A truly great movie with lots of fantastic performances. I've seen this movie at least twice and it never gets old. I wish for subtitles, as what's being said can be a bit hard to decipher. Even though I know he lives, and none of this is real (CGI) this movie still gives me serious fear of heights, even on a tiny screen. The doc on him "Man on Wire" drags at times, but the ending, where his photo shows him sitting on the WTC roof to composer Eric Satie (Gymnopedie 1 or 3, both are great songs) . If it sounds familiar, it was also used in a Benny Hill skit where a girl dances out of a poster with a wink. I remembered it clearly from a good 35 years ago on the Benny Hill show before there was Internet. Very touching scene.
