Man on Wire is a British documentary based on the events leading up to the Frenchman Philippe Petit's amazing high-wire walk between the World Trade Center Twin Towers in 1974. The movie tells the story with film footage of the events leading up to the walk as well as interviews of the key players that facilitated this feat. The movie tells a greater story of obsession, determination, persistence and the ups and downs that can happen both leading up to a dream and upon attaining that dream.I found myself mesmerized at the whole process and what it took to do such an amazing feat. This movie won the Academy Award for best documentary for 2008.
