Stone Page #9

Synopsis: Parole officer Jack Mabry (Robert De Niro) has only a few weeks left before retirement and wishes to finish out the cases he's been assigned. One such case is that of Gerald "Stone" Creeson (Edward Norton), a convicted arsonist who is up for parole. Jack is initially reluctant to indulge Stone in the coarse banter he wishes to pursue and feels little sympathy for the prisoner's pleas for an early release. Seeing little hope in convincing Jack by himself, Stone arranges for his wife, Lucetta (Milla Jovovich), to seduce the officer, but motives and intentions steadily blur amidst the passions and buried secrets of the corrupted players in this deadly game of deception.

that it comes to you through sound.

If you let this sound go through you,

it changes you, you know?

It puts you back into harmony,

you know, makes you

like a tuning fork of God.

Host:
Okay.

Stone:
Yeah, they say

they say it can start with small things

like little vibrations--

you know, the sound of a bee,

the sound of a buzzing light"

and then it grows.

Host:

All right, that's interesting.

Stone:
Well, they say

that everything that happens to you

is what was supposed

to happen to you for you to advance,

that you've got to

come back lots of times,

you know, cycle through many lives

until you learn, until you...

Male radio host:

Well, thanks for your input.

Next up here

on the WDDL listener line is

Kathy in Farmington Hills.

You're on All Voices Under God.
