Man on Wire

To read the accolades on the DVD box, or to listen to the buzz, you would have thought that "Man on Wire" was the greatest movie ever made. It wasn't that good. But it was very well done, and very interesting. My mind is stuck on the moment where our hero describes having one foot on the wire, the other foot on the top of the World Trade Center tower and having to make the decision whether to shift his body weight to the foot on the wire.

I recommend this movie to everybody. And for those of you who don't get into documentaries, good news, they even figured out a way to slip in some gratuitous nudity.

I rate "Man on Wire" at 4 Boos.
