In The Lost Mariner‚ the patient Jimmie‚ who was drafted into the Navy when he was seventeen years old‚ had been sent to Sack’s place because he was said to be "Helpless‚ demented‚ confused and disoriented". We find that he has a very bad

The first one he filled with clothes and books; the second with hundreds of photographs - faded memories of long-lost relatives gazing at us sadly. As I thumbed through

Steven Spielberg’s films: Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark‚ ET (The Extraterrestrial)‚ Hook‚ and Jurassic Park.
