After having little luck with the epic pic Alexander, Oliver Stone is ready to continue with historical events; just not so far back. In his latest go at history, Stone and Paramount Pictures have teamed up with Nicolas Cage to bring a major story from 9/11 to the bigscreen-- World Trade Center.
World Trade Center Movie Stills
Academy Award®-winning director Oliver Stone tells the true story of the heroic survival and rescue of two Port Authority policemen – John McLoughlin and Will Jimeno – who were trapped in the rubble of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001, after they went in to help people escape. The film also follows their families as they try to find out what happened to them, as well as the rescuers who found them in the debris field and pulled them out. Their story shows how the best in people rose above the tragic events of that day.

Only 20 people were rescued alive from the World Trade Center after the collapse of the buildings. Officer Jimeno and Sgt. McLoughlin were the 18th and 19th.
Without a trailer it is hard to tell what the film will concentrate on more-- the people searching for the Port Authority policemen, the victims families or the trapped individuals themselves.
World Trade Center will come to theatres some time in August.
