As a person who lived in NY and went to school in Tower One right after it was open, I totally enjoyed learning more about that horrible day. I was living overseas at the time and completely in shock as to the turn of events. 7 Days in September puts faces, to sounds, to fear - reality is right there on the scren for all of us who were not in NYC at the time. And the pride one feels at how we all came together - another priceless film not to be forgotten.

9/11 Revisited

"7 Days in September is the finest film that I have seen yet regarding the tragedy of 11September2001. It shows how the people of New York came together in a way that they never have before (and, with the tragic way our country has become so fiercely partisan since then) haven't since.
Being a radical movie buff myself, there are very few movies that I would say are a must see. But 7 Days in September is a must see in order to understand what happened. This documentary brings back the tragedy of that day and all the feelings associated with it.
Buy it here at Amazon, rent it at a video store (if you must) or even borrow it from a friend. But, if you remember that horrific time, watch this movie and share it with others. The beginning of overcoming the problem of radical hatred is understanding the what, who, how and why. This film will aid you in that."
That Dreadful Day

"I bought this DVD more for the history behind it rather than something to view. I had put it to one side and when Amazon asked for my views I decided that I would have to bite the bullet and watch it.
I was watching tv when the pictures of the two planes flying into first one then the second of the Twin Towers flashed onto the screen so I had already seen the horror and destruction first hand so to speak.
This DVD showed what happened to the Twin Towers, it did not glory in it. It gave anyone who had not seen the catastrophe an idea of what had happened on that day, and for several days afterwards.
I had seen all the news footage but it is surprising how quickly we forget. I had forgotten how the crowds had stood at the side of the road and cheered and clapped the emergency workers as they had gone to and fro to that awful scene.
I am glad I bought the DVD, I am glad I watched it, and I will save it as a reminder of a day in the world's history.

"Most of the documentaries i've seen about 9/11 capture moments during the attack however for 7 days in September, it showed how Americans went on with life trying to cope with their lost ones after the horrible ordeal. You can purely see the love, encouragement and support from the people of America towards one another after that fateful day for about a week or so which like the video say, you rarely see on the streets. Strangers arguing with each other and then hugging each other to say sorry, crying with one another and giving hope to the people next to them. I would highly recommend this to anyone who want to watch something different from 9/11 other than the usual destruction of WTC. Definitely will move you to tears."
