  • . In "Big Fish, " the contemporary parents and a recently-married young man presumably have TV's in their homes
  • . Old Ed is given to stories that his son has heard over and over, particularly one about the giant catfish that ate Ed's wedding band and required him to snatch the fish in his hands and shake the ring from its mouth
  • . The story of the huge catfish that ate Edward's golden wedding band only to spit it out after being violently jostled by the fisherman may have been inspired by the biblical story of Jonah and the Whale
  • . All of this is by way of Burton's conveying, via John August's adaptation of Daniel Wallace's book, "Big Fish, A Novel of Mythic Proportions, " that stories from the Bible, the Koran, presumably the Bhagavad Gita and The Book of Zoroaster, are myths somehow essential to pass down through the generations to bind each to the others
