In Search Of
Searching for self and values describes the story line. This is a glimpse of a typical small USA town of the 1970's: poverty, few jobs, lack of values, no appreciation for the returning Vietnam Veteran. The carousel represents an America that is long past and only the soldier cares enough to try to resurrect that past. No one else seems to really care much about anything. It is a good, but sad, story. There is something terribly wrong with the sound which makes it difficult to hear some of the dialog.
