Filmcast Episode 155 – Fred
In the late 1960s, Fred was a solemn man in his late 70s with no friends and family left. Living in his brother-in-law’s house until forced to leave, all he has are his memories and emotions. Unfortunately, many of these are sad and harrowing, because Fred was a lookout onboard the RMS Titanic and was the one who spotted the iceberg that fatally sunk the ship in 1912.
His mind takes him back to that time, to both the trauma of the disaster itself and the coldness and blame he faced as one of the few survivors on the crew. As time goes on, these memories grow more vivid, forcing Fred to a breaking point and leaving him to make a devastating decision.
