Nice drama & the real captain is also a real hero!

I prefer Tom Hanks' dramas, especially knowing that he played Captain Sully, I want to watch it even more, because I always remember the first time I saw on TV that the plane made a successful forced landing on the Hudson River, all I was amazed at the news that the passengers and crew members survived! The whole film looks really good, the captain is a real hero! To this day I still remember that he was the last to evacuate the plane, and after the plane had entered the water, he went around the cabin to check for any passengers left behind! After the movie was over, I deliberately bought this book and browsed the homepage of the real captain for a long time!

Sully quotes

  • Chesley 'Sully' Sullenberger: [New York late at night and both men can't sleep so they decide to go for a walk. It's cold outside and both are bundled up] It's all so unreal. I guess I'm just having a little trouble separating reality from whatever the hell this is.

    Jeff Skiles: This is two men freezing their asses off.

    [They both laugh]

    Jeff Skiles: Sully

    [pause]

    Jeff Skiles: don't worry. You did a great thing and it's going to be remembered for a very long time.

    Chesley 'Sully' Sullenberger: Funny thing is, I've delivered a million passengers over 40 years in the air and in the end I'll be judged on 208 seconds.

    Jeff Skiles: Come on. Tomorrow's going to be a good day. Computer SIMS will prove you were right and we can all put our wings back on.

    Chesley 'Sully' Sullenberger: Do you want to run?

    [Both men go jogging on down the street]

  • Jeff Skiles: I'm hoping six months from now we'll just be laughing about how we got to meet David Letterman.

    Chesley 'Sully' Sullenberger: We're going on David Letterman?

    Jeff Skiles: Yeah, right after the next NTSB interview. I'm guessing David's going to be slightly funnier.
