...Scapegoat Wilderness, where the trees sound like a crowd waiting for the curtain to rise. It is a place where a man who hates technology and progress and people would have plenty of time to practice what the Unabomber preaches. He could listen to the forest rustle and hum, the larches and ponderosa pines hundreds of years old, hundreds of feet high, the tamaracks and the lodgepoles that totter when the wind rubs up against the Continental Divide.

At least Mr. Holland gives you some good music (Gershwin, Ray Charles, three Beethoven symphonies) to hum along with while you cry. It's a greatest-hits album, with Kleenex...
