36. Not shock, just sadness. |
|
I don't live in NYC; didn't visit the towers on my one trip to that wonderful city. But shots of the Manhattan skyline used in "Moonstruck" feature them prominently--often at night, windows ablaze under a full moon. They make me very sad.
The stories of (almost) everyone's reaction to that day--even those of us far away--makes me wonder again. About our "President's" reaction--strolling into a schoolroom & sitting like a bump on the log throughout the dreadful events. Then getting to bed early that evening--when many of us were still riveted to the TV.
Correction: I've stopped wondering about his non-reaction. Now, I believe I know the reason.
