I had to actually leave the room when the one Mother was talking to her daughter on the phone.

This is when I cried the hardest, b/c of my own daughters. Nina is away at school and so busy with her activities. Wants to be a journalist. I can just picture her all over this country someday. You have to let them go but that scene just about killed me. I love how the mother handled it too, saying my arms are around you right now.

I am still thinking of this movie this afternoon.

as far as what the terrorists looked like??...who cares really.....my only criticism of the movie is that they weren't portrayed in a more disgusting manner then they were. It's almost as though they wanted you to feel the struggle these poor Arabs must have felt having to die for the cause. BS!

Mary..I'm with you...I'm still thinking about what it must have been like for them, and the movie did a good job of putting you in their shoes.

Mary, my daughters travel all the time for business and for pleasure. I'm constantly praying for their safe arrivals. I guess that's why it really hit me and as j said the moving did a good job of putting me in that poor mother's shoes.

I just can't imagine talking to someone you love and KNOWING that will be the last time you speak with them. How do you hang up the phone? God, it was heart-wrenching to watch.

It was certainly a better version than "The Flight That Fought Back" that aired a couple of months ago.

Most definitely!!! It really did "put you there" in several parts of the movie.

(Tuesday, January 31 03:42 PM)
LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) Close to 6 million people watched A&E's dramatization of events aboard a hijacked plane on 9/11, making it the most-watched program in the cable network's history.

The movie "Flight 93" brought in 5.9 million viewers in its premiere Monday night (Jan. 30), the biggest audience for an A&E show since the network launched in 1984. About 2.66 million of those viewers were in the key adults 18-49 demographic, also a record for the network, whose programming tends to skew a little older.
