This I can answer :)

This is the half-life of a free neutron (it is actually closer to 15 minutes than 10 minutes). Inside a nucleus, neutrons are by far not free and are stable thanks the the presence of the other protons and neutrons.

PS: I will try to check the movie later on tonight or tomorrow. This is still on the to-do list ;)
