Reply To: What if Jack hadn’t been written as a movie star?

I did read where he was initially from another profession.  I would be interested to know what that was, but I believe a movie star fits well. Even though we all realize that famous people really are just people too, we typically don’t treat them the same way we would treat anyone else that we just met. Fame gives them the distinction of being different than the rest of us. That was a critical element in this particular story.
