Man On Wire


It is time to introduce you to one of my favorite movies, many of you might already have seen the masterpiece but maybe for some of you it went unnoticed in your area. Let me introduce you to Philippe Petit, funambule, master of the high-wire walk! Contrary toCoco, Philippe always knew what his destiny would be, including many major stunts between the towers of Notre Dame De Paris, on the Sydney Harbor Bridge, and the Eiffel Tower. At the age of 19, he decided that he would attempt to walk in between the yet to be constructed and not forgotten Twin Towers. The movie takes you on his sometimes comical, sometimes fearful, sometimes extraordinary journey to his grandiose "Coup de funambule". Simply Breathtaking!
