Today's people who have a good life, with comfort, sleeps at night among perfumed sheets and away from any kind of annoying insects and far from mother nature, more and more. Me to.
Too many of these people forget that is a real world outside that they have forgot and their children never will know what it is. Me to.
They talk and talk without seeing there are more urgent and important things to worry about on this comfortable world, to some of us, at least, than moral concepts or ideals.
Yesterday I went to cinema and I saw World Trade Centre, of Oliver Stone, and what a lesson of civism from those who went there to help anyway, by any means and with a strong sense of humanity.
I was touched in the past and I'm touched now.
Innocents have died and we know, for sure, who they where.
I think the film is very important in perspective of human solidarity.
And more important is to never forget the involvement of the people at the needed time.
Me to.

Loving the new layout GTX, hey I'd started hearing pretty good things about that movie, actually he made one of my favourite movies 'bring out your dead' (i think) you know the Ambulance driver in NYC.
Hearing you on the Solidarity stuff dude.
Damien:
The new layout is ok, isn't it? (It's a Blogger layout).
I was starting to feel a little tired of the old one, which is cool but we always love to change a little thing here and there.
Damien, reading your blog profile I know solidarity is one, if not the main one, thing that you may call the first stone of a solid house. A family one. Without this premise, human civilisation can never go toward justice or survivor aspect. I didn't see that film that you talk (I'm not referring to Oliver Stone's WTCenter).
The lord of The rings, that brings New Zealand to the global memory, talk about that needed sharing side of civilisations and that's more needed now than it was in the past, only these days (2006 AC) we easily forget the brother, that could well be from another race or believe.
Despite I think religions, with it's rituals and lines of hierarchic thought, as well their stubborn to advance in time to preparing people on other important issues - and some religions are going too far with their hate and greed, to me, the fundamental and important role of religions it's the teaching of social laws concerning to respect, human solidarity and comprehension between all nations, but that stuff you already know.
Only I think, as José Saramago (Nobel prize of literature), that religion leaders must assemble together to make peace in the name of God.
If not, they don't believe in any kind of God, and are cheating people with their hate or greed, making believe that's religion to common believers.
You guys are right. It is about solidaririty because otherwise it's always about factionalism and sub-group identities, eh? We're all humans.
Sheryl:
We're all humans, and no one can really claim to be more human than other human is.
It's the wrong time in history to be making these movies, no matter how good they are.
Paul:
I don't know if the timing is good or not, and frankly I think that's not a big deal, the important is that in Portugal, for instance, we only have listen a few generic news and the human aspect of information was certainly left behind (at least as we see it on this film, due to several aspects; editorials, timings, other news - like those cards on TV screen) and so if the film gives information to me it's good as should be to all people in this planet, I'm only saying that film maybe was explored financially but that the minor issue, to me of course. I'm tired to listen a long time that Americans are stupid and arrogant, 'cause I find that's isn't true at all, at least a great part of them.
The film isn't good for the picture or the budget or the actors or script, it's the mixture of all that.
This movie is good in first place by showing common people saving people from a disaster.
To me.
Unless you know something that I'm not aware...
Hey thanks for the great comments GTX its always a pleasure to come here.
João
I had no idea you were a musician, or should I say composer?
Nice music
One of my cousins in the NYC fire department was one of the firemen that didn't walk away from that mess.
None of us will see him again and a commercial film loaded with fiction only ads to the injury.
I think the world knew who America was that day, it's in the days since that we've earned the worlds fear and disgust.
Damien:
Thanks a lot you seem to understand me well. You see the same way things that I see and, as I can catch, a big multitude of persons.
But do you know that some of my comments are based on ideas like the ones you have, for instance.
1138:
Thanks, computer programs gives us the time that we could never have to make such things with real instruments and persons training.
I think information is always distorted, even if that happens a little due to opposite points of view about the same issue. I believe that a director film as Oliver would like to be remembered as a Director of films with truly facts. Now I can say that a fact was all that solidarity and other fact was a particular way of feeling within those that were there on the field, and that fact sure is more real.
