A new trailer has been release for "Unbroken", the amazing story of Louis Zamperini who made the 1936 Olympic team in the 5k as a teenage unknown, and later became a war hero after surviving 47 days at sea. This incredible story, captured in the 2010 book Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption by best-selling author Laura Hillenbrand (my review of the book and some CBS clips here), is now an Angelina Jolie-director and Coen Brother written epic that will certainly be incredible.
Check it out. Worth it just for the quote - "if you can take it, you can make it". Or maybe when the cops suggest a new vocation to his parents by saying "we've been chasing him around town for years...may we suggest running."
looks aaaawwwwwsome. can't wait... I love stories of resilience brought by running culture (check out the Lynn Jennings scary story on http://runblogger.com/2014/02/how-running-saved-the-life-of-an-olympian-lynn-jennings-story.html), applied to everyday's life.
