MAN ON WIRE
Directed by James Marsh
The incredible story of Frenchman Philippe Petit's wire-walking feat suspended between New York's twin towers in 1974. Petit overcame incredible obstacles to accomplish this, managing to dance on a wire for almost a full hour, 1,350 feet in the air, before being arrested and taken for psychological evaluation. "Thrilling and profound, the movie reaches great heights." (Time Out NY) More at manonwire.com 35mm
