Storyline
| Plot Summary |
South Carolina US Army Special operations soldier John is on summer leave from his German base, visiting his widowed father. Being gallant on the pier, he befriends college student Savannah, a college student, and her buddies, a terminal father and his angelic son. John falls in love with Savannah, who diagnoses his beloved, gentle but weird father as mildly autistic. He plans not to sign up again, but 9/11 changes that, and she won't wait idly while their friends desperately need help. Written by KGF Vissers |

| Goofs | When John is in Hungary when he hears about 09/11 (as indicated by the signs on/near the coffee shop: Tigris Kavehaz, Muvesz...), and the TV news are in Serbian (even using Cyrillic - not Latin - script). This scene is not necessarily a mistake. Although not well explained in the movie, in the book John was stationed in Kosovo. He could simply have been standing outside a Hungarian-style coffee shop there, which explains the Hungarian language on the store front. Serbian is recognized as an official language of Kosovo, which explains the TV news being in Serbian. See more » |
