Description:
Conceived in a storytelling workshop given by Spalding Gray, Old Man in a Baseball Cap is not your typical story of World War II. Written with self-effacing humor and gritty details, the now-septuagenarian Rochlin recounts the story of an ordinary young man thrust into extraordinary circumstances. Whether he's bumping up against the Army's bigotry because he's Jewish, aiding in the delivery of a baby by cesarean section, being ordered to obliterate a Hungarian village, or parachuting from his plane in the middle of Yugoslavia and then walking 400 kilometers to safety with an amorous guide, Rochlin captures the immediacy of the moment. A wonderful story that transcends one young soldier's life and taps into the universal, Fred Rochlin's Old Man in a Baseball Cap is unforgettable.
