OT: United 93 -- WILL YOU BE SEEING IT?
rtprod:
Hi everyone,
I saw it at an early press screening, and it's mind-blowing. Absolutely brilliant.
However, I keep hearing more and more from many friends that they have no interest. The stock line, and I'm hearing it about 90% of the time, is, "I don't think that I could see that." This doesn't bode well for box office hopes if my litmus test holds any merit across the population.
So the question is: WILL YOU BE SEEING IT?

I'm not sure yet. I have to get past this frustration and confusion about the need to know what happened on that flight, and what it's based on.
What did you like about it?

It's very, very "good" and for different reasons. First of all, it's a tightly-wound exercise in filmmaking, and Paul Greengrass knows what he is doing with his camera and editing. Secondly, it's a valuable document. In the end, it's a pretty terrifying experience.

As a New Yorker, honestly, I can't handle watching it in a theatre, even though the film focuses on the flight bound for Washington. Two of my friends died in the World Trade Center - it was torture trying to watch that TV documentary on PBS a few years ago - and to this day I hate looking at that huge construction pit that was the WTC.
Maybe I could watch it by myself in my apartment.
