First reaction: Booooooooooring.
Second reaction: Well..maybe there's...nah, still boring.
I'll write it off as someone's personal tribute to 9/11, pretty well done, pretty clean images (as best they could gather, I'm sure).
This didn't pull any more of an emotional response mainly because all the images they used I have seen probably hundreds of times before and am numb to now. The quotes used were said in a time when our country was very small compared to now, not nearly as globally powerful or wealthy as we are now and so are just a bit out of context. Well meaning and generally relevant, but out of context. And I was put off a bit by the assumption that the viewer HAS forgotten what happened, how it happened and why. Seeing how I hadn't forgotten and I know damn well what time of year it is, I feel the piece wasn't really speaking to me.
Nice flash, well done. At least they haven't forgotten. Now to find something that I can attach an emotion to...ahhh, Wyrd Sisters.
