The Accidental Tourist

The Accidental Tourist

  • An emotionally distant writer of travel guides must carry on with his life after his son is killed and his marriage crumbles.
  • After the death of his son, Macon Leary, a travel writer, seems to be sleep walking through life. Macon's wife, seems to be having trouble too, and thinks it would be best if the two would just split up. After the break up, Macon meets a strange outgoing woman, who seems to bring him back down to earth. After starting a relationship with the outgoing woman, Macon's wife seems to think that their marriage is still worth a try. Macon is then forced to deal many decisions — Justin Sharp <[email protected]>
  • After the murder of their young son, the marriage between Macon and his wife Sarah disintegrates, and she moves out. After a freak accident puts him on crutches, Macon goes to stay with his quirky siblings at the family home, where he meets the spirited Muriel, a dog trainer with a young son of her own, with whom he begins a friendship. When Sarah learns about this, she attempts a reconciliation and Macon is forced to make a decision. — Jwelch5742
  • Macon Leary is the author of a travel book for people who want to travel with the minimum fuss and as little impact as possible on their lives. Arriving back from a working trip, his wife announces she can no longer deal with the fact that he is dealing with the death of their son the same way that he travels: with minimum impact. Macon subsequently meets the quirky Muriel, who it seems is just the opposite to Macon. — Murray Chapman <[email protected]>
  • Macon Leary (William Hurt) is a Baltimore writer of travel guides for reluctant business travelers, which detail how best to avoid unpleasantness and difficulty. His marriage to his wife Sarah (Kathleen Turner) is disintegrating in the aftermath of the murder of their 12 year-old son, Ethan (Seth Granger). Sarah feels living with Macon she is losing the will to live and wants to reset her life. Sarah is also angry that Macon has no passion or loud emotions, he is very subdued. Sarah eventually leaves Macon, moving out of their house and into an apartment. Macon has a bad back that keeps resurfacing. Macon is pursued by Muriel Pritchet (Geena Davis), an animal hospital employee (Macon had met Muriel when he had to leave his dog with her at her hospital for care-taking, when he had to go away on a business trip. Macon was desperate as his regular animal shelter had refused to take in Edward due to his biting habit) and dog trainer with a sickly son Alexander Pritchett (Robert Hy Gorman) (Alexander is allergic to many many things and is almost always at the doctor's). Muriel is very chatty, while Macon is the quiet, reserved type. After he falls down the basement stairs and breaks his leg, Macon returns to his childhood home to stay with his eccentric siblings. Rose Leary (Amy Wright), Porter Leary (David Ogden Stiers) & Charles Leary (Ed Begley Jr.). Rose is super organized and has kind of like an OCD. Macon eventually hires Muriel to put his dog Edward through much-needed obedience training (as it was Edward which led to Macon falling down the basement stairs in his house. Plus Edwars also attacked Macon's employer Julian Edge (Bill Pullman) when he came to visit him at his sibling's house) (Julin also reminds Macon that he is running very late with his guidebook). Although Muriel at first seems brash and unsophisticated (she thinks Rose is Macon's ex-wife or something till he corrects her that Rose is his sister), Macon eventually finds himself opening up to her and trusting her (She is able to train Edward and befriend Macon in the process). Muriel had got married because she got pregnant, but then something went wrong during the pregnancy and Alexander was taken out by c section early. Muriel can never have kids again. Julian, meanwhile is attracted to Rose and joins the family for dinner to spend more time with her. One day Macon criticizes Rose's cooking (she had cooked the turkey at a wrong temperature), in front of Julian. Rose gets real upset and she thinks Macon wants her to take care of the boys forever and is thus trying to drive Julian away from her. Muriel continues to pursue Macon and invites him over for dinner at her place.. Macon is very resistant and tries to get out of it by saying something came up. But Muriel confronts Macon and he reveals that just last yr he lost his son in a holdup at an hamburger joint. Hence he is not ready to socialize yet, nor spend time with Alexander. Muriel quietly hugs Macon and wins him over. She takes him to her bed and they snuggle. Macon spends more and more time at Muriel's and gets more involved in their lives. eventually Macon moves in with Muriel Macon completes his book and delivers it to Julian. Julian tells Macon that he is going to propose to Rose. Porter talks to Macon and tries to warn him and say that Muriel is not good for him.. Macon wouldn't have any of it, and instead finds himself bonding with Alexander (taking him clothes shopping and saving him from school bullies). Macon wants to put Alexander into private school and this upsets Muriel as Macon is not sure if he is committed to her for the next 10 yrs or not.. Muriel tells Macon that he is not sure of what he wants and wants him to get himself sorted. Macon says he doesn't want to get married and this upsets Muriel even more. Rose gets married to Julian. Sarah is Rose's Matron of Honor. When Sarah's apartment lease is up, she moves back into their old home and suggests to Macon that they start over. Macon leaves Muriel, and he and Sarah set up house once more. Meanwhile Rose has moved back as she worried about her brothers without her to take care of them. Macon suggests Julian that Rose has OCD and he should give her some organizing job that she can immerse herself into. When Macon visits Paris for research, Muriel surprises him by showing up on the same flight and stays in the same Paris hotel, recommended by Macon in one of his travel guides. She suggests that they enjoy themselves as if they are vacationing together. Macon insists he is there strictly for business, and although he shows concern for how Alexander is doing, keeps Muriel at arm's length. During Macon's last night in Paris, Muriel asks to go with him, and despite an early flight she tells him he doesn't have to reply just now. Waking up in the middle of the night Macon decides to call Muriel but his telephone malfunctions. Macon gets up and while trying to fix the cord, hurts his back and becomes bedridden. Muriel knocks on his door waking him up but before he can decide what to do Muriel assumes he has gone already and leaves. Mustering the strength to go to the front desk, Macon phones Julian (and finds that Rose is now working for Julian and organized the entire office) to inform him of his back pain. Sarah comes to Paris (This was also organized by Rose), to care and make day-trips for him in order to complete his travel guide. Sarah proposes that after finishing the day trips if he is feeling better they can go sightseeing, reschedule the flight for a latter date and make the trip a second honeymoon to which Macon agrees. However, Sarah tells him that she has run into Muriel when she arrived and as such continues to question Macon about his attraction to Muriel, angering Macon. The next morning, Macon dresses while Sarah still sleeps, then wakes her to tell her that he is going back to Muriel. On his way to the airport, Macon spots Muriel hailing a taxi and tells the driver to stop. Thinking the driver stopped for her, Muriel bends to gather her luggage and catches sight of Macon in the taxi. She smiles, and Macon returns the smile.

Jay Slater injuries are compatible with accidental fall, authorities confirm

Jay Slater injuries are compatible with accidental fall, authorities confirm

Authorities have confirmed that the injuries on his body fit with the theory of an accidental fall.

Joshua Nair

Spanish authorities have confirmed that injuries Jay Slater sustained are compatible with an accidental fall.

Court officials confirmed earlier today (16 July) that the body found in the search for Jay Slater on Monday (15 July) is that of missing British teenager Jay Slater.

The 19-year-old first went missing on 17 June, after heading to the Airbnb of some people he just met the previous night while partying on the island of Tenerife.

He was last heard from that morning when he called a friend and told her that his phone was almost dead and that he 'needed a drink' after setting off on the 11-hour trek.

It has been confirmed that Jay Slater's body has been found. (Family Handout)

Charity LBT Global revealed that his remains were found with his clothes and possessions near his last known location on Monday.

According to LBC, a female investigating judge previously explained: “In reference to the British citizen Jay Slater, the autopsy with the full identification of the body and the causes of death will take time, because the body was very deteriorated.

“But there is very little doubt about both the identity and the etiology.

"The documentation he was carrying corresponds to that of Jay Slater and everything is pointing to an accidental fall, although that is unofficial pending the final reports."

Confirmation then followed from Spanish authorities that the fingerprints examined in the post-mortem belonged to Jay, and a court spokesperson added that his injuries sustained were compatible with an accidental fall from a cliff.

The court spokesperson revealed: "We have a positive ID... Fingerprinting confirms that the body belongs to Jay Slater and the death was due to multiple traumas compatible with a fall in the mountainous area."

The body was found in a remote area of the Spanish island yesterday morning by a Civil Guard mountain rescue group.

The confirmation of his death has been heartbreaking to those close to Jay. (Family Handout)

His mother, Debbie Duncan, released a statement today , saying that this tragic development is the 'worst news'.

In a statement released via LBT Global she said: "I just can’t believe it – we’re here with the embassy staff waiting for an update and now it’s come – the worst news.

"I just can’t believe this could happen to my beautiful boy. Our hearts are broken."

Jay Slater's disappearance: Timeline of key moments

Sunday 16 June

Jay attends the New Rave Generation music festival with friends at Papagayo nightclub in the tourist resort of Playa de las Americas in the south of the island.

Monday 17 June

In the early hours of Monday, Jay goes to stay in an apartment in the north of the island with people he had met over the course of the night.

Jay posts a picture on Snapchat from the doorway of the property he stayed at overnight, tagged as being in Rural de Teno park.

He calls his friend, Lucy Law, telling her he had attempted to walk back to his accommodation after missing his bus – a journey that would take more than ten hours.

He said he had 'cut his leg' on a cactus and had 'no idea where he was'. He also said his phone was on one percent battery. His last known location is Rural de Teno park.

He is reported missing.

Tuesday 18 June

After friends spend the previous day searching to no avail, local police and mountain rescue teams scour Rural de Teno park for Jay.

His family fly out to Tenerife to join the search.

Wednesday 19 June

The search is temporarily moved to the Los Cristianos area in the south of the island due to a potential lead, but this amounts to nothing and the search returns north.

Jay’s mum Debbie Duncan says she fears her son had 'been taken against his will'.

Sunday 23 June

TV detective Mark Williams-Thomas offers his team's expertise in the search for Jay. He writes on X: "If [Jay's family] give me total access and with feet on the ground I will very quickly be able to say if his disappearance is him alone or if it has third party involvement."

Sunday 30 June

The Tenerife Civil Guard announce they are ending the search for Jay after 13 days, but the investigation remains open and they will follow up any new leads. Jay's family vow to continue the search themselves.

Monday 15 July

Police announce that human remains of a 'young man' have been found.

Tuesday 16 July

The body found is confirmed to be Jay Slater following an autopsy by Spanish authorities.

A motorcyclist visiting the U.S. from Germany died and another was hospitalized after they became overwhelmed by heat amid record-breaking temperatures in Death Valley National Park over the weekend, authorities said.

The incident took place on Saturday in the Badwater Basin portion of the park as the temperature soared to 128 degrees, marking a daily record, Death Valley National Park representatives said.

A group of six men from Germany were making their way through the area on motorcycles when two of them suffered significant heat-related illness, officials said.

One of the riders was pronounced dead at the scene, park spokeswoman Abigail Wines said.

A second was taken to a hospital for treatment of "severe heat illness," according to the statement.

He, along with two other members of the group, were transported 19 miles to the Furnace Creek Visitor Center for help, Wines said. The severely ill man was subsequently taken to a hospital in Pahrump, Nevada by ambulance, then to another hospital in Las Vegas by helicopter.

The record-setting heat prevented rescuers from using a helicopter to transport the victims directly from Death Valley, as they can't safely fly in temperatures above 120 degrees, Wines said.

Two other motorcyclists in the group declined medical treatment, she added.

Saturday's high temperature broke the area's previous daily record of 127 degrees, set in 2007.

Park Superintendent Mike Reynolds urged visitors to be vigilant of the serious threat posed by extreme heat.

"High heat like this can pose real threats to your health," he said. "While this is a very exciting time to experience potential world record setting temperatures in Death Valley, we encourage visitors to choose their activities carefully, avoiding prolonged periods of time outside of an air-conditioned vehicle or building when temperatures are this high."

When the head index exceeds 99 degrees, ambient air, such as the wind experienced by motorcyclists, is no longer able to provide relief from the heat, officials said.

"Heat illness and injury are cumulative and can build over the course of a day or days," according to the statement. "Besides not being able to cool down while riding due to high ambient air temperatures, experiencing Death Valley by motorcycle when it is this hot is further challenged by the necessary heavy safety gear worn to reduce injuries during an accident."

Hiking and other outdoor activities are not recommended during periods of extreme heat, especially at lower elevations, park officials said.

Authorities also urged additional safety measures:

  • Stay hydrated
  • Wear loose-fitting clothing, a hat and sunscreen
  • Avoid the sun during the peak of the day
  • Carry an umbrella

Five people are safe after the sports utility vehicle they were riding in went off the road and into an inactive hot, acidic geyser in Yellowstone National Park , officials said Friday.

The passengers, whose names were not released by officials, were driving Thursday morning near a semi-centennial geyser thermal pool when it went off the road.

The five people were able to get out of the 105-degree Fahrenheit (41 degrees Celsius) acidic water on their own after the crash, park spokesperson Morgan Warthin said in a statement .

The passengers were taken to an area hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.

The road was closed for about two hours Friday while the SUV was extracted from 9 feet of water, Warthin said.

The Semi-Centennial Geyser has been inactive since a major eruption in 1922. It is located near Roaring Mountain between Mammoth Hot Springs and Norris Junction.

Visitors can visit five types of hydrothermal features at the park and there are more than 10,000 such features at Yellowstone.

Park officials said the incident is still being investigated.
