Documentary with a history lesson

Rating: 10/10 (29 April 2006)

I could not get comfortable in my seat. I sat in the rear of the theater, a few fidgety like myself. The film did not make me cry,( as I had initially anticipated. I just became angry. It was sad, but more than that it showed how unorganized and chaotic that day was. The most interesting aspect was that names were not used, as far as when each passenger, gov. employee, etc... addressed each other, just delivering lines, I guess like that day, making perfect sense and less script like. I think in that sense, it felt very real and put the observer within action. It was loud towards the end, I cannot even fathom what they went through, but incredible that passengers had the information that they did and made the decisions to fight back. I found myself wishing I had been part of that team that charged the door. One of the better films I have seen recently.
