Ep 93 | Did Stallone Just Give Hollywood a KNOCKOUT Punch in New Film? | Dick Boyce
Dick Boyce, investor and entrepreneur, joins James Poulos to discuss his latest film, “Lost on a Mountain in Maine.” Co-produced with Sylvester Stallone, the story spans multiple generations and returns cinema to a time before smartphones, helicopter parenting, and digital overload. As Hollywood continues to decline, faith-based indie films like those produced by Angel Studios indicate a cultural shift toward meritocracy, resilience, and family values. Boyce also mentions the union overreach in industries like Hollywood, which has limited creativity and the ability to produce movies the audience wants to see. They also discuss the importance of private equity and the impact of AI on jobs. Companies lost productivity and value by pushing DEI and ESG, which were worsened by COVID-19.
