OMG. I don't know why I watched the whole thing - as if I thought he'd actually be rescued. :(
To whoever asked - yes, that's exactly what happened.
That second video is bizarre. Real footage mixed with I don't know what. I never saw it before.

It's the day told from the point of view of two Port Authority workers turned rescuers turned victims. Same horror, different heroes. Very disturbing - as is the first youtube video posted here. :( |

You mean this? link Reviewer: Author: lehdetnet from United States Tough one to review. in many ways it's a good movie, yet i'm not sure if i'd recommend it. it takes you right to the collapsing buildings, you feel them coming down. but then again the movie is a little too sentimental for my taste and feels a little like a made for TV film. i bet this would have played better without the violins underscoring every emotion. the subject is so powerful, the emotions so strong and raw, i don't need to be manipulated to feel them. it wouldn't take much to get me to relive and feel it all again. i don't feel uplifted, i just feel this weird mix of not quite what to think ... maybe we should have waited a couple of more years before tackling this subject .... 5/10 In addition: I cringed when i saw Nicolas Cage walk with the others toward the building. Ugh! |

yeh ok, release date aug 9th in USA, sep 29th in UK? why the big gap? should be released the same time worldwide i think, any date would be appropriate, except 9/11, dnt think anyone would see it that day! |

The last bit struck me the most - "i don't feel uplifted, i just feel this weird mix of not quite what to think ..." That weird mix is what many of us felt ON 9/11. Denial, disbelief, hope, shock. I'll never forget the images of hospital workers waiting in the streets with gurneys, hoping to save some lives. They weren't sure if they could handle the number of victims and called in every resource they had. They waited so long for victims who were never found. I don't know how I feel about this movie. Maybe he's right - some of us needed a couple of more years. |

I think most people don't want to see some patriotic disaster movie, but a realistic and honest review of events, a story about the people. I don't think we will see that if i look at the trailer. It just looks a bit...blah. |

The poor families of these people ...It's too distressing to watch, and to think that the calls made were the last that people ever heard from them... |
AspiringPhilosophe 07.08.2006 12:41 |
Even if this call was a fake...it's an accurate portayl of what happend. Even all of the 911 operators and the rescue personnel who didn't loose their lives all remarked how calm everyone was, even in the midst of that. Watching that really brought it all back...I was 2 weeks into my first year of college when this happend. My roommate at the time was flipping out, because her dad worked as a consultant and was supposed to be 2 buildings down the street from the towers that day. Luckily he'd taken that day off so he could help with some stuff around the house. It's hard to explain it to someone who isn't American really....even though to a certain extent the US needed a wake-up call about our foreign policy. I'm just sorry the wake up call had to be this...and I'm sorry for all of the families who lost loved ones. |

yeh that trailer does have some disturbing footage in it, e.g. 1-the shadow of the plane flying over head, that just makes you shiver! 2-the scene where it shows rubble hitting the floor, representing the collapse of im guessing the south tower, not nice 3-the scene inside the lobby where you notice the concrete pillars breaking apart from the building coming down, them 3 alone get you goin, like not nice bits, so i dont want to imagine what the actual film is like, i probably will see it when its released, i saw united 93 and beleive although too early to release, they did a good job telling the true story, i believe they can do it with this but again too early to release. |

I was in 7th grade when that happened and we all got brought to the basement to watch it I didnt know what to think of it then but now I have problems keeping composure thinking of it |

Kids were leaving with their parents by the dozen. Once we were home and settled, I thought about the other kids still at the school. The ones whose parents might not come home for them. We went back to the school to help match kids to parents, keep nervous ones occupied, and frankly, occupying ourselves. Two parents didn't make it back that day. After all the reassurances and relief for the ones who did, the eyes of the two little ones left waiting are what affect me most. |

I concur though. It doesn't mean a whole deal to me. I have absolutely no idea how it must feel. I can sympathise but not empathise as it holds know significant value to me whereas something like the Bali Bombings are a little closer to home and do mean something to me. Oh well. My two cents. |

The Artist Formerly Known As Paul JR wrote:Very true. I still remember where I was and exactly what I was doing that day. I used to think it was strange, when I interviewed my mom for a paper in high school about the JFK Assassination and she could remember everything so clearly. I used to think, "How could she remember all of that stuff so clearly? I can't even remember what I ate for breakfast yesterday!" But I remember 9-11 very clearly, and always will. It never really hit me how big it was until I saw on live news coverage the anchors crying, and people jumping from the top of the Towers before they collapsed. Until that point it seemed so surreal. I even asked my roommates when I walked in from my voice lesson if they were watching a movie (the 2nd plane had just hit the tower). Once I saw the people jumping....that's when I realized how big this really was. That was soon overshadowed by my one roommate trying desperately to call home to see if her dad was there, and all the phone lines at CMU were jammed. Seeing the look in her eyes until she found out that her dad was ok really made it real....I've never seen that much fear in one person before that.magicalfreddiemercury wrote:I bet most people are the same but I'll never forget what I was doing when that happened.The Artist Formerly Known As Paul JR wrote: I didnt know what to think of it then but now I have problems keeping composure thinking of itWe were off that day - just so happens.

<font color=red>taylorgaga wrote: which second video?From The Fairy King's second post on page one. When I first saw it, I couldn't watch the entire thing. I saw what looked like a missile hitting the tower and it didn't look anything like what I remember. I watched (most) of it last night and, except for that first image, the rest was actual footage from that day. |
