I hate to sound cliched, but this really was a fantastic film, definitely one of the best I've ever seen. It was very well made for a documentary, combining historical footage, interviews, and reenactments. The movie culminates in Philippe Petit's wire walk between the world trade centers in NYC. He ends up spending about 45 minutes walking back and forth, dancing on this wire suspended at the top of the world. What's especially overwhelming about the experience is that it will never be reproduced and it is a miracle that it ever even occurred to begin with. They came so close to getting caught by security guards, conditions had to be just right for the team to actually get Petit on the wire.
