Lessons from movies - 2: Inside Man (2006)

This is a movie about a bank robbery. But wait, it's not any ordinary burglary, but a grand, superbly orchestrated one. In fact, it's so perfectly done that the police and the authorities think that nothing has even been taken. What can we learn from this movie? Many things.

Lesson 1: Whenever you set out to do something, think about it. Real hard. And then think some more. If you do this, and plan for eventualities as well as you can, then you're likely to succeed fantastically.

Lesson 2: Not everyone who appears to be innocent is innocent; not everyone who appears guilty is guilty. Sometimes, it's impossible to distinguish between the two.

Lesson 3: People sometimes do things just because they can. So, don't go looking for reasons all the time, because there may be none.
