9/11: Minute by Minute

There wasn’t anything new or revealing in this short film, which I suppose means I have read and watched enough about 9/11 to be quite informed on the subject. But it was interesting to watch the events unfold from this moment by moment perspective, mostly from the angle of the traffic controllers and other outsiders trying to make sense of the tragedy as it developed. There was hardly anything political discussed, though there was the comment that as a nation we used it as an excuse to go after Saddam rather than those more at fault, or rich oil supplier nation the Saudis. Mostly it stuck to its theme of sort of “you are there.”
