scale of vidness. how bright.. i guess you couldday the wow factor. >> it took him about three weeks to write the algorithm. the model takes in to account high or low clouds, moisture, pressure and up to 20 different data. the prograrathen postsap every six hours to the group's website, sunsetwx.com. >> where is the best sunset today. >> actually the model is sniffing out some pretty good sunset in southern california. >> you may have seen this in parts of the's coast ththksgiving weekenen these guys called it. >> the oranges and reds were

jersey, philadelphia, delaware. >> this is with what gorgeous looks like. >> yes. the as search with a lot of followers. type in sunset on instagram and you will find 85 million photos of evenings' golden hour. but that desire to share those final day's rays has been going on for centuries. long been the dawn o social media. >> so this is a famous sunset. >> this is a very famous sunset. >> claude monet. >> this combination of giddy and frustrated. because he says light changes every five minutes. >> that way sunsets are like fingerprints. no two are alike. and neither is the price tag. the great florida sunset sold

last month for nearly $6 million. a record for the artist. and this van gogh is possibly worth 10s of millions. van gogh himself described the sunset he painted as a shower of gold. >> what is it that you think about a sunset that we keep wanting to capture. >> sunset is like a punch in the face. so potent, so powerful. so vivid. and it is never the me. it takes your breath away. you can understand why artists wanted to capture that sensation. one of monet's friends talked about inprisoning the sun. capturing and caging it, holding it close for that onemoment, something that is beyond our control, b bond our touch. but in these paintings you can capture and it hold on to it forever. >> the sun's daily farewell may

also give us a brighter outlook. she's written 13 mental health books and many articles. >> increased tendency towards pro social behavior. so you are actually more prone towards been cooperative. more prone to been generous to other people. >> she describes a daily dose of awe to be taken at dust. and it is okay she says to capture the heavenly wonder with canvas or camera, as s ng as they go down before the sun does. >> and you are having this same experience you're telling people and at the same time you're depriving yourself of the experience. >> and the whiz kids have rolled

experience i suppose. [ laughter ] i love how the extraordinary comes from the ordinary. >> yes. >> magic feels next to a job or adult concerns that may be limiting. and brought together the movie excited me. >> same kind of dysfunction as previous movies. was there a point when you started making films that you realized you were on to something? >> you know i think even if you look at some of my most favorite films like "it's a wonderful life" he has a family he loves and he's loyal to but it is a little crazy. and i think that is the fertility for something like where you are from, who you are, it is real which makes it very

specific. >> at what point did you latch on to that style you want to tell a story in? because you have a very distinctive film making style. >> i think starting with the fighter. to me it was the recognition of i know theseople. salt of the earth, all members of life. and work with each other and also have conflict and there is right in front of their faces a magic that you may get glimpses of, moments i their perseverance. i like inspirational stories. silver linings playbook was very personal to me because i had family member whose had ststggled with mood disorders. and i love when people are pulled together by the most difficult things they have to face which can then become very uplifting in some way. american hustle, thepeople. i i ve the characters. i love the homes. i love that they all have something ey love about life.

they love about life that makes them want to get up every day and fight for it and feel that joy the children feel. i don't know. to me how grown ups manage to do that is endlessly fascinating and surprising. i want my movies to surprise people and take them off guard and to give them a ride. that's how i taught mysf film making. i didn't go to film school. i watched life and i watched films repeatedly and i said how did they do that? you are capturing something that is almost unattainable. you have to o ide yourself by what you are drawn to that feels real and that also feels unexpected. >> how does one get drawn to mops though? most people are probably surprised given the weighty subjects you have dealt with. a mop. >> a woman who is formidable is at the center and the men who are brave enough to love and support her. you have the best divorced couple in america. i'll say that again.

the best divorced couple in america. that was a story i had never seen. >> that was the scene. the ex husband is living in the basement and she finally sticks out. but he sticks by her and. >> and instrumental helping with her success. >> without them none of it would have happened. somehow the people who challenge you also make you stronger, which is a mystery of life to me that i don't think anynydy can fully grasp. but also once they label her dream to become true they can also become obstacles. so the fact that the actual joy, and jennifer as a person, as such a big heart can just carry those people with her. they all work for her in some capacity.

whether or not they have had fierce conflict. and that is i i real. you take the scars of a difficult relationship and carry it forward. that is a big heart. >> david o. russell. thank you so much for being with us. >> thank you foror having me. have a great holiday. >> up next, if you are going to be a world class chef and restauranteur you can't do better than starting in and out such places a paris, and rome. mark murphy, ahead in the dish.
