In Memoriam: New York City

2002 · 60 min · ★ 7.7 · Documentary, TV Movie

"In Memoriam" is thought-provoking and brings a viewer to tears all over again. Contains some incredible footage not seen elsewhere, including two unbelievable shots of the planes striking the towers. Also contains some new coverage of Rudy Guiliani's actions on the day of the attack - love him or hate him the city couldn't have asked for a better leader that day, and the footage bears this out.
