10/10
Unreal, even after years have passed
12 September 2010
I was living in New York City, in Greenwich Village in fact, when 9/11 happened. From our neighborhood, we could see the smoke, and that horrible smell was all over the city. On the window of Ray's Pizza, people had put their "Missing" sheets. It would be a while before a lot of people knew what happened to their loved ones. Chaos reigned.

This documentary takes video footage that various people shot and combines it. While the cameras were rolling, sometimes in people's apartments, in Times Square, out on the street near Ground Zero, you can hear comments. When the second plane hit, a young woman screams to her friend who's filming, "It's terrorists." Panic ensues. No one is safe. No one realizes the ramifications of even being in the area. They soon do, as the buildings collapse and a huge cloud chases the running crowds.

America was completely unprepared for this tragedy. The shock, the horror, the initial reactions, the rumors that started, the anger, as well as what was happenings to the buildings, it's all documented here. Truly a no-miss.
