Human beings are small, sadness is huge

I have seen documentaries related to the 9/11 incident before, and I have always been impressed that when people are trapped in a high-rise building and cannot be rescued, they can only choose to jump off the building. The small life jumping up and down the building, the unreal exaggeration, makes people completely stunned for a while, unable to think and feel. Between being trapped in thick smoke and waiting to be burned to death, and jumping from hundreds of stories high to gain the last few seconds of freedom, most people choose the latter. One, appearing so small in front of that huge and towering building that it is impossible to believe that it is a real human being, that is the whole process of their end of life.

There is no way to evaluate this film. The feeling of life it brings and the documentaries I have seen before form an overall expression of macro and micro construction, and the two are inseparable. Documentaries record the whole process of events in a macroscopic scale, while movies start from individual details and emotional expressions. In fact, the whole film did not hear the loud noise of the building being attacked, but the sad voices of those who were involved in the incident were heard by everyone (the filming and performance of the film were not successful at this point, if It is difficult for those who have not experienced it personally or who have watched the documentary to understand the meaning of "extraordinarily loud and very close").

Human beings are so insignificant in front of the universe, but the voice of human sorrow resounds throughout the universe, so that we can hear it even if we are 108,000 miles away from the event.

    At first it was really the little boy who was willing to love the 5th department~~ but the department was slowly melted by the yearning and attachment to his father~~~

    There is a great mother behind every 2nd sick bear child. The perfect presentation of the Database narrative. The timeline and editing are great (why didn't I mention the sound editing award of the year?). It's a pity that the ending is sweet, greasy and hypocritical. This drama has changed my impression of Sandra Bullock a lot...
