"Rise and Rise again, until lambs become lions." There’s a
motto to live a life of significance by, to inspire not just
perseverance in the face of crucibles, but noble triumph over them.
It's the central truth explored in this episode of the summer
series LIGHTS, CAMERA, CRUCIBLES: What Our Favorite Movie Heroes
Can Teach Us About Overcoming Setbacks and Failure. Host Warwick
Fairfax and cohost Gary Schneeberger discuss the many lessons to
learned from ROBIN HOOD, particularly the Russell Crowe version of
the film, in which a common archer preserves England’s sovereignty
and becomes a champion of the downtrodden and dismissed. Robin
finds a life and builds a legacy of significance by
cultivating his character and putting the needs of others ahead of
his own wants. Be sure to catch the intermission – this is a series
about movies, right? – where Warwick and Gary discuss the versions
of the Robin Hood legend that have resonated the most for them for
decades.
