Astrong connection between the novelist J.D Salinger and a character William Forester

William Forrester a character in a movie named ''Finding Forrester.'' The character is quite a mysterious one. Being a novelist who wrote many books and only got one book published named the Avalon Landing'' and disappearing from the world of critics the same happened with the real novelist who wasnt just a character in a movie but in real was J.D Salinger. As J.D Salinger wrote only one book called ''The catcher in the rye.''
The movie shows how Forrester confines himself to an apartment only but knows all that is going on in the world outside that apartment but doesnt want to face the public. And the same happened with J.D Salinger. This common phenomena is known as agoraphobia which means fear of open spaces.
Also in the movie Forrester blocked a biography of himself that the character Professor Robert Crawford was going to publish. Salinger did the samething by filing a lawsuit again Ian Hamilton.
