Rubin says when they returned to Illinois, his wife quit her job and put their house on the market before he could even protest. The next thing he knew, they and their two sons were California bound. From his travels and ex- periences, particularly in Asia, Rubin developed a grow- ing interest in the metaphysical, which is evi- dent in his screenplays. Rubin says his scripts deal with "the expanded envelope of human experience, the larger context of life that goes beyond the normal psychological realms and is infused with a higher sensibility." -As script material, Rubin likes the fact that there is still much about ourselves and our world that we don't know. While he says he's not limited by a science-fiction- fantasy-metaphysical genre, given his interest, Rubin knows every film he makes will be formed by it. That interest and influence is very much alive in his up- coming Paramount feature film, Ghost. The movie stars Patrick Swayze as a ghost who wants very much to re- join the living and com- municate with the woman he loves, played by Demi Moore. His only contact is a psychic named Oda Mae Brown (Whoopi Goldberg), a charlatan who is startled to find her powers are real. On- ly she can hear the ghost. In the course of the movie, Swayze discovers his death was a murder and that his love's life is in danger. Rubin says this movie is not about life after death. Nor is he trying to prove the ex- istence of ghosts, but rather he is "showing a larger sphere of reality" by assum- ing ghosts exist and how one might handle this situation. The story line is influenced a little bit by Shakespeare's Hamlet, but Rubin says this is a romantic comedy thriller, not a tragedy. Like Hamlet, though, this film is a family affair, both behind the scenes and on screen. The director, Jerry Zucker, more widely known for his slapstick comedy than romantic thrillers, always uses family members in his films. He permitted Rubin to cast his mother, Sondra, in a small role. Ironically, she gets to play a nun. Sondra, 71, con- sidered the part a challenge and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. She even got to speak on camera. Her one line? "Bless you, child." Another of Rubin's screen- plays, Jacob's Ladder, which was written while he was still in Illinois, is what Rubin calls a "visionary thriller." Rubin can't say too much about the film before its release, but does say it stars Tim Robbins as a Vietnam vet who starts having strange hallucina- tions, and is directed by Adrian Lyne of Fatal Attrac- tion fame. Rubin has one other feature film credit to his name — Brainstorm — a 1983 sci-fi- fantasy flick, not a great movie, says Rubin, but it stands out at Natalie Wood's .last film. While writing films is Rubin's passion, he says it does have its creative limitations. To give himself more creative control, Rubin says not only is he writing his next film, he is also the director. "A writer's vision of a film is only the beginning; it's not the end, which is why I want to direct a movie. Someone once told me that directing a movie is like writing the final draft of the script." Besides, directing is something Rubin has wanted to do since he graduated from NYU, "but nobody ever told me it would take 20 years to get that chance." ❑
