You Don't Know Jack is a movie that
was shot by the video editors of Royal Caribbean Cruise Line. Al Wilbanks, Eric Immerman,
and I were all video editors for Royal Caribbean, and all of us ended up in this movie. In
a last minute decision, I was cast as Jack Cooly, a surfer looking for a way out of his life
who runs into Quenton Furlow (played by Eric Immerman). Quenton pays Jack to pick up a package
for him, and the fun begins.
In the summer of '96, shooting began
aboard the Majesty of the Seas, and after three weeks of shooting in Cozumel, Mexico, and
Georgetown, Grand Cayman, production finally wrapped. The footage was edited on board the
Majesty of the Seas by Allen, with some help from me, and aired to a private showing for
the crew in the ship's movie theather. Allen was able to put together a great short that
also features Felix Ravendo, Tony Pearsall, Ken Fisher, and Claus Hansen.
