Brief comment

I just wanted to write something after watching this movie yesterday. As another inspirational work stolen from "Forrest Gump", it makes people understand the true nature of art and the madman-like pursuit of real artists.
But this work is far less shocking than "Forrest Gump". Maybe I was a little afraid of heights, and I was especially nervous when watching the movie, but when he was praised after completing the aerial performance of the Twin Towers It was a little shocking, but there was no more aftertaste after that.
I think this movie is not as good as "The Burst Drummer" in the pursuit of art. In fact, we all know that there is a devil and a lunatic in the heart of a real artist, who makes him do crazy actions to pursue the essence of art. Wow, the movie is so inspiring that the characters lose what art should be.
Finally, I have to mention that the audience of this movie, after watching the movie, heard the first two girls saying that this movie is not a CG special effect, and it is nothing. It can be seen that not everyone can accept or understand this movie. The artistic spirit of the film.

    Seeing Phillipe kneeling down on the steel cable was instantly knocked down by a sudden sense of sacredness, tears fell down, and the close-up of the twin towers at the end brought sadness even more unspeakable. Must see IMAX 3D

    Life is hanging by a thread, every step is scary, and the film is exclusively for patients with acrophobia. It also has miraculous effects on heart disease and high blood pressure.

The Walk quotes

  • Papa Rudy: Most wire walkers, they die when they arrive. They think they have arrived... But they are still on the wire. If you have three steps to do, and if you do those steps arrogantly... if you think you are invincible... You are going to die!

  • Philippe Petit: [atop the south tower for the first time] I find myself standing on an island floating in mid-air... at the edge of the void. And of course, I automatically look at the opposite tower. But now, I had to dare... to look... Down. Now I know what the void is. I'm a wire-walker. The void is my domain. But not this void. But somehow I gather the strength to whisper, whisper so the demons won't hear. It's impossible... But I'll do it.
