\r\nAlso strong are the minor roles of Major Gulliver’s (Lithgow’s) brothers-in-chains such as the nervous Sergeant Zilkowski, the bull-headed Corporal Klybourne, and the solitary-confinement-maddened Lieutenant Lamar Jackson: “Tell the boys to stay out of trouble, Major!

Roy, the investigative reporter''s interaction with nurse Polly is delightful.

Polly doesn''t seem to mind though: "Would you look at that... my glass is empty!"  To top it off though, Roy then seems to rebuff Polly when SHE gets frisky.  Elsewhere, Roy''s lonely overnight adventure in the desert makes the hair on my neck stand on end, and is reminiscent of Carlotta''s frightening experience in "End of the Rainbow".  The characters in Song are well-acted and likeable.  From Roy''s cranky boss to happy-go-lucky helicopter pilot Chadwick, Dann''s character development through dialogue is fantastic.

The story begins interestingly enough, as client Mr. Wilson describes his initiation into the Red-headed league.

Unfortunately, the details are muddled and couched in vaguery.  Worth a listen, if nothing else on the agenda for the evening.

Specifically, the hand-off in narration from Keane to Dryden is striking, represents a dramatic shift in the story from a woman elegantly searching the unknown depths of her heart (Keane) to a rather clumsy attempt to explain the injection of more absurd paranormal activity (Dryden).  Though wooden, the interplay between the retired stage actor (Keane) and her ghost admirer (Kristoffer Tabori) has a charming quality.

It''s actually masterful and contributes to the need for the listener to believe how weak the boarder has become, which is important in the last act.  The woman''s condemnation of a man because "he took the Lord''s name in vain" is delightful, and harkens me back to an era of values that has been lost today.  Writer Henry Slesar''s story fills the hour well and never drags.  Slesar''s ability to define characters well through dialogue is evident in "Old Ones" and becomes a hallmark of his masterful writing in subsequent stories.  You can listen to a great example of this character development in one of my top three favorite episodes of all time, "Murder Preferred" (#1103).  Throughout the CBSRMT series, my greatest enjoyment comes when the writing is such that we clearly understand the motives of a character and what makes them tick.  Even more masterful is when a writer (and of course the actor) accomplishes this while at the same time making the listener genuinely care about the character.

A major flaw in Wind is that the actress portraying Mona makes her very whiny and unlikeable.  Because the listener is not endeared to Mona, we cannot sympathize with this unbalanced and disagreeable woman’s plight.  Rather we just wish she would shut up and stop caterwauling.  In enduring this unpleasantness however (and also by paying attention to subtle details of this scene) the listener is rewarded with a second half of the episode in which Teri Keane shines as Kitty, jealous wife of Gary (Michael Tolan) who also puts in a heavy-duty performance as Kitty’s husband who slowly comes to grips with the subtle but significantly devious behavior of his wife.  Himan Brown stars as Lieutenant Hench.  Though uncredited, his radio-perfect voice, deep and rough, is unmistakable.  Wind gets 3 out of 5 stars.
