Posted: 4/29/06 at 12:18amWhat's all this talk about there not being any music? There is tons of music in this movie. It's very Enya and James Horner-like. SWELLING. I do not know how most people are missing it.

Just saw it, and at the end, I just started crying. And I don't cry in movies. But I cried, and the rest of the audience cried, and when the credits started rolling, I didn't budge. I just sat there with my face buried in my sweatshirt, crying. There's... no words to describe the movie. Honestly. It was... real.
And Cheyenne was good. :)

Larry King had a very intersting show.
I may go see this movie out of respect. But, first, I need to make a donation to the foundation that is creating the memorial.
It is funny, it was showing a few blocks from my house, and they had to stop the showing because there was a gas leak in the theater showing the movie.

That's what was brilliant about the score. It's very unobtrusive and yet powerful.
As I said in another thread, the Oscar Race began today. This is a great film--exquisitely created. It's just stunning.
If it came out in 2005, it would have easily been my number 1 pic.

Dude--I never once was arguing against your belief of what happened. I was arguing over your calling the film propaganda--as if one version of events was less dignified or legit than your own.
I do understand the difference between what is being recorded as fact and what may be the truth that differs from that fact.
Though I get my lil jabs in, I do understand that as a matter of record, Bush was legitimately elected. And, though there are many theories as to what happened on 9/11 (any COULD be true), it is a matter of record that what happened on that plane is that the passengers fought back and somehow that led to the plane crashing in a field and not a building in DC.
