Yeah, I never heard any of that about this film either. Though there are many people who are still 9/11 overloaded. And it's certainly a gut-wrenching film that may be too sad or emotional for some people at some times.

Many of you here might know that zapppop has a phonographic memory. He remembers with uncanny precision everything he hears. What is less well known is that he has a photographic memory as well. I took him to see United 93, and that was a terrible mistake. He cannot shake disturbing imagery. It won't go away from his consciousness, and it will disturb his dreams tremendously.



I happen to like true life stories of fantastical happenings. Truth is almost always stranger, and better, than fiction. And since I can barely remember where I put my keys, any emotional damage is quickly forgotten.
