Have not seen either for that exact reason...it is still too traumatic for me as I was on my way to work that morning and was still watching GOOD MORNING AMERICA..as they were just about to sign off...and that is when it happened...never did get to work that day..the shock of seeing it as it happened and not knowing what the hell was going on...I was just standing there right in front of the screen frozen and scared to death.

And think of it this way, the people who went thru Pearl Harbor in 1941..they finally were able to watch the horror in TORA TORA TORA in 1970 and then in 2001 Disney could do PEARL HARBOR true to life; but do the math, that is 30 odd years the first time and 60 years for the second movie.

Now, comparing the two subjects, we are still healing and the monument is still a large crater...and for thousands, their loved ones are still among the missing. These could have waited to be done for another twenty or thirty years. The wounds are still too fresh. Pearl Harbor for most of us, was another time and place and media not as immediate and "in your face"--just newspaper coverage--no TV-no internet-it was not the time for these.
