Trademark:

A character in his screenplay is technologically dependent but is cast into a situation where he must rely on his instincts and intuition, rather than his technical know-how ( Cast Away, Apollo 13, Planet of the Apes). This is based on his experience as a Marine infantry lieutenant in Vietnam. See more »
