This movie is an amazing example of someone following their dream. Even more amazing are the number of people who were willing to help Philippe Petit achieve his life long dream. He must be very persuasive!
But what struck me more than Philippe's achievement was the footage of the World Trade Center Towers. Especially today - as the one remaining steel wall returns to Ground Zero to become part of a monument to the people who perished on 9/11/01.
In this movie, you see those steel frames going up for the first time, you see the buildings emerge as two completed works of architecture - and art.
And, sadly, this movie shows how a man with a dream can get past even vigilant security when his passion is all consuming.
