I just got back from going to the movies with Des - we ended up seeing World Trade Center. Wow. It was a powerful movie - much like United 93 was. Obviously, both covered 9/11, but different aspects - United 93 was about the plane that went down in the field in Pennsylvania, and World Trade Center was about the policemen who were trapped.
The movie started out with people getting up to work that morning. It was just a normal Tuesday morning. Nobody could imagine what would actually happen that day. It's weird - so much, like the attack on America that day, could happen in just a day. Any day. It could happen tomorrow...hell, it could happen 5 minutes from now. It's scary, and yet something you can't think about. But still, it makes you think.
One of the characters in the movie did not know where her son was - she also said that the last time she saw him, she yelled at him for something...now she just wanted to hold him. It also made me think - I don't always get along with my parents, or siblings, or friends, etc, but I know I was feel SO guilty if we left each other on a bad note, then something happened to them.
Similarly, there were so many other characters that didn't know where their family members were that day - whether they be part of the police or fire department, or workers in the buildings. I could not imagine what they went through, sitting, wondering, waiting to find out if their loved ones were alive or not. That has got to be one of the worst things imaginable!
Anyway, that was just a few small thoughts about the movie - it was really good though. And I'm sure I'd have more to say, but instead, it's time to sleep! G'nite all!
