There is much to love about Man on Wire.
For starters, it projects the Twin Towers through a long forgotten lens. It also filled me with melancholy nostalgia over how much we've lost over the 40 years since Philippe Petit and his ragtag crew pulled off the staggering feat of breaching both towers and tethering a high wire between them--not to mention Petit's mind-numbing performance.
Aside: A glimmer of hope remains. Despite the odious and ubiquitous eyes of Big Brother, his presence has not completely squashed the spirited impetus behind such spectacles.
Now go on and add Man on Wire to your queue. It will fill you with sighs and leave you feeling high.
