This passage from Sarah Orne Jewett’s “A White Heron,” takes us back down to memory lane and uses Sylvia’s climb to the top of the monumental pine tree to see the ocean as a metaphorical image to us, as adults, being able to achieve our wildest dreams for the future.

The first person to play the role of Marty Mcfly was Eric Stoltz’s. Crispin Glover did not return for the two sequels because he asked for too much money. Tom Wilson (Biff) gets asked the same questions so many times he wrote a song. The Executive producer Steven Spielberg sent back a thank you note for the “Humorous Memo.” Ronald Reagan was offered the role of the Hill Valley’s mayor in Back to The Future 3.
