Parker Adderson, Philosopher

Starring: Harris Yulin and Doug Watson

Directed by: Arthur Barron /John Korty

Confederate Generals don't look kindly upon Yankee spies-in fact, they're hanged at sunrise & usually. Parker Adderson is a confessed spy whose philosophizing about his fate forces his executioner to confront his mortality-and take a long, hard look at the death that awaits every soldier, and every human being.
