Quotes And Leadership Lessons From 10 Minutes Gone

My latest book, Reel Leadership, is now available on Amazon. If you love movies and leadership, you will love this book.

10 Minutes Gone stars two of my favorite actors, Michael Chiklis (I loved Chiklis in Fantastic Four, The Shield, and No Ordinary Family) as Frank and Bruce Willis as Rex. It’s always difficult for me to watch newer Bruce Willis movies knowing we will no longer see him in recent movies. He has a language disorder called Aphasia. This disease affects his ability to speak, listen, read, and write.

The man who brought us such entertaining movies as Die Hard, The Sixth Sense, Armageddon, and other films began to take any film work he could as his disease progressed. Within two years, Willis had made over 15 movies. That’s a lot!

Quotes And Leadership Lessons From Plane

My latest book, Reel Leadership, is now available on Amazon. If you love movies and leadership, you will love this book.

Plane is an action movie that will have you at the edge of your seat for most of the film. Starring Gerard Butler as pilot Brodie Torrance, Mike Colter (of Luke Cage fame) as convict Louis Gaspare, and Yoson An as co-pilot Dele, the thrills keep coming for the whole film.

Torrance is the pilot of a plane that was directed to fly through a dangerous storm. The aircraft was struck by lightning, lost power, and crash land safely on an island.

That’s only the beginning. The action really starts now.
