Man on Wire
I have seen many movies, and of those, only a small handful have I considered to be perfect. The 2007 documentary Man on Wire has joined this small list. It chronicles Philippe Petit's 1974 walk across the Twin Towers on a thin wire illegally strung up by a small group of friends and accomplices. The story itself is astounding, but everything about the movie is flawless, from the score to the editing to the cinematography. Man on Wire is funny, riveting, and beautiful. See it at your earliest convenience.
