The terrorist attack on September 11, 2001 will affect our country forever. I feel I can speak for everyone in the sense that they can vividly remember every single moment of that day and the powerful emotions around them. Even though it is said that time heals these painful experiences, I don’t think a time limit can be put on such a life changing day. This tragedy will be forever extremely sensitive.
So how come movie producers are using this disaster casually in the movie world? I saw a movie this month, that I will not name incase anyone plans on seeing it, that abruptly put in 9/11 for the last ten minutes as a twist. The movie added a subtitle that it was September 11, 2001 and showed the main character in the World Trade Center moments away from death. Leaving the theater almost everyone I saw had tears in their eyes and looked completely startled. Does anyone else feel that it is way to soon and uncomfortable to simply add this in for a shock at the end of a movie?
