Films don't change the world, but they can make people talk. And they can make you look at the world with fresh eyes. This movie provides a credible, authentic portrait of that day, and it allows us to draw some wisdom from it.

The question is, do we? - Paul Greengrass Quotes

Some people will not want to see the film. People find the subject too hard. I respect that. Remembering is painful. But it can be inspiring and it can bring wisdom. - Paul Greengrass Quotes
