The story of the hero in Cast Away and his former love reminds me of a Hollywood story I read somewhere. Alan Ladd and June Allison were very attracted to each other when they were filming a movie back in the early 50s. Both were married and wanted to stay that way. So by their choice, they never worked together again. If true, it is one heck of a contrast to most in Hollywood. Hell, it is a contrast to darn near anywhere.

Alan Ladd must have been a tear freak. June Allison was best known for sobbing gallons of tears on cue. I don't think I've ever seen a June Allison flick where she didn't sob rivers of tears.
