"7 Days in September"

Although I missed the last half of the movie, “7 Days in September” affected the way that I view the tragedy of September 11th, 2001. Because I was so young when it happened, I never really or knew what was actually happening in New York. It was really scary to actually see the building collapse, and all the smoke that it produced. It’s sad to see all the people that were affected by event because they gave the situation human characteristics and feelings. This movie also proved how this tragedy brought the people o f the United States together. People were all helping each other during and after the buildings collapsed. It was nice to see everyone working together and helping one another despite the differences that normally separate them. It’s sad that it seems that Americans need something tragic to happen in order to come together. Despite the multiple times that this has happened and the country finally seems united, we always fall back into our old ways instead of learning from these experiences and seeing the good in working together.
