We mainly discussed about the sad story of Jan Kerouac, Jack's abandonned daughter. Upon leaving, I said : Madame, if someone deserves a movie, it's Jan. <br /><br />Must say that I then had the pleasure to meet with a very attentive, intelligent and sensitive person. I wish her the best at Cannes with her role in On The Road. <br /><br />What is left for me to know is how, the 1978 taped interview --- more than 7 hours --- with Lu Ann Henderson (Marylou) presented to Walter Salles and the main actors at the 2010 boot camp in Montreal, by Gerald Nicosia and Lu Anne's own daughter, Anne Marie Santos, has touched the producer and the actors. The real story behind Jack's fiction brings a much needed insight to the novel. <br /><br />"One and Only", a must read before seing the movie if one wants to see what is hidden beyond the frames.
