I very much appreciate your discussion of a scene in F9/11. I think you are among the first to truly address this, short of perhaps a few more vague comments on scenes of note. And, certainly, to this extent, I can not discuss the film. Furthermore, I certainly would not want to stand in the way of FilmWurld participants discussing scenes in this way. In fact, I'd probably enjoy reading such comments and might even feel pressed to go see the movie myself.

The question I have about your scene is... what is its significance in the movie? Human tragedy on film can be deeply evocative; Moore is hardly the first nor necessarily the best at capturing it. Especially when skillfully filmed (as I have no doubt Moore can do), these scenes are powerful and moving. But, how is it used? Does it forward Moore's thesis? Or, has he simply captured an emotional outburst, however moving, and used it to play on the sensitivities and emotion of the audience? What is the context of the scene (what comes before it and immediately after it)?

And, why could we not now discuss this scene that you've presented? I may not be able to comment as one who has seen it--and therefore need to rely on your help--but I can ask questions about it and together we can begin an insightful discussion of Moore's technique. Or, perhaps that requires more time and patience than people are willing to put in?
