I went back into our archives and....................

consensus was that it wasn't the 'preacher' and was the Christmas World Lady's son 'oliver' who I guess is the wizard? I have the DVD in the car to return, but I may just go back and revisit the scene where Jack meets her on the way to visiting the girl's grandmother upstairs. I don't recall a reference to 'oliver' in that scene, but 'oliver' would have had a connection to that child, as she visited the g.m. for piano lesssons every week.

The key for me is this. In the scene where Jack is driving away from the preacher's house, after visiting the mother, we see the preacher in the purple ford taurus and his hair is rather closely cropped. When we see the wizard driving up the mountain at the end, his hair, while not long, is in fact longer than the preacher's hair even thought both are grey, so we really do know that they're not the same person. We know the Volvo crashes and we know that the wizard isn't driving a ford, which is what Gary Jackson was driving.

I'm all for brain teasers in film, but this one had too big of a gap to leap, IMO.

Thanks, Chris

PS: What really got me was that while I was watching this, I was checking on the replies to a post I made referencing Romy on the General board. I was getting slammed for doing so and I'm trying to watch this freakin' film at the same time I'm reading replies calling me an asshole. Just not a good time to be watching a mind bender film....LOL.
