Flight 93 was not a very exaggerated movie, it is filled with raw emotions of those who had to say goodbye to their families.

The movie was a perfect replica of the US government’s press release of what happened during 9/11. Some large details however were non-existent in the movie.…

    9/11 Narrative Analysis

    The idea of a narrative is to tell a story, the events occurring on the day of September 11, 2001 will provide an opportunity to relay my feelings, moving beyond the initial pure and basic anger at those responsible for such a desperate act. The image shows two emergency responders in the cloud of debris left by the collapse of the Trade Centers and what drew me to this picture is what they must have been talking about. The questions and issues I initially considered included: the loss of life; the tremendous devastation; and are there more survivors, where these possibilities could only be confirmed by talking to the individuals in the picture. Instead, I decided that the picture will be used as a metaphor to relay my awareness of the incident,…

    In this counterfactual version, the Nazi symbol was also appropriated. Lieutenant Aldo Raine would carve the symbol on the forehead of the German soldiers he spared. Raine did not like the idea that they would not be recognized as Nazis if they were to discard their uniforms. Therefore, carving the Nazi symbol on their forehead with a knife would leave a distinctive scar they could not take off, embalming them with the distinction for the rest of their lives. In the movie industry, this film fits…
