Shortly after we witnessed the horrific events of the terrorist's attacks there was an overwhelming consensus that Hollywood should stay way from this. The pain was too strong. It would disrespect the families and it would be a cheap endeavor to make a movie about something so terrible.

Five years later, there have been several documentaries and now filmmakers are staging to release motion pictures on 9/11. While I'm not ready to see what Oliver Stone has to offer, A&E's Flight 93 is the first dramatization of 9/11 that I've seen.

Forget about its TV budget, the acting or any other faults the movie may have. This is a simple yet sustaining movie that will pull you from the heart. This movie depicts with profound reverence a brave group of souls who knew they were going to die. And, that the instrument of their deaths could not be used to kill other innocent people. It's a movie about people and their families. It's about strangers united, bravery and determination. I want to see this movie again and share it with others.

Thank you A&E for producing a respectful, illuminating film.
