Oliver Stone takes on 9/11
by Warren
When Oliver Stone is on his game, like with JFK or Nixon, he’s an incredibly solid filmmaker, able to pack a dense amount of information into a compelling, innovative package. But when he screws up, he does so in a big way (the Doors being a good example, and Alexander being an atrocity he’ll be hearing about for years to come.) He’s got a new film, “World Trade Center,” in the works, and people are justifiably worried that he’s going to sully an event that is still fresh and painful in the minds of many Americans.
