Book Description

Plato said that all art is mimetic by nature; art is an imitation of life. Some things in life are best not spoken but seen. What cannot be expressed in the real world is nuanced subtly in innuendos under the cloak of artistic license.Lasting impressions on the mind, Gazing into the abyss through the pupil, it is anybody's guess what actually goes on there. Cinema, the seventh form of art, may have the potential to awaken the the sleeping giant within us to yonder beyond the outer and inner limits of our imagination.

Book Description

"This book takes on topics where critics fear to tread, into the moral and religious areas of life that really matter to ordinary people." James Hogan takes twenty popular films that have withstood the test of time-including Star Wars, Rain Man, Amadeus, The Shawshank Redemption, Groundhog Day, The Truman Show, and Forrest Gump-and discusses them with a view toward extracting lessons of Christian morality and, where appropriate, drawing parallels with the life of Jesus. Youth groups, adult film-discussion groups, and college and high-school classes on film will find this a valuable resource, particularly because the author has intentionally avoided movies about overtly religious topics. A set of reflection and discussion questions for each film facilitates use of the book in a group setting. Book jacket.

Movies are not a waste of time if you're intentional about watching the movie you're viewing. Reel Leadership speaks to leaders and movie lovers who want to look at leadership and personal development in a new way. Author Joseph Lalonde wants leaders to enjoy entertainment without feeling guilty. When he began his own personal development journey, Lalonde discovered how leadership gurus try to dissuade people from enjoying regular forms of entertainment because they see it as a waste of time. He fell in line and believed this lie; that entertainment, especially movies, held no real value. Over time, he realized each movie provides a story with a moral premise or leadership lesson. In this book, you'll read about: David Hayter (the writer of X-Men 1 and 2) and how he dealt with a demanding director on set. Daniel Knudsen and how every great movie should have a moral premise. Marty Himmel and how he overcame fear because of the movies he watched. Through Reel Leadership, you'll discover how movies provide more than just a quick escape. They are powerful tools for communicating leadership principles and how to find their leadership lessons.
