Why aren't the World Trade Center Twin Towers being rebuilt taller,
stronger, and safer? Why is what pretty much everyone took for
granted on September 12, 2001, not coming true? Why are iconic
110-story Towers being replaced with a bunch of shorter buildings
topped by pointless spires? Ten years after the original disaster
and ten years into the disaster that is the rebuilding process, New
Yorkers and out-of-towners from all walks of life come forward to
tell the story of the second destruction of the World Trade Center,
not at the hands of terrorists, but at the hands of politicians,
builders, and activists, who sacrificed the world's most famous
landmark to their own narrow interests and thus perpetuated the
destruction wreaked by the terrorists. The tales they have to tell
are not pretty: stories of corruption, venality, opportunism,
greed, short-term thinking, irrationality, incompetence, cowardice,
and betrayal. Keeping the Twin Towers destroyed did not even
require a grand conspiracy. All it took was the business as usual
of New York politics. The twin behemoths of City Hall and Albany
were all it took to make sure that rebuilding the icons of New
York, America, and the free world was sacrificed to collectivist
gain and the short-term political advantage of a few politicians
pandering to vocal minorities, victim family members, and
politically connected builders. Together, these essays mesh into a
kaleidoscopic epic of how the worst of mankind was first met with
the best of man, only to be thwarted by the worst of contemporary
politics.

Award-winning director Joe Wright envelops movie lovers in a symphony of emotions with music, romance, and beauty in Cyrano, re-imagining the timeless tale of a heartbreaking love triangle.
Cyrano de Bergerac dazzles with both ferocious wordplay and brilliant swordplay, but is convinced that his appearance makes him unworthy of the love of his devoted friend, Roxanne, who has fallen in love at first sight with Christian.
