I wouln't be at all surprised if Schindler's List was inaccurate. However, if that movie never came out, how many people would know anything of the story?

As far as 9-11 goes, people need to remember that TriBeCa, the neighborhood immediately north of the WTC (and where I lived) has an enormous amount of entertainment industry executives and actors who love there. Also, there is a lot of cinema industry there. Unlike with other tragedies, this one will be dramatized by people who were there, and who lived through it.

There will be documenteries. I remember, for weeks, people walking around TriBeCa with hand held movie cameras. I hope that Ken or Rick Burns make such a film.
