Wire-walk film omits 9/11 tragedy :

The director of a film about the Frenchman who wire-walked between the Twin Towers in 1974 explains why 9/11 plays no part in his documentary.
When the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center crumbled into a cloud of dust and rubble on 11 September, 2001, one man had as much cause to mourn as any.
That man was Philippe Petit, the French tightrope walker who so audaciously crossed from one to the other on the morning of 7 August, 1974.
That never-to-be-repeated feat has now inspired a feature-length documentary, Man on Wire, in which Petit and his co-conspirators detail the planning and execution of their remarkable coup.
One thing absent from the film, though, is the World Trade Center's eventual fate - a move its British director, James Marsh, calls "an easy choice to make".
