Sarah, that's very powerful. Sorry it got lost in the thread. I'd love to have my heart ripped open listening.

Here's an interesting discussion from Slate about whether or not to show the trailer.

Why am I concerned all of a sudden with how Stone portrays the hero Mark Bingham? Stone is gay friendly, possibly even friendlier than gay friendly.
Review
Hero of Flight 93 (Advocate Books: Life Stories Series)
FROM THE PUBLISHER
Bravery in the face of unimaginable terror prevented greater tragedy on September 11, 2001, when a group of passengers overpowered the hijackers of United Airlines Flight 93. Their heroism and sacrifice inspired us all. One of these passengers was Mark Bingham, a living-out-loud, gregarious, gay man. But who was Mark Bingham really? What was it about this man that caused his friends to unanimously say that he must have been one of the men who rushed the hijackers? The Advocate's senior news editor Jon Barrett interviewed those who knew him best, starting with the mother who instilled in him the belief that he could be anything, to the friends, lovers, business associates, and rugby teammates who complete the picture of a man determined to never take second place. This is his story, told to remind all Americans that heroism knows no sexuality.
Jon Barrett is the senior news editor for The Advocate magazine, and the author of the cover story on Mark Bingham in The Advocate upon which this book is based. He lives in Los Angeles.
*****************
After a little imdb research I found out that gay actor Cheyenne Jackson plays Mark Bingham. Can you believe it? A gay man is actually cast in a gay hero role.
