Man On Wire


(If anyone follows this thing, I'm posting the movies from Thursday and Friday today, and will watch something today and hopefully get it up tonight)

I wanted a documentary, just for the hell of it, so I chose last years best documentary winner from the Oscars. I'd heard the filmmaking itself wasn't amazing, but the actual story was pretty cool. It also had movie-esque qualities with a lot of re-enactments and the soundtrack being essential. 

2 Sentences Or Less: A feat I had never heard of before, this was a great story about a man rigging a wire between the WTC. It was cool to learn about, but not a great movie by historical standards. 

Current Rank: This one is right in the middle, but sure to move down once I get into the heavy hitters coming up (One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Next, Deer Hunter, and the 50s and 60s movies). I promise a full ranking is coming in the next post.
