On one of those warm, clear, late afternoons around Labor Day, I was sitting in my office enjoying the lowering sun backlighting huge sunflowers that have been working all season to reach the level of my window. The flowers were in full bloom, and the golden sun behind the canary yellow flowers made them flame with an unmatched brilliance.
While I was enjoying the sunflowers, I began to become aware that something else was taking place.

In one of the great "eureka" experiences of modern science, James D. Watson and Francis Crick had discovered the gene's double-helical structure by brilliantly and rapidly combining the findings of others with insights of their own. Their works and other implications inspired a generation of scientists to pursue molecular biology; until then, scientists envisioned the gene as a complex assemblage of proteins that would take decades to decipher.

Though they cannot supplant nor replace other methodologies, films can possibly raise new questions, provide different perspectives, and reveal unique ways of knowing about seminal subject, at least by comparison to the standard fare of academic analysis. Each one, "ethics" and "leadership," draw upon substantially different intellectual literatures, scholarly methodologies, traditional assumptions, and disciplinary perspectives. Film, often far better than social science literature, may provide a more "holistic account" of not only individual lives, but entire situations where ethical leadership is practiced. Finally, ethical leadership includes the use of symbols. Symbols abound throughout, thus giving the story meaning, depth, and power beyond simply "a typical feel-good" movie. List...
