World Trade Center was a good movie - very sad but also very inspirational. To be honest, although the stories of Port Authority policemen John McLoughlin (Nicolas Cage) and Will Jimeno (Michael Peña) was interesting, I was much more interested in the stories of the rescue workers that went in to get them out - they were amazingly

I don't think I will Watch "world trade center" I had downloaded the other movie that dealt with the passengers from the flight that crashed, but I could not watch it. it's still too early for me to turn such events into entertainment. I almost had to force myself to watch Munich, and was happy I did, it was not all black and white as I had dreaded it. So what I mean is that I need time to be able to view the dramatization of events which consequences are still shaking and shaping our world.

I haven't been able to watch Munich yet because I was afraid I'd get really depressed and I didn't want to watch Flight 93 but my friend wanted to see it. World Trade Centre is hopeful which was why I watched it because I'm a sucker for movies about triumph of the human spirit and goodness coming out of evil :P I'm easily inspired :D

I have watched the trailer of the Painted veil, so several tings here, I love the music from the trailer ( loved, love the last samurai *g* of course ), I love Edward Norton, I love what I saw in the trailer, it gave me goose bumps !!! I have to see that movie, any idea when It is released ?

I really want to see it, too. I was hoping that as with most things, China was behind so it was already released in the US and on dvd already but it looks like it's an upcoming release. I have no idea when it's coming out because the trailer doesnt say. The only thing I worry about is that when it comes out in China, I'll bet they won't subtitle any Chinese language bits and I will have to rely on facial expressions and body language :D
