Finally a movie worth watching with regards to 9/11. This movie was produced in 2003 by Engine House Productions. It was filmed by Mike Lennon. He was a fellow New York Fireman, and had filmed, in documentary fashion, one of the victims of 9/11 before his death. He also interviewed others of the survivors, some of whom had survivors guilt. This film talked about the outpouring of condolences for the fire houses of New York, almost all of which were affected by this day with a lost comrade. This movie brings home some of the tragedy of that day.
At one point the firemen below a certain floor were told to evacuate, and it talks of those who left the building worried about those who were above. It also showed the reactions of wives and friends. It was a moving expose. I would recommend this movie. I got it at the library.
Topics that interest me include, California Mormon history, Mormon Handcart history, WWII history, Civil War history
