Man on Wire Comments

    The documentary doesn't have as much impact as Goldstein's The Skywalker, but Philip's miracles add to the film's value. The film was shot seven years after the World Trade Center was bombed, but from the beginning to the end, it did not deliberately stir up the destruction of the World Trade Center, but just faithfully told the story of Philip who conquered the World Trade Center. Endless...

    The dance soundtrack in mid-air uses Michael Nyman's classic works. When I see Philippe laughing like a child on a wire 450 meters high, I think of the beautiful and mysterious notes of nude singing and dancing. It's like a...

    One of the best documentaries about French romance. Full of dreams, full of fanaticism, at all costs to make dreams come true. When success is achieved, it is also the time when a relationship...

    I watched "The Tightrope Walker" in the Film Archive tonight, the Oscar's best documentary in 2009, Philippe Petit, he is crazy, cautious, simple, persistent... from crazy and tight planning to problematic tightrope The perfect show,...

    An art film with a very "commercial" technique, which uses an interlude technique. Interlude in the climax is more capable of capturing the audience than the climax. This can be regarded as a defect or a bright spot. Breathtaking beauty. "If I died, what a beautiful death!" The film was only watched because of last year's tangled subtitle problem, but it turned out to be worth the wait in the...

    Some crime films were used, just like a documentary variant of "Eleven Arhats", but as my partner said, breaking the law but not sinful but beautiful and great. When he walked on the tightrope, his heart trembled. The dream existed before the twin towers, but after the realization, the twin towers were gone; the madness started in Notre Dame, and the tower was destroyed after more than ten years; the friendship and love that co-created miracles all stepped into the clouds and fell back together...

    walking on the brink of death

    I like the feeling of walking on the brink of death. I will be afraid, but my heart is always driven by an unstoppable desire. I must step on the tightrope and conquer!

    There is a bad boy urge in Philip's heart, always wanting to break something. However, once he steps on the tightrope, he becomes...

    Dying to live an ideal is a beautiful thing

    Philip was a dramatic man who would swagger through the streets of Paris on a unicycle and a top hat, step like Manson, disguise like 47, and talk like Dalí. If he's one of the eight arts, he definitely looks like an over-marketed churro. He talked a lot, and somehow made me play it at double...

Man on Wire quotes

  • Mark Lewis: I never doubted Philippe's talent, his prowess on the wire. It was the unforeseen things that really worried me. You know, America's a very litigious society... you know, involuntary manslaughter, assisted suicide... I didn't want to be liable for the death of a friend.

  • Sgt Charles Daniels: ...I observed the tight rope dancer... because you couldn't call him a walker... approximately half-way between the two towers. I personally figured I was watching something that somebody else would never see again in the world. Thought it was once in a lifetime.
