Miscellanea
The NPR Playhouse announcer says,
You've been listening to Joe Frank, 'The Other Side'. This program was called 'Dreamland' [sic] with David Franks, William Reinert, and Grace Zabriskie, special thanks to Stanley. Production: J. C. Swiatek; production assistance: Esmé Gregson.
Who's Stanley? The homeless guy in the beginning? Who's William
Reinert? The loner? Or one of the guys from the tarot hotline? Reinert's only other credit is Streetwise - could he have been the 'homeless' person?
- Joe uses the music "Rock Hammer" (a cut from the score of Shawshank Redemption) in Dreamland: A Compilation; his character uses a rock hammer in Escape From Paradise.
