Trivia
The
Jacket is based on the story "The Star Rover" by Jack London which in turn was based on his interviews with Ed Morrell, who whilst in
prison at San Quentin was tortured, often with a very tight straitjacket which
constricted his chest, breathing and blood flow. In order to cope with this he
quickly learned self-hypnosis similar to what Jack Starks goes through.
