Introduction

In the film 'World Trade Center', Stone also uses two types of sound; Diegetic (the characters and audience can hear) and non-diegetic (only the audience can hear).

Conclusion

I also feel that the film was in memory of all the heroes who died fighting to save other people, therefore they should be remembered in history for their heroic acts. However, some people saw the 'World Trade Center' film as a way of Oliver Stone making money out of devastating attack that took place. I totally disagree and think that Stone is a very thoughtful man because infact all the money went to the family's who had lost their loved ones and the people who are now seriously injured due to the tradgidy. I also think that Oliver made the public aware of how a group of evil minded terrorists could cause such utter devastation and destruction. ...read more.
