That movie could be interesting, but a difficult one to pull off. That story doesn't have a happy ending.

Does anything have a happy ending anymore? I just posted a comment on this site wishing them success with what could be a good historical lesson on our subject.
I especially want to support Caleb Stephens, author of Worst Seat in the House, on which the movie is based. Caleb is a Surratt member and spoke on his book several years ago at one of our conferences. Very nice man and able to bring history up-to-date by comparing Rathbone's experience with the current PTSD studies.
Two comments had already been posted referencing something called My Friend John as a good substitute. Has anyone heard of this?
