I remember vividly the actual events and how totally stunned everyone was...a real travesty and tragedy. This is before we had been numbed by so many terror atrocities since. Dont know if we'll catch it at the theater but sure will be in my top 5 to rent in a coupla months. Spielberg has a real way with this type of subject matter, Meanwhile in the background the TV is on some news network detailing all the hostages being kidnapped and held and threatened with their own death, while the captors try to blackmail the world. Hope the movie tells it like is was.
