DREAMS AND MYTHS: HOLLYWOOD AND 9/11
The summer of last year, my wife and I took a trip to the Flight 93 memorial site. It was a four hour trip. Before we went, we watched the National Geographic special on 9/11. The place had loads of visitors. We actually got to meet some of the family members of the Flight 93 passengers and hear the story. The experience impacted us deeply.
I tell that story, because I think it explains when I saw the preview this past weekend, I was actually anxious to see it. My wife was as well.
I can't say the same for everyone else in the theater. Comments were made like "Why the hell would they make a movie about that?"
My biggest fear is that someone like Oliver Stone will turn it into a politically motivated film as opposed to just telling the story.
