Andrew Neff at Bangor Daily News has posted an article titled, "NESCom students to film Stephen King short story."
.
Students at Bangor's New England School Of Communications will be filming King's shrot story "The Last Rung On The Ladder." The story has been previously filmed, and this production is going to be pretty low key. However, they are hoping that King's name on the project will be a head turner."
.
The story revolves around a man who learns his sister has killed herself. He remembers a summer when they were children and the ladder broke as she climbed to the loft. She jumps, at his insistance, and falls into a pile of hay. But she insists that she had forgotten abotu the hay and was simply trusting him. The story uses the theme of falling. The woman saved as a girl from falling off a ladder, later falls from a building. Her brother realizes years later that just as she needed him to save her as a child, she was once again in need of him.
