Wish me luck everyone I'm about to attempt the dangerous feat of drinking coffee while wearing a white shirt... I don't know what the higher ups at work were thinking when they chose white shirts.

I remember the movie too. he jumped after the night at the carnival I think? back in like the 70's right?
Yes, after inappropriate relationship with one of the carnival employees. I think the actor was Robby Benson but I can’t remember the name of the movie.
