       game to make an enchanting, enduring, film that will be remembered long past

            As a longtime Parrothead, Teague
            has followed the music of the
            recently deceased Jimmy Buffett for
            many years. The lyrics and
            melodies of Buffett's earlier ballads
            inspired a multi-season, epic,
            period series that Teague has
            developed. It follows the hero's life
            from adolescence to old age,
            beginning in the mid-1930s.
